A junior said "Good morning" to me in the elevator. I checked my watch. It was 11:00 AM. I looked at him. "It's almost lunch," I said. "You're three hours late to the concept of morning." He tried to explain he'd been at his desk since 7. I interrupted and told him accuracy matters more than intent. I emailed his reviewer suggesting he take a CLE on time management. He apologized later. I didn't reply. I forwarded the apology to HR as proof of his inefficiency. Greetings are risky. He learned an important lesson. Never speak to a partner in the elevator. Unless spoken to.

@AboutEG The app and display boards seem to have become increasingly unreliable recently. Some times the app seems to show estimated time/position for an on-time service rather than real time location tracking & departure time? When "on-time" passes all info disappears!

This morning's 10:05 MB270 from EG Station confused people waiting for it. It disappeared from the display, so passengers thought it must be cancelled, then two buses for the same service arrived almost at the same time. I guess the driver of one of them was due for a break. 🚍

@DavidPintoD The playbook of “the Starmer project”, keep telling the same lies over and over and some folks may start to believe what they are hearing is true.

I’ve been in Gorton and Denton today and the message from the doorstep could not be clearer. Only Labour, united under Keir Starmer’s leadership, can deliver the change people want and tackle the cost of living crisis. He has my full support

@L2_J2 @MrsNickyClark @wesstreeting Along the same lines, I had two female nurses prep me for a cystoscopy and have had female nurses remove my post-surgery urinary catheters! Could/should I have asked for male nurses? TBH not sure I would want a bloke fettling around down there...

@MrsNickyClark @wesstreeting It's a difficult one, isn't it. My female doctor does both my prostate exam and my testicular cancer check up. As an older man, it can be difficult to retain a degree of modesty when a younger woman asks you to remove your clothes for the examination.

Are we allowed to say no to this @wesstreeting or is it just going to be done to women like everything else in the NHS? It’s our health service too & if we don’t want men to perform our mammograms we should be allowed to refuse or do older women not matter bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@afneil Hopefully the extra funds can build/rebuild UK defence industry & not just get spent on (more) US kit!

Swedish PM Ulf Kristersson to raise defence spending from 2.4% of GDP to 3.5% by 2030. All four parties that support Mr Kristersson’s government agreed to the increase, in part because of “uncertainty with the transatlantic relationship”. Britain should follow suit. Reeves claim that raising our defence spending to 2.5% will make us ‘a defence industry superpower’ is risible.

People are not moving house because Stamp Duty is so high. This means they don’t buy new sofa & toasters & ladders & lawnmowers, they don’t free up bigger properties or employ agents, lawyers & removal men. Yes, prices are too high. yes we have a shortage of suitable homes in

Anyone who really thinks that a relatively tiny increase in defence spending is either 'ratcheting up' or especially, putting the nation 'on a war footing' has NO concept of what is required to ready our diminished Armed Forces for a sustained conflict with a major power.
Beth Rigby@BethRigby

PM puts Britain on war footing as he ratchets up defence spending. His closing statement. "At moments like these in our past Britain has stood up to be counted, it has come together and demonstrated strength. That is what the security of our country needs now and it is what we will deliver"

@CllrJRussell46 @AboutEG Drove along it this morning and it is like a slalom course avoiding all the potholes! Saw Highways guy seemingly inspecting the potholes that have opened up on A22 both north & south side of the Imberhorne Lane lights. Hopefully the jet patcher can add these to the to-do list!

@JamesMelville Can anyone explain the justification for levels of Stamp Duty when buying a house? I could understand a registration fee of (say) £200 to register the transaction, but why should a property in SE pay more than a similar property costing much less elsewhere?

Inheritance tax is a cruel and vindictive tax. People pay their taxes all their working lives and then grieving families pay tax after the death of a loved one. It’s a shameful government taxation overreach and a heartless death theft of a life’s work.

@JeremySonander @AngelaRayner I would like to downsize, but by the time I have paid estate agent fees, solicitor fees, removal fees, and in particular STAMP DUTY, it's not really worth it!

My parents are in the process of moving house into a new build. T&C of the new build purchase meant they were committed to paying for it within 2 weeks of it being completed, and that happened slightly ahead of schedule. The chain could not bring their move forward. As a result they have two properties briefly, and got slammed for an extra 5% stamp duty. While it’s possible to claim it back, and they will do that, I was amazed that it was necessary to pay it at all on a property that is replacing your primary residence. It’s an extra pile of paperwork for the government and the home buyer, and my parents had to pay penalties to liquidate savings ahead of the investment term end date to fund the extra stamp duty. The government wont be paying those penalties back. How about fixing this?

Tyre-screeching ice and shimmering snow melted away overnight, disappointing the hopes of skidding kids, snowball makers and imagined snowmen. Rainmen exist only in the imaginations of their lateral minds. Nothing is impossible. ❄️

What’s happening? I hear on the News of a tidal wave of people with flu flooding the hospitals. A 70% increase in patients in a year! What? In my day we didn’t go to hospital with flu. If you got flu you stayed at home for a few days until you got over it. What’s happening?

In case anyone else isn't aware, mail delivery to Canada is suspended due to ongoing industrial action there. The Post Office isn't accepting mail for Canada, not even letters or cards. They sold me the appropriate stamp, but said not to post it until the suspension ends. 📮
