@Taj_Ali1 Did police attend within 7 minutes? Would be interesting to know how long it took.

@MartinSLewis warning for anyone travelling to Turkey, this summer! even with a Chase card, Turkish banks charge 8% for any cash withdrawal even in local currency . Used to vary now EVERY Turkish bank. Also, some bank ATM will eat your card and not return. odeabank is 1!

@BBCPolitics Big respect to him for speaking out.Unlike the rest of the @UKLabour , he will be on the right side of history. @wesstreeting is a pitbull, empowered & entitled, he has always been outspoken & vocal. He won’t go quietly. Starmer will come off worse for even trying. Bring it on.

"I'd say to the Israeli embassy, get your own house in order"
Health Secretary Wes Streeting responds to Israel's claims on Glastonbury's "glorification of violence", saying "Israeli settler terrorists" carried out "unwanton acts of violence"

The wisdom of @MayorofLondon never ceases to amaze. Visit an any psychiatric ward to see the number of young people whose youth has been destroyed by cannabis psychosis. mft.nhs.uk/app/uploads/20…

@istanbulbld Why if smoking is banned on the beautiful Istanbul vapurs do you do nothing to stop it? You would make a fortune in fines. Every journey there at least 4 people smoking around me 🤮 Disgusting

@MartinSLewis @mmhpi Can you name the worst offending local authorities?
English
@MartinSLewis @mmhpi Thank you Martin. State sanctioned & facilitated bullying of those unable to manage their finances because of health issues or who cannot afford to heat their home and eat let alone pay council tax is an embarrassment to one of the wealthiest countries in the world.
English
Warning: Miss one month’s council tax payment & it could ask you to pay the whole year bill within weeks. Council tax debt collection is far worse than finance firms. It’s destructive especially for those with mental health issues. My speech at @MMHPI campaign launch

@iocmedia Those at the helm of this organisation should be held to account for allowing this disgraceful abuse of women. Disgusting. Female competitors should pull out.

@JulySep53 Astonishing. To hear my @UKLabour Cllr deny my lived experience and tell a working mother they can home school is arrogance and ignorance belief.
English
Just attended the council meeting
Tory councillor- lied
Labour councillor- no interest whatsoever in human rights of Turkish Cypriots.
We were denied right of confronting them with their lies

As a resident, I’m fed up with Barnet Council normalising anti-Turkish bias and hate. It’s time to speak out! – T-VINE @grace_repoEN1 t-vine.com/as-a-resident-…

@lizslayed @Airbnb To add insult to injury. I gave him, a French National a character reference for British Citizenship unaware of his fraud and deceit! He got the citizenship @ukhomeoffice. How do SOME tenants live with themselves. The stuff of @Channel4 documentaries.
English
@lizslayed I had a tenant illegally sublet on @AirBnB for 8 years b4 I found out. He had 1 rent increase in 20 yrs. presented false documents to the court. Was making fraudulent housing benefit claims and left owing £14k in arrears. How do SOME tenants live with themselves.
English
@AngelaRayner @MayorofLondon @ @EstherMcVey1 any party serious about addressing the housing crisis need only perform a quick search on @Airbnb to see the no. of U.K. properties out of circulation because of Airbnb. Not to mention illegal, uninsured, unregulated. 🐘 in the room.

@ozlemsturkishta the Portakalı Revani recipe in #sebze is the best version of any semolina/ polenta, yoghurt 🍊 cake anywhere, ever! I doubled the recipe and cooked for 1hr 10 minutes. Top notch recipe, everyone demanded some to take home. Just delicious 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👌🏽

NB -Lucy D’Orsi + @BTP your continued use of the phrase ‘British Africans’ is testimony to your ongoing stupidity + institutional racism. An apology should start with empathetic, heartfelt apology and plan to restore confidence & compensate families involved. Nothing’s changed
English
The most upsetting story of innocent people who were the victims of corrupt @BTP, the families need compensating for lives and opportunities denied. Justice aft nearly 50 years for wrongly convicted Saliah Mehmet, but still no police apology to his family t-vine.com/?p=21962

@mikecmorgan Just too disturbing to watch- 2nd week in a row, the footage is too upsetting, blood boiling. Can just imagine the abuse of position & power up & down the country.

All fly on the wall docs following police I’ve seen amount to copaganda. Not this.
‘To Catch A Copper’ reveals how unfit for purpose holding snide coppers to account really is.
Watch tonight at 9pm on Channel 4.

@MayorofLondon @luhc if you were committed to resolving the U.K. & Ldn housing crisis you would BAN @Airbnb illegal subletting of social and private housing is stealing housing stock from those in need, It’s corrosive & damaging to communities. This is obvious low hanging fruit.

@ZaraM01 There are no words for ‘people’ who would inflict this calculated terror on the infirm at their most vulnerable. Let history never forget nor forgive.
