How very, very sad. observer.co.uk/news/national/…

@CrossCountryUK Thanks for suggesting I complain. What a pointless exercise. Pages of waffling explanation about why atrocious is perfectly acceptable. Hope your processes and service improve soon.

@VanessaGrayLock Sorry Vanessa. We'd advise you to submit a formal complaint via our customer relations team. To do so, please email the full details to customer.relations@crosscountrytrains.co.uk. Apologies again for the poor service. ^LA

@CrossCountryUK on the 10.52 York to Totnes. £230. Sitting on floor between toilet and bin with 14 others in this space. 4 carriages instead of 6. Other trains cancelled. Driver apologetic and great communication but it doesn't actually help does it. I expect some money back 😠

@simon_reeve Really wish you'd move to BlueSky and gradually leave the X Musk channel please Simon? It's cool and it's ethical, you know it makes sense 🙏🦋

And this ... one of the best from #DesertIslandDiscs. A perfect story @IanWright0

Our NHS is not for sale. Trade talks with Trump must not open the door to US healthcare companies profiting from our NHS. Keir Starmer must protect our NHS by keeping it off the table during negotiations. Add yvour name to 38 Degrees’ petition: 38d.gs/16oq

@RevRichardColes @elonmusk And what has it got to do with him? Does he think that buying his way into right wing american politics means the British should be interested in his opinions?

Leaving this corrupt platform for all the same reasons that others are stating as they leave in droves. See you on Bluesky, might be better and only one way to find out. 😉

The face of evil 😪 How can this happen in the 21st century...

@SonyUK The button for telly has been disabled a few months ago, yeah sorry we're working on it. Buy a tv for hundreds then end up with a workaround solution. When is this going to be sirted please? sony.co.uk/electronics/su…

This week, 19 Afghan women have started medical studies in Scotland thanks to the Linda Norgrove Foundation. This Scottish initiative must be the start of a world-wide effort to end the Taliban's violation of girls' rights. scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…

There can be no excuses. The UK riots were violent racism fomented by populism | David Olusoga theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@RobertLindsay Thinking of you

Thank you all for your love and support. Lola is now at rest and free from pain. Her life with us has been so joyous but the hardest thing about it was saying goodbye. Our hearts are broken but they will heal with the love we shared with her❤️

It's impossible to view the postings of Farage, without utter revulsion. He masquerades as a " reasoned commentator" on what he claims to be a national crisis linked to immigrants while claiming he deplores any lawlessness. Then he hints at more lawlessness if his warnings are not heeded. The reality is that his entire political future is dependent on fomenting confrontation and division. It is by creating a climate of crisis that he has got where he has. And some of my former Conservative colleagues have argued the Conservatives should be linking up with Reform! Perhaps this shameful episode will open their eyes to his malevolence.

“Babe, love ya, but I’m working right now”
