@wrbski @DanNeidle Child benefit isn't capped at 2 kids. Child tax credit and universal credit are.

@DanNeidle Why three children? Don't you only get Child Benefit for the first two now? Or are we talking about people who had three children before that limit was brought in, in which case your specific example fixes itself in a few years?

A thread on the Budget tax cut nobody's talking about, why we need more, and why this chart is a disgrace.

@candiwrites Did do, but had so much exposure I can tolerate it ok now. Big difference for me is the person. Some people are amazing and I hardly notice. Others are not, it's painful and I start to panic. If I know it's not working, I'll get them to stop and get the hell out of there.

@skullsnsheets @LRBbookshop Crab cakes, surely

the set menu at the booker pre-awards dinners are normally very seafood heavy but this goes above & beyond, especially the choice of mains

If you're in Glasgow and are interested in accessibility, come to this event on Thursday: meetu.ps/e/M50zl/vd2Wr/i

@Amy_Hupe 😮

The thing is that no normal person would ever speak this way to a cleaner #UXWriting #ContentDesign

@usefulkarl @Content_Folks Thanks Karl ☺️

@mcfadyen_jane Thank you Jane!

@LauraParkerUX @melreylaw Sorry to hear this. I get this sometimes and it's terrifying. It sounds like it possibly could be sleep apnoea? Worth looking up if you've not heard of it.

@LauraParkerUX @mcfadyen_jane @GirlCalledMalic Yes! It's a great talk and seems particularly relevant for ONS! Paging @RhiaWeston.

I had a lovely time meeting the ONS content design team today 😊 They're looking for speakers. Go on, do it.

@RhiaWeston And if you're thinking about doing something like this for the first time, let's have a chat. I've got lots of tips I'd love to share.

The fantastic @fi_brook spoke at our #ContentDesign Community of Practice yesterday about the psychology of #impostersyndrome and how to handle it and use it to your advantage. If you’ve got a talk to share with us, please DM me - we’re always on the hunt for guest speakers

@LauraParkerUX @mcfadyen_jane @Content_Folks Some more tickets have been just released if you're still keen 😊

I'm speaking @Content_Folks at the end of April. It's free and online if you want to come along!

@LauraParkerUX What is the most senior content position/who does content design report into?

UX peeps: I’m seeing more & more ppl recognize the deep trauma that many of us carry from a career full of relentlessly having to “prove our value.” I’d love to discuss ideas for how to create teams and cultures that don’t cause this trauma. Anyone up for a chat/group brainstorm?

@La_Pope Really recommend this place: pierhousehotel.co.uk I had a very relaxing stay there last month.

@LauraParkerUX @mcfadyen_jane @Content_Folks Enquiring, will let you know!

@Amy_Hupe @upfrontglobal See you there 👋 Going on my own, don't know anyone and haven't had time to get involved in the pre-event chat. So would love a 'hello'.

This weekend I'm going to @upfrontglobal's conference in Glasgow. The friend I was supposed to be going with has Covid 😢 so I'm now going solo. That means: 1) We have a spare ticket if anyone fancies it? 2) I need friends! Let me know if you're going and fancy saying hello!
