@RachelReevesMP Not like this pesky pensioners who don't work but expect to be able to heat there homes.

We are fighting every day to kick start economic growth to make working people better off.
That is why we are backing the builders, not the blockers. bbc.com/news/articles/…

@TimSweeneyEpic @tomadlam @9to5mac @benlovejoy so the thief should get way with it? Might not be as costly loss for you but thankfully Apple looks after the little guys.
English

A lot of people are saying this here. While technically true, it misses the point: you can't track the location of a device that's in someone's possession without tracking that person, and people have a right to privacy. This right applies to second hand device buyers and even to thieves. This right isn't absolute, in that it can be overcome through due process of law in the case of stolen devices, and I think that due process of law is the responsible way to handle these situations.

Why can nobody on NI do this maths?
Brent Toderian@BrentToderian
The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife

@JimAllister We will all be better off when mercury fillings are banned. The health problems from old fillings leaching contents into body are widely reported.

@timmckane @SJAMcBride @BBCNolan @JimAllister I think you will find the BBC is responsible for all content they produce and air. It is a derogation of that responsibility to say any journo has a free rain to do what they want.
English

@SJAMcBride @BBCNolan @JimAllister No, it’s not, as you well know. The BBC has no control over @BBCNolan. You are suggesting that the only alternative voice to the DUP was to fill airtime was @JimAllister. It is an editorial failure to limit the number of topics discussed on a programme paid for by us.

No one swaggered like Ian Paisley Jr. When he had power, he boasted, insulted, and loved money. Yet with more discipline and maturity, he could have been DUP leader. Instead, his downfall is a Biblical tale of pride and greed going before a fall.

@irish_news Pat is not being asked to apologise just to condemn the bomb that killed the nurse. That is what any other nurse should do. She was an innocent victim and deserves the support of Pat. To not condemn the bomb will lose her votes in the election.

The Gambling Commission is investigating “many” other individuals who bet on the July election, I understand, in a widening scandal that is undermining Rishi Sunak’s general election campaign.
After the Tory candidate and ex PPS to Sunak, Craig Williams, placed a £100 bet on a July election, the booking giant Entain, owner of Ladbrokes and Corals, notified the Commission.
Entain made the disclosure to the Commission because Williams as an MP (before parliament was dissolved) was classified as a Politically Exposed Person in relevant law.
The Commission then wrote to all the gambling companies requesting details of any individual who had bet £20 or more on that July election within days of the PM calling it on 22 May.
This initial trawl yielded what industry sources say were “many names” and since then the Commission has been combing through the internet and social media to establish who they are and whether they have links to the Conservative Party or government.
“It is a tried and trusted investigatory process” said a source. “It is pretty straightforward to work out who might have had access to privileged information about the timing of the election and to identify their mates”.
According to a source, the Commission has identified persons of interest in addition to the Tory officials Tony Lee and Nick Mason, who have taken leave of absence from their jobs with the party, and the candidates Williams and Laura Saunders, who continue to campaign as official Tory candidates.
A police officer who was part of Sunak’s protection team has been suspended and arrested following the Commission’s investigation.
“The PM seemingly hopes the scandal will just die down” said a source. “That looks naïve at best”.

@patcullen9 I think you are losing votes because in not condemning Eniskillen bomb you are disrespecting the nurses you once represented.

@irish_news @brendanbelfast Difficulty is if Taylor Swift played in the new Casement Park then the GAA would take the profit.
If the public pay for the stadium then the public should get any profit from venue. The feeling is by those that are not GAA is that the GAA are being greedy and unfair.

@JamieBrysonCPNI I think recruitment is by the nurse elected representatives. Are you saying the nurses all support SF?

Republicans activists have been planted in versions professional positions. It was always clear Pat Cullen was such a person, but now she has come out into the open.

@JamieBrysonCPNI Irish economy - Uk economy - take both and we might be able to afford an MHS which can pay for itself and not be worse than the UK or the Republic health system. Just a thought

@deptinfra @JohnODowdSF Please make it an offence to block bike paths with cars. So often it is I'm possible to use bike lanes due to cars or vans completely blocking them. This is a considerable safety hazard.

@NewtonEmerson Once they integrate education and have one health board and close non economic hospitals otherwise it would only be throwing away more money

Half the households in Northern Ireland can easily afford to pay more towards public services but Stormont will barely acknowledge the possibility.
