@JarlathFlynn @SW20Ed @Edinburgh_CC @DrScottArthurMP @SpokesLothian I strongly agree with this, it is actively dangerous at rush hour (especially southbound). There is another very bad section close to the junction with Colinton Road

Hi @Edinburgh_CC the poor road surface situation on Myreside road is forcing cyclists swerve to avoid the bumps. Its a downhill section which makes it worse for an unsuspecting cyclist. Who can get this done in your absence @DrScottArthurMP @SpokesLothian

@LordWoolamaloo There was an interesting piece on that in the Grauniad this weekend theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

People watching videos or playing games on phones without headphones, in a confined space like a bus, train or cafe, require a slap around the chops with a medium to large-sized haddock.

@johnomason Ooo I have heard and been recommended Roti King. This does look very good. I should try this next time I am down in London.

@johnomason Yum, down in London soon and I'm now considering a visit to Roti King.

@stephengdavey @professor_dave Frighteningly (but perhaps unsurprisingly) not obvious to USS fund managers twitter.com/JosephineCumbo…

#USS, the biggest private sector pension scheme in the UK, has a 20% stake in Thames Water. The fund increased its stake to 20% in 2021. "We think Thames Water will link our returns to inflation over time," said USS in its November AGM.

@professor_dave It's pretty easy really. From a standing start, you just take out £53B in loans and pay out £72B in dividends. I'm sure even someone failing GCSE maths can see that won't work.

How can you go bust when you run a monopoly business where you have a fixed and defined customer base who are literally forced to pay your bills? You have to be completely incompetent surely?
