@BelfastLive There is no fuel shortage anticipated - media winding people up! Our oil comes from the US and Norway mainly and not from shipments passing through the strait of Hormuz

@LeeAldis @bbcnewsline /2 and those unconnected cases are purely coincidental and only being reported because of the unusual no of cases being reported in Kent. It’s not highly transmissible and nothing to do with Covid.

@bbcnewsline Why didn’t the people who are queueing now get the vaccine in their teens ? Either you believe it now and didn’t before ???? If you don’t believe it then don’t queue

A 16-year-old pupil at a Belfast school is being treated in hospital for probable meningitis. A second person has also been assessed. The pupil attends Bloomfield Collegiate in Belfast. Health authorities have reassured parents that the case is not linked to the outbreak in Kent.
English
@LeeAldis @bbcnewsline The vaccine was only made available roughly 11 years ago so only children up to that age will have received it. It’s only available privately above that age at the minute. There are cases every year it’s just that in this instance they’ve traced the possible source and /1

@MartinSLewis 500 litre here in Belfast was £295 before . We phoned early on the Monday after the weekend the war started and were lucky to get it for £360. By next day had risen to over £500 and today it’s £620 which is actually a drop from the high of £650 last week
English
@allianceparty @dhoneyford More than 40% - within 3 days from £300 to around £570 that’s nearer 80%

When the price of home heating oil shoots up, there should be transparency around who stands to benefit and how.
It must be brought within the remit of the Energy Regulator.
We cannot control global conflict, but we can help protect NI households from the fallout.

@allianceparty @dhoneyford 500 litres up to nearly £600 now with some suppliers. I paid £360 Monday at 8.30 am for 500 litres and at 9.30 price was £399 and rose to £585 from same supplier though today it dropped to £565. Go petrol price went up to £1.28 litre and then again later today to £1.38.

@MartinSLewis /2 goodness knows what it’ll go up to as it has now doubled and there are no controls as with gas and electricity.

@MartinSLewis Here in N Ireland there is still a large dependency on home heating oil. I needed to order oil as my tank was low. Friday it was £305 for 500L by Monday it was £360 by Monday afternoon it was 440 average and today it’s £565 average. Thank goodness I got the lower price £360/1

The spike in the gas price (a prime driver of UK electricity prices) due to the Iran conflict is substantial in the context of the last six months, but as the second image shows it isn't a Ukraine war type spike.
In the short term its primary consumer energy bill impact will be to push up the price of new fixed rate energy tariffs. How much it impacts the (July onward) Price Cap is a function of how long it spikes for. If it's short it will be minimal, if it's longer then its likely to drive prices up from July.
The other immediate domestic energy concern is the cost of domestic heating oil which has risen sharply.

@JamesMcIntal @X_Facelesssone How is Sunday the first day of the week - weekend is Saturday and Sunday and if you believe in god and the bible it says god rested on the seventh day. Of course it depends which culture you are from and which part of the world you are in

@katellie @the_traitors_ Wouldn’t work because the show is filmed a while ago so no live audience participation is possible

@the_traitors_ No. It's too obvious and been done before. Reason you're so good is because you are original. Come on, you can do better than that. I'd have one round where the public either murders or banishes.

Do you think adding a "Split or Steal" option, Golden Balls style, should be introduced to The Traitors finale if there are two Traitors at the end?

@CrazyVibes_1 I would has said option 2 then read about shoes option 1 and yes agree go for it. Option 2 looks boring whereas option one fits with the dress when you know the story behind these shoes. Enjoy the wedding and wearing your beautiful unique shoes
English
I’m going to a wedding next weekend and can’t decide on shoes!
The dress is vintage and has this gorgeous floral pattern, so I wanted shoes that either complemented it or kept things simple. I found option 1 (the floral block heels) from an amazing maker on a shop who does hand-painted shoes — she actually matched the colors to my dress from a photo I sent her.
Option 2 is just simple nude strappy heels that I already own.
Honestly, I can’t decide if I should go bold with the matching florals or keep it classic!

@sub2pewdsONyt @SorchaEastwood Ir costs less than 50p to add this test to a test already done and would save many children from a debilitating and progressive condition. In turn would save the nhs millions. You’d feel differently if it was your child

@SorchaEastwood How much more are tax payers expected to provide for others while getting nothing back but higher taxes and real services cut?

Many of you might have seen the news over the last few days about Jesy Nelson and her gorgeous twin girls, Ocean & Story Monroe, being diagnosed with SMA, Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
I then saw the story on BBC Newsline NI of Ann Reel and her beautiful daughter, sharing their journey of her daughter's diagnosis of SMA, but more importantly, her call for earlier diagnosis through newborn bloodspot analysis.
I haven't stopped thinking about them all since.
So I've tabled this Early Day Motion calling for SMA to be included in the standard heel prick test.
Scotland are already implementing a pilot on this- Northern Ireland, England and Wales aren't, but we should be.
I'm hopeful that we can get some positive movement on this 🙏🙏🙏
