No it isn't, the bangers should be covered. . . .

@JayW132 @RichKenworthy The general practice of many products over the last quarter of a century.

A Mars Bar cost 28p in 2000. Today it's £1.05, and it's 18% smaller. Price up 275%. Size down 18%. Most people accept this as normal. It shouldn’t be.

After 13 years of Capita in Barnet, Cabinet Committee meets on 24 February to decide the future of Revenues & Benefits. This is the moment to bring it back in-house. #BarnetCouncil #EndOfAnEra @wylie_alan @ShowsPromise @BarnetForum @Barneteye @_MrMustard @HaringeyBarnetU @BrokenBarnet @ReasonableNB

I live in Mitcham an area in Merton. Town centre streets jet washed Hundreds of new trees planted Introduction of parking bays for hire E-bikes Graffiti removed Implementing rain gardens Flowers planted to brighten up the area No Council tax increase Thank you Labour Party😍

I’ve been trying to get my 85-year-old mum signed on her GP’s app on her old phone for the last two hours with no luck. Keeps demanding two factor authentication apps which my mum won’t understand or to create a digital ID or passcode. This is digital exclusion.

@Cpass12David My husband knew Starmer. He said he was the best CPS director ever. Hard working and innovative. À third of his work was pro bono helping tortured prisoners via Amnesty International.

@dr72w_david @josephinewell19 disappointed like you in @PippaCrerar someone I used to respect.

Pippa, how you have fallen. From the crusading intelligent journalist who helped expose The Liar Johnson's partygate lawbreaking, to one of the braying pack against a decent, hard working, caring PM, Keir Starmer. It's a real shame #MediaBiasAgainstLabour

@JohnSimpsonNews @The_ChrisShaw The whole situation is tragic. War is tragic. Using cluster bombs is a war crime. It’s all unbearable. What hope for the future?

The Geneva Convention says it’s a war crime to target journalists, even if they work for an enemy organisation. It’s also a war crime to target medical workers. After the killing of 3 Lebanese TV journos last week, several medics coming to help them were killed as well.

In 2013, a 3-year-old boy fell down a 49ft well in Romania. Firefighters spent 11 hours trying to get him out but couldn’t. They said it was too narrow and he couldn’t be rescued. Then a 14-year-old seventh grader, who had just gotten home from school, volunteered to go down. They tied ropes around his waist, lowered him into the well, and he came back up with the little boy.

Ed Miliband gets relentless bile from the right for his ‘ideological’ commitment to clean, cheap renewable energy - just as Nye Bevan once did for creating the NHS. Yet on March 25 97.7 % of our electricity was from renewables. A revolution is unfolding. observer.co.uk/news/columnist…

@prodnose @Veritas_Veritas The “Me me me” mentality.

Everything rotten in Britain stems from this period. Everything. Landlord rents. Shit in the rivers. Zero work hours. No British industry. Gas, electric bills through the roof, No affordable housing. All of it.

@digitalsunshine @becadjue Off for Easter. Might actually be worth watching then.

If you're the mother who was reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone aloud to your child on the LNER train from London to Edinburgh yesterday, one of my grown up children was listening and says you did the voices brilliantly❤️🥹

@EveleenWinters @heather63262308 That must be a great relief. 15 hours isn’t acceptable both medically and for the stress it causes all involved. 👍🏻

@LaBloggeuse @heather63262308 We waited 15 hours in the end. Shes home nkw & back to her normal. Shes on blood thinners & the catheter must have been knocked at some point & caused a bleed in her bladder x

My mother is still waiting for an ambulance. Its been almost 13 hours. Wales. She is bleeding profusely from her urethra & losing clots. A medical emergency. I've been advised to place more pads over the bleeding. She is soaked through with urine and blood. Where's her dignity?

Petrol and diesel up every day for three weeks - diesel £1.78/litre, petrol tops £1.50. Crude oil up this morning. Good news for Chancellor's VAT take but why do pump prices rise so quickly? and when might they come down? with Edmund King @AAPresident on @Moneybox noon @BBCRadio4

The guy who owns our local chippy told me yesterday there’s no cod on the menu because wholesale prices are so high customers wouldn’t pay what he’d have to charge. What a country we now live in — a pint at the pub and even fish and chips are too expensive.

From 6pm today, the hands will show the wrong time, and the bells will be silent. 🔇 By 2am on Sunday, the chimes should return, marking the start of British Summer Time.

When my grandmother was 99 she had a pacemaker fitted. They flew her to Wellington for the operation. Before they went the guy asked her if she wanted to be resuscitated. She said yes. The guy then asked her again, explaining that it can cause quite painful injuries. She was a completely capable woman of full mental capacity and said yes she understood and please resuscitate her if she needed it. He then asked her a third time, telling her that her quality of life might be different. At that point, my grandmother turned to my father and asked “What does he want me to say?” and Dad then intervened telling the now very defensive guy to knock it off. That kind of low level pressure happens in the health system every day.
