Hye @amazon @AmazonHelp fancy telling me where my now late parcel is as none of your customer "service" team seem to be able to locate it or tell me when it might show up and now you've cancelled it

🚨 BREAKING NEWS!!! STATISTICAL PROOF THE MET OFFICE IS INFLATING UK MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE RECORDS, TO CREATE NET ZERO SUPPORTING CLIMATE ALARM!!! Conclusive’ statistical proof has emerged over the last year to show the UK Met Office is inflating maximum temperature readings to create Net Zero-supporting climate alarm. Over the last 30 years, the Met Office has produced the vast majority of its data from unnaturally heat-ravaged ‘junk’ sites using newly-installed accurate electronic devices able to record one minute heat spikes. The independent researcher Dr Eric Huxter has taken a year to examine the unnatural sudden rises that supply many daily ‘records’, and compared the overall spike averages with a pristine CIMO Class 1 control station. He concludes that it “could well explain the step change in rate of temperature change, and the marked increase in the step of new daily maximum records since 1990”. During his year-long project, Dr Huxter examined 340 daily maximum temperature highs recorded across 96 Met Office stations and discovered that these sites showed average short heat spikes around 1.1°C. Most of these spikes occurred around daily ‘records’ in junk CIMO Class 3, 4 and 5 locations. These sites have internationally recognised ‘uncertainties’ or possible errors of 1°C, 2°C and 5°C respectively. But spikes in temperature can occur naturally, so Huxter consulted a full year of individual minute temperature figures at a pristine Class 1 site in open farmland at Rothamsted. From the purchased records – a total of 525,541 – he was able to compile a baseline probability control. Here is the kicker – comparing the Rothamsted control with the 360 heat spikes at the largely junk sites, a chi-square test showed a highly significant difference of p <0.0001. This means that if there were truly no difference between the sites, the chances of observing such a large discrepancy in heat spikes would be less than one in 10,000 – in other words, more unlikely than one in 10,000 and quite possibly far smaller – for example, one in 100,000. Using such obviously flawed data, the Met Office’s Chief Scientist Professor Stephen Belcher calls for Net Zero to “stabilise the climate”, reporting that between 2014-2023 the number of days recording 28°C in the UK had more than doubled, while those over 30°C had tripled compared to 1961-1990. The BBC’s Chief Climate Headbanger Justin Rowlatt adds even more to the gaiety of the nation by reporting a Met Office claim that there has been a 40% increase in “pleasant days”, and these are defined as 20°C and above. “These changes may sound positive, but the UK’s shifting climate represents a dangerous upheaval for our ecosystems as well as our infrastructure”, he extrapolates.

📡 Hey @BT_UK — your fibre pricing is all over the place. 150Mb ranges £33.99 to £43.99 depending on which login I use, and 300Mb swings from £35.99 to £59.99. Faster speeds NA to me if logged in. It honestly feels like you’d rather I left than stayed loyal. What’s going on?

@tonyblackburn @BBCRadio2 @Ofcom Tony, it’s not allowed as it would break the competition. If this content is so good put it on the main network rather than set up yet another. The BBC has limited cash. Why spend it on this?

Reading RadioToday which is the industry online service for all things going on in the radio Industry every day a new radio station seems to come on but still @BBCRadio2 is not aloud to expand and have Radio2 Extra which I know would be fabulous. It seems so unfair that @Ofcom stops us from providing a service for the older generation with great music and much more fabulous archive material which only the BBC has. Such a shame. And so unfair not to allow competition.

I wish that @BBCNews would use their alerts for BREAKING NEWS and not to tell me that BTS are back together or who Laura Kuenssberg is interviewing this weekend. And before you tell me to turn it off - with Donald Trump in power I want breaking news alerts.

@TheIanHalstead @martin_youldon @AvantiWestCoast I produce a podcast. I don’t have to be a fan. And my post was due to a lack of facilities which are available to first class as a morning peak train and the inflexibility to move water to another area of the train

@Gareth___Jones @martin_youldon @AvantiWestCoast Right. So although your TL is awash with promotional posts and reposts for a Derby County podcast, you have no interest in the fortunes of the once-mighty Rams, your Burton location is mere happenstance, and the DC defeat wasn’t the catalyst for your irascible posts to AWC? 🤔

Hi @AvantiWestCoast when you’re coffee machine is dead in standard surely being able to provide hot drinks from first class should be an option rather than “nah”. Usual poor customer experience

@martin_youldon @Gareth___Jones @AvantiWestCoast Indeed so … He’s a Derby fan. They lost to Millwall last night. He’s had the hump for 12 long and hungover hours, but still feels the need to unload his anger at someone or something.🙄 Just hope his ticket was inspected *properly* … or he’ll be off again. 😡

@WestmorlandLady @Gareth___Jones Our staff in the shop can’t travel back and forth between coaches to do this, and carrying hot drinks through several busy carriages repeatedly isn’t safe. - Carmen 2/2

@UndervaluedFM Indeed UVB. Having some knowledge of the background to this, and of the way loyal staff were treated ... I found the praise heaped on RTD by BBC Chair Samir Shah, very difficult to take. "A passionate commitment to the power of public service broadcasting " ?!
