Hi @prestigebeds do you remove mattresses that have been dumped on our streets? Do you consider end of life / circular economy in your manufacturing? It shouldn't be totally up to councils / landowners to clear up @CleanStreetsApp @bktimes @MAsgharButt

@NesrineMalik @YousraElbagir do you know if there is a way to transfer money into Sudan from UK? Family needs money to get bus from Khartoum. @WesternUnion only allows to cash (but places not open). Bank transfer would be best, but can't see how to do it?

More heartbreaking headlines from Sudan. Lives of Millions affected. I met the generals. I have never felt such an overwhelming sense of evil as in one of those meetings. PLEASE Twitter friends do not let Sudan disappear from our news stories. bbc.com/news/world-afr…

@NesrineMalik @NesrineMalik I wonder if you can help; the humanitarian situation on the ground is getting worse, with many aid agencies warehouse looted etc. Do you know of any fundraising in the UK being coordinated? (I realise it is going to be difficult to get aid in).

@NesrineMalik Really interesting article @NesrineMalik in someways his history is similar to Muammar Gaddafi. If he is to get to full power in Sudan, this could just be the start.

@RoryStewartUK What do you see as the solution though @RoryStewartUK ? What can we do in the UK. It's obviously going to make even more displaced people, many of whom are likely to dangerous journey across the Mediterranean.

I’m up in Manchester for a couple of days this week- I’ve not got much time free, but where should I be going for drinks and dinner with a friend? City centre-ish!

@joecussens @RishiSunak @UKHospKate @morningad @PubsAdvisory @BIIandBIIAB Given the triple challenges of rising prices, climate change and now energy security due to Ukraine crisis- have you got a strategy to become more energy efficency? Renewables?

Joe Cussens@joecussens·1 Mar

Just had our electricity renewal prices through, projected to go up from the c£80k for this year to £252k - a 215% rise. What the hell are we going to do @RishiSunak ? @UKHospKate @morningad @PubsAdvisory @BIIandBIIAB

@Moneybox will you cover child car costs? Ours has gone up by around £100 a month. Makes energy bills seem small!

@Moneybox the couple in Wales with a well insulated home using oil, sound like they could be much better off with a heat pump and potentially solar PV.
