This tweet from @sarah_hilary has just made my week!!!

A blistering follow-up to The Redeemer. Shanna Regan is on top form, tackling the murderous consequences of racism and social unrest. There are too few Jewish protagonists in crime fiction, so do get your hands on this if you love a deep, dangerous dive into a world rarely seen

Our members do not want to be on strike. This was a really hard decision for our members to take. They want to be in the classroom, doing what they do best – teaching and supporting our children and young people. But it’s a last resort. We have to #SaveOurSchools. #PayUp!

🚨 The results are in! 🚨
In our ballot, @NEUnion members have voted in overwhelming numbers to take historic strike action for a fully funded, above-inflation pay rise.
We have to save our schools.

And this is why nurses are striking. It’s not just about pay. Same for educators, paramedics, firefighters, railway workers etc.

@AvantiWestCoast I’ve already done this once and the responses from complaints have just got worse not better.

I was on the train involved in the emergency at Euston on the 7th. I had to disembark by a ladder and walk down the track. @AvantiWestCoast No compensation. Response. ‘Although this was not a nice experience … we did get you to your destination.’ Acceptable?
English

@tracey44513010 @AvantiWestCoast I had the same. I’ve appealed it and put in a complaint. I’ve also sent a photo of us walking down the track.

@AvantiWestCoast After been stuck for over 3 hours on train and evacuated by emergency services yesterday @AvantiWestCoast replied to my delay repay to say train was 5 mins late. @AvantiWestCoast get your systems fixed. delay was upsetting enough without trying to get out of compensating people

@AvantiWestCoast Thank you to the member of staff that just brought us some.
English

@AvantiWestCoast I understand that there is an emergency evacuation going on but water would be nice. Still stuck on coach B.
