@dee_exec Hi Kacey, are you looking for The Co-operative Bank UK? I don't recognise the screen shot you've sent. Thanks - Claire.

@CooperativeBank 30min wait to speak to somebody. From past experience, you get cut off regularly after waiting for ages. I was ironically trying to complain. I got cut off from the website after writing it and lost it. So wrote a short complaint survey and clicked send.

@bbclaurak It’s not like you’ve been the least credible journalist in a position of power and authority for the past decade anyway. For what it’s worth, I’m not buying the ‘mistake’ angle. Did someone on his team pose a leak risk?

While prepping to interview Boris Johnson tomorrow,  by mistake I sent our briefing notes to him in a message meant for my team. That obviously means it’s not right for the interview to go ahead. It’s very frustrating, and there’s no point pretending it’s anything other than embarrassing and disappointing, as there are plenty of important questions to be asked. But red faces aside, honesty is the best policy. See you on Sunday.

@JessOThomson You’ve achieved SO much for our community working ‘from your bedroom with barely any money’. Paraphrasing you slightly! I am so glad you are on my team and have this opportunity. You will use the power it provides with responsibility, compassion and care. ♥️

Oh…btw…until Elom respects trans and non-binary peoples’ autonomy to decide their nomenclature including pronouns, I won’t respect hers! So no. Not x. Twitter. Don’t comment to say I’m being petulant and childish. I’m not.

What does it look like when you put a whole bunch of @NEUnion trade union organisers, from Black, Disabled, LGBT+ and Women’s sectors together…in one space…in Manchester? Twitter, it looks like this.

This is disgustingly awful and horrendous. What is more shocking is, what would the situation be if a celebrity didn’t turn up to vouch for him?

The @guardian need to wobble their own head if they believe this! I still massively miss my subscription. I still respect many of the journalists and staff (particularly in the international versions). But…no. No. And thrice no. They have lost all credibility.
Declassified UK@declassifiedUK

The Guardian says its "quality, investigative journalism is a scrutinising force at a time when the rich and powerful are getting away with more and more”. So why has the Guardian hired Rishi Sunak's former spin doctor as its communications chief? declassifieduk.org/amber-de-botto…

27 years old Lewis Merritt got two years and eight months in prison. He was one of the rioters outside the Holiday Inn hotel Rotherham. He was caught hiding in the loft. "Get down now.. I can see your legs."

This is an important question. I will raise it with black and brown activists in @NEUnion and @TUCEquality
African, Caribbean and Asian Lawyers For Justice@BameFor

A 🧵Question: Why do the British labour and @TUCEquality movements almost exclusively fund @SWP or @hopenothate led anti racism? Answer : These are white led anti racist movements. There is no interest or support on the left for independent Black and Asian led anti racism.

“They were the worst of times,” Actually, let’s leave any upside down/reverse quotations right there. If you are trans…a woman…black…brown…there IS no follow up clause.
