@AvantiWestCoast cancelling last train to Manchester at 9 pm with no notice, leaving stranded in London for night…
Shocking and no attempt to put replacement trains on, not even that late.
Bring back @VirginTrains.

We are just finalising our letter to the Prime Minister @theresa_may calling on her to create a dedicated Minister for Social Enterprise. The case is clear. All we need is the political will from No.10 - we think it is #timetomove - if you agree tweet in support.
Social enterprises are worth £60bn to UK GDP and employ 2m people. We are the future of business. We need our own Minister and voice in government. Please @theresa_may create a dedicated Social Enterprise Minister in your reshuffle #timetomove#SockItToBusinessAsNormal#SockOn
