@virginmedia the front has come off one of your cabinets. I'm not ringing this number, though, as I don't know the cost! City Road, Derby

It always surprises me that you rarely see news on just how many mistakes there are in a-level papers... It's like they're barely checked! @ofqual @BBCNews @BBCDerby Happens every year.... Imagine opening your paper and being greeted by an impossible question.....

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

@HEontap "anticipated drop in top A-level grades...."

This is pretty much guaranteed due to how the grade boundaries are decided after the exam's been taken. It's designed in......

what a joke

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

so, it's now July 2025 and still no tests AT ALL are available (unless I pay a 3rd part £300, of course!

[Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency @DVSAgovuk]

We know many learner drivers aren’t seeing the immediate effects of our measures.

Today’s announcement from the Transport Secretary could see thousands of extra tests potentially made available every month. 🤝

We committed to reducing waiting times. 📉

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

@DVSAgovuk We're not seeing ANY effects of your half-hearted measures:

@jailbird999999 @GordonFielden @bbcquestiontime There is this actual possibility, but judging from the opening speeches and start they've made in Derbyshire, I'd be quite surprised.......

@chug3345 @JolyonMaugham How many surgeries has he held in Clacton? What contribution is he making to the local area? His job as an MP seems to be just a title for him to earn off. However, it's what Clacton wanted, so here we are.....

Donald Trump shows the last few weeks haven't diminished his political influence as he helps the Liberals to a big win in the Canadian Elections

Interesting, what are your thoughts?

@iD_Mobile_UK yet again, I'm in a town with almost full 4g signal, but absolutely no connectivity. Is your network just broken? This is by far the worst network I've ever been with!

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

@TeamYouTube Also, as reported by others (over the last year!!!!!), it DOES still work if you embed the video. So, click SHARE on the video, then 'embed'. You can now use the preview of the embedded video to experience the spatial audio correctly! e.g. https://t.co/fX9rJAXr1q

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

@TeamYouTube Spatial Audio on YouTube (desktop Chrome) has been broken for what must be getting close to a year now. Will it ever be fixed, or has Ambisonic audio for 360 videos been abandoned?

[Bruce Wiggins @BruceWiggins]

@TeamYouTube it's on the desktop, multiple devices, using chrome. It's been playing up for a long time: https://t.co/keg2h2VBE7

[Jon Yates @jonpayates]

Ofsted has a new interim chair. He's a trained teacher, became a head, led schools in tough areas, his schools that are now THE BEST in the country for social mobility. Incidentally, he's a muslim. What bit do you think the Telegraph decided to focus on? Utterly disgraceful.
