@MartinSLewis When I was 10, a lady bought me a brand new piano. I never met her, but still remember her name and we still have the piano in the family.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

@Doug_Paulley @CrossCountryUK @espgrp I mean, it’s a good job you never need to ever go anywhere, isn’t it? . You know, being a wheelchair user meaning you stay indoors staring wistfully at the garden, waiting for someone to generously take you out.. /s

@Creatives_Now @BreakdownBolton Have you heard of @BlackSheepCIC ? They do great creative work in Milton Keynes around this..

At stake is the obligation that consultations the Government chooses to undertake are Fair.
The Government argues that such should only have the obligation to Not be Unreasonable.
That may be significant for other Government consultations and information gathering exercises.

[Doug Paulley @Doug_Paulley]

We have requested BSL interpreters well in advance, but the RCJ are struggling last minute to find any...
The Government is appealing the finding that the National Disability Strategy is illegal because the consultation was inadequate.
The Government has made it a bigger issue.

@MartinSLewis @bbc5live When I was ten years old, a lady I never met bought me a brand new piano. My dad was unemployed and went on the radio offering to do odd jobs and gardening in return for an old piano anyone had. A lady called up and offered to buy me a brand new piano. To this day we've never met

@fayroberts Thank you for this. I'm embarrassed that I didn't even think to question it, when I generally question everything else.

@supertanskiii Remember Alan Kurdi? People don't risk that kind of tragedy unless staying put is worse. Maybe this will help people understand. (Self promotion alert. But relevant) https://t.co/BGCT5e8alG
