It seems odd @guardian that this article talks about "maintaining investor confidence". Surely buying, asset stripping and borrowing should lead to bankruptcy and complete lots of "investment"? Why is there talk of bailing, (no pun intended) out?

Come on @guardian surely you are not suggesting Putin is not wholly to be trusted! That's rude.

Umbrellas at dawn

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

See. It hurts only a minority. Surely you could have a different way?

@BBCNews @bankofengland all the outlets report the raising of interest rates to depress incomes for the 30-40% of households with mortgages and reduce their spending and thus inflation. None explain why this couldn't be done with tax to hit all and without the lag of fixed deals.

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

I think it would help to explain why interest rates are the only tool seemingly ever used. I'm a bit in the dark.

@JIWarren The hyphen gives the impression of a locked bird. RSPCA job that.

@sapphicapuella I like your little (I guess) conspirator.

@edfenergy will pay 5.9px3.2kwh=19p/h for this solar energy. If we ran 3.2kw of stuff at home we would pay 31.86px3.2kwh=102p/hour (plus standing charge) - that's over 500% mark up when they sell it on to you or back to us.

@keithfrankish It seems to me that PZ are conceivable IF consciousness is not physical, but the argument runs consciousness is not physical if PZ are conceivable. It seems question begging.

@sapphicapuella We get it 2 in 3 nights in Whickham. Try harder.

@AmazonHelp I just bought it from YouTube video for the same price without the faff. Thanks for your help though.

Why has @primevideouk become so dysfunctional? Find a video in Prime App, no option to buy/rent; go to Amazon app, no option... Is this really all so rich Jeff doesn't have to share anything with Google? I might look at YouTube video.

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

@Ofstednews simply do not seem to understand or care. What's the point of trying to raise well-being when Ofsted exist only as a stick to beat people with. https://t.co/1f0fp1oopg

@CCLcomputers are you behind on builds? My 29.12.22 build was supposed to be delivered on 16.01.23 and is still marked as "awaiting build".

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

@gonortheast Please could you investigate why the 7:42am 97 hasn’t stopped at Oakfield Rd-Marston Walk twice this week despite passengers clearly waiting and signalling to the driver to stop? The registration of the bus in question this morning is NK69 FAU.

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

@virginmedia Does that mean it's not possible?

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

hi @virginmedia, is there a way to add @DisneyPlus to my TIVO box? I can't find it in the list of apps, but surely if I can have Prime I can have Disney?

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

@TheOldPostie @RoyalMail @AmazonUK I guess that's why people prefer Amazon couriers?

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

First after asking @RoyalMail to redeliver and specifying they should deliver to the shed in the garden I get an email saying "nobody was in" & a "collect from Manchester card" (we're in Gateshead) and the next slot is 13th! @AmazonUK I wish you wouldn't post my things with them!

[James Miller @IamEudaimon]

@MetalClassicist @alexdoylewriter Is this a pun or similar I've not noticed in the text?
