I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.

i finally did it: someone was talking on the phone with loud speaker sitting close to me while we were inside the bus.
so I joined the conversation with full confidence. when she gave me that “are you mad?” look, I said, “sorry,I thought it was a group call since you put it on loudspeaker for all of us.”
she quietly told the person, “I’ll call you back,” and ended the call immediately. 🙂
I have an elderly friend who is in her 80s.
She lives in Cornwall.
Mary is very switched on but she struggles with new technology a bit - especially parking apps.
All she wants to do is put her car in a space for a couple of hours and pay.
She does not want to sign up for a new app.
She does not want to verify her device.
She does not want to save her credit card information.
She does not want to figure out why the app thinks she is in Devon and cannot geolocate the car park she is standing in.
She wants to take a few coins and put them in a machine and do her shopping/meet her friends. Now, she finds excuses not to meet friends or shop because she is so worried about the parking situation.
It is a disgrace that parking has become so discriminatory and this is just the start. When Digital ID is introduced, her whole world will feel like this.
@basilthegreat Terrifying 😢and we are inviting hundreds of thousands of people like this unvetted every day into the country to walk amongst us? I feel for parents today.
I just had a spray of this. I’ve been instantly transported back to 1999. I’m going out with £15 in my Velcro wallet which will somehow buy me 8 pints, 16 Rothmans from a machine in a pub, a kebab, and a taxi home. My shirt is massive and I have a whole pot of wet-look gel in my hair. My Nokia is ringing in my pocket, even though I haven’t charged it for three days.
