#dpd are utterly useless. Ordered a brooder on 24 hour delivery to keep some chicks alive. They didn't deliver and now the chicks are dying. Beyond cross.
@AmericanAir Congratulations on showing your utter contempt for a passenger needing wheelchair assistance - contempt that continued after @guardian intervened. It takes talent to engineer that sort of #corporatefail. https://t.co/4YwRjK9nbK
@Annaisaac Worth noting that Arthur Balfour (he of the eponymous declaration) resigned at Conservative PM in Dec 1905 and lost his seat in the Liberal landslide of Jan 1906.
@Jolph as the @TheGreenParty candidate for Bexhill and Battle, will you support this @LCAG_2019 pledge if you are elected as the Member of Parliament ?
@DarrenJohnson66 To be fair the crystal meth and rent boys was vaguely exciting in a rather sad sort of way whereas being associated with a mismanaged arena just projects incompetence. Co-op ought to demand a refund
@AshplantRob Unfortunately engagement costs money and political parties that don't take millionaire donations have to make very little go a long way. These days you seem to get the democracy that someone is prepared to pay for.
@SamuraiPenny Hi Penny, there's an argument for hunting for food. I can see none for hunting for pleasure. As a Green I believe in social and environmental justice. Wildlife protection is a key part of that.
@EliseDB I'd be very interested to know how major news orgs are handling a very vociferous news management operation by the Israeli government and whether departing from an 'acceptable' line results in it becoming harder to cover the crisis.
@TMouganie just writing a piece about YPO's annual Global Impact Report. Affinity Africa has scored v highly for its efforts on gender balance. Could I grab a quote?
I just had to clip this and post it. She actually does say this. โIโve seen children hit by a bus and theyโve bounced up and asked if they could have a milkshake pleaseโ
