Scotland's Hate Crime Act comes into effect today. Women gain no additional protections, of course, but well-known trans activist Beth Douglas, darling of prominent Scottish politicians, falls within a protected category. Phew! 1/11
I've lost count of the USB-C cables I've thrown away and my (blind) wife regularly has to send away her Victor Reader because she has destroyed the USB-C connector. So I mourn the passing of the Lightning, though I do accept standardisation is a good thing
I've followed your campaign against the Lightning connector, but I disagree with you about its fitness for purpose. The Lightning connector has one great virtue - it's tough, in fact I've never known one fail. Who cares if it's slow? Most of us mainly use it for charging. ≈
@thameswater you lose nearly a quarter of your water through leaks. Water has been streaming down the road past my house at GU4 8AF for months. The leak has been reported multiple times. See discussion at https://t.co/M06JvS0ezA
@thameswater are there any plans to fix the leak in Shepherd’s Way, off East Shalford Lane, GU4? Water has been running down East Shalford Lane for months. The lane is currently closed by Thames Water, but there is no sign of any work being carried out at present.
#NadineDorries is of the opinion that there aren’t enough regional accents on the #BBC. Does she actually listen to the BBC? Received pronunciation is in retreat.
@itvhub @cobbler2012 Come ON @itvhub !! It really is time we could get audio description on the tv app! I’d settle for being able to cast it from iPhone/iPad app, but no, you can’t do that either! BBC have offered AD on iPlayer for ages. Now get on with it!

Last night at 12:50am, our defib was vandalised. It was caught on CCTV so if anyone has any information about who these two people are then please report it Sussex Police. The CAD Number is 551-13.06.2021.
@FredOlsenCruise have told me that my cruise this autumn is cancelled. I asked for a refund and was told this can take up to 8 weeks. I have visions of a clerk on a high stool writing out cheques with a quill pen, working only Tuesdays. How can a payment possibly take that long?
@amolrajan I’ve become rather a fan. Your handling of the lady from Foxglove on #bbcr4today was excellent, setting out the advantages to society of the data scraping of pooled anonymised GP records in a few short sentences. At last, a scientifically literate presenter!
Why can't #PritiPatel say anything without threatening someone? On #Andrewmarr it was the BBC, but it's usually immigrants, her colleagues or someone else who can't defend themselves. Time she went.
#edwinpoots, the successor to Arlene Foster as leader of the DUP, is not only anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage, he is an actual creationist. He doesn’t believe in evolution, for God’s sake. Where are we, 1850?
