.@easyJet any chance at all of you replying?

@Gilb0803 *you're ❤️

#SkyDebate wondering why Rigby had interrupted Starmer 100 times at this point but she's let Sunak waffle on about how *upset* he was at knowingly walking out on the D-Day events? 🤔

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

@Lorse72 ❤️❤️❤️ thanks so much for taking the time to comment Mark have a lovely evening x

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

Sunak says what makes him likeable is: 'I eat an enormous amount of sugar'... a Freddo is about a fiver these days, mate, nice for some... imagine having the money to scoff 'bags and bags of Haribo' whilst most people are worried about affording food full stop 😂#SkyDebate

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

Sunak confuses me. Is he genuinely so blind to his own privilege/deluded that he GENUINELY believes he has any iota of *understanding* what it's like to be a *normal working* person? ... like, why is he saying this... unless he's unhinged? #SkyDebate

But @OxfordshireCC has nearly £1m budget gap so I can only assume that the extra council tax we HAVE to pay for 24/25 won't be spent on fixing the appalling roads or pavements or funding services we need. Will just go into the big black hole like the one under this drain.

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

Reported a hole in the ground opening up next to this drain cover thanks to land movement. On a residential road near a primary school. I can only imagine it getting worse with the rain...

Solution? Stick this over it.

I don’t want tax cuts. I want the ambulance to arrive. I want good schools, public transport and town centres. I want investment in jobs, education and people. An extra tenner a week is no good to me when society is falling to bits.

I'm struggling to think of a more grotesque spectacle than our super-rich Prime Minister – whose fortune is estimated to be £529,000,000 – making a £1,000 bet that he will deport people seeking asylum before the next election.

He's gambling over people's lives. It's sickening.

@JamesMelville They've closed the lines completely now. Hangs up on you. They randomly added £2.5k to my bill on January 24th having signed off my self-assessment in Dec. Accountant says its likely computer error (scary AF) & I've paid what I actually owe, but the anxiety it causes isn't funny.

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

@HMRCcustomers @Jenzy4685 I tried calling just after 8 and and it was already saying 'sorry we have extremely high call volumes and can't take your call' OR 'we have technical issues and can't take your call.' And has done since then.

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

@HMRCcustomers when can we speak to someone on the phone? You've randomly added an extra £2.5k to my tax bill between December 15 when you confirmed receipt of my assessment, and now. My accountant says this is 'alarming' & likely a mistake but I can't get through on the phone 🙃

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

@TideBusiness is the app down? Repeatedly says login failed. I've emailed with no response and there's no number to call, ironically can only seem to get help inside the app. I am trying to run a business, this is very stressful.

WHAT is happening to journalism/PR?

Someone sent a press release and I asked for additional it was potentially worth using.

They've asked me to *agree to these brand deliverables*...

For EDITORIAL.

If you aren't paying, and I'm doing you a solid, this isn't how it works.

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

@StephanieYeboah I've noticed PRs trying to use these moves on journalists and editors too.

Had a restaurant invite.

They wanted a 3 page feature (worth thousands) in a luxury mag I edit.

ALSO wanted me to *check in* on insta, a story and a post. On MY personal account.

#nope

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

This ☝️ might be a good agreement for an *influencer* ...

But not for a journalist.

[Samantha Harman @Style_EditorUK]

Just had a PR request to feature a restaurant in a magazine *in exchange* for a meal.

Two things:

👉 editorial is never guaranteed.

👉 the invite says I *also* have to guarantee I'll post on my socials, tag the pub, #ad and 'check in' there.
