URGENT! Pls share. The last chance to register to vote in the General Election is 11.59pm tomorrow Tue 18 June. Potentially 8m aren't registered at their current address. Here's 4 key facts...

1) You can do it online here https://t.co/i4FhJoAXfK
2) It's good for your finances. Not being on electoral roll can make it more difficult to be accepted for credit products like bank accounts or mortgages.
3) You can opt out of the 'Open Register' (which allows your info to be sold on) which will stop you getting junk mail marketing )
4) You'll need ID when you do vote (not to register) if you don't have it, you can get it free until Wed 26 June https://t.co/9bfL3hw3CV

As one of the 76 NLGs in this post, I have to say I am more than disappointed the DFE has summarily cut a successful program that would have saved much more by ensuring good governance & financial scrutiny than will be saved by ditching the system.

@LanceForman @john4brexit Talk to someone in the extraction industry - there is no extractable shale gas in the UK, the geology is incompatable with extraction, proven after much testing

Twitter removed a feature in the past few days that promoted suicide prevention hotlines and other safety resources to users looking up certain content. This timing is very dangerous given things like Christmas and NYE can often trigger depression.

The power of disinformation is mind-blowing & it’s dangerous.

Let me give you a very recent example that almost certainly cost lives…

Russia invaded #Ukraine last night. Many wonder: what can I do? How can I help?

Showing support for Ukraine is crucial right now. If you’re an entrepreneur, these are the tangible and real ways to help:

This is very probably the longest thread I've ever read on Twitter. And it has a lot of information in it you should read...

.@RachelReevesMP @UKLabour This is a fundamental misunderstanding. In EU member states you have to *register* in the country if you move there. The U.K. never even applied the the powers it had as an EU member!

[Mike Butcher (BlueSky/Threads: @mikebutcher) @mikebutcher]

As the UK Government launches its Migration Report on Thursday, tech charity @Techfugees is launching a campaign based on NEW opinion research that shows Brits are very open to refugees joining the workforce. So let's do this!
