@TheBritLad Don’t be like Colin. Before you fly the Union Flag, learn how to fly it properly. Colin is signaling he’s in distress. Perhaps he is. He is clearly confused. Poor Colin…

Local councils should match how we vote. They do in Scotland, N. Ireland and in Wales councils can choose a fairer system.

England is being left behind. Add your name to @electoralreform's call for everyone to have a vote that can make a difference. https://t.co/635OhKWzWr

Grumpy Git Alert. Just seen an ad on @ITV for the new MG HS. The VO artist described it as the “Emm Gee Haitch Ess”. Pardon? ‘H’ was pronounced ‘aitch’ when I learnt to read. Tell me @ASA_UK when was it deemed acceptable to it change to ‘haitch’?

.@bbctms pronunciation of the 'g' in Abinger Hammer is as in 'binge' not as Bing as in Crosby. And yes, the River Tillingbourne runs very close to the cricket ground: https://t.co/BLj7WDEL1V.
