@simonjedge I remember the event though not the involvement of the people mentioned. We were all rather scared at the time. The earlier bombs on the Tube caused quite a drop in pax numbers around Russell Square Tube

@InsideCroydon There is no such thing as a free lunch. Whether they are paid for by national or local tax, someone has to pay. I agree the poorer residents should be helped more, but I should be asked to contribute more by taxes

Would you @ING_news provide a tel number or email I can contact to close my account which I have not used for 3 years please, klantenservice is in Dutch only and I do not speak that language

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@MatthewsYard Saif. I suggest you post here a link to the JustGiving or VirginMoney link which is harvesting the cash from willing punters

@SimonCarswell @GoodLawProject Simon. I do contribute to the GLP cases. As former hon sec of RPSAG in early 000s, we did not think we could raise £3 million to challenge the renationalisation of rail network. But we took a chance and were amazed we did!

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@SimonCarswell I agree. I doubt whether there are enough of us to support this via crowdfunding but I would be ready to support an attempt

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

Andy. Happy to report that the replacement shirt arrived yesterday evening. Thanks for your intervention. Alan

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@paullewismoney Are not daily backups done? Would at least not the recent ones allow current system to be restored?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@SimonCalder And carrying any virus infection with them to the UK?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@paullewismoney Giving some students grades above their competitively- demonstrated ability will give neither them nor prospective employers any favours in the future

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@FinancialTimes Is this any surprise? We need replacement food every day, but do we need replacement clothing or homeware that often?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

On Friday I attended @HCAHospitalsUK Lister in SW1 and hairdresser in SE1 for booked appointments. Neither let me in until they had first taken my temperature. Why are we not doing that to returning travellers from abroad?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@SimonCalder But when we get another sudden spike here (Leicester, Blackburn, ....), should we be surprised if other countries' visitors here decide to quarantine their returning nationals?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@paullewismoney Powerful stuff. I can understand why she has been elected

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@MightyClee @JoCorneyDWP @JPMarksDWP Richard. Which hard-pressed employers will want a £1000 bribe if they have to pay no-longer needed employees for 6 months in order to get the bribe? Does not make financial sense in my view.

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

When will @nuffieldHealth ensure that membership records are harmonised with those @Nuffieldcroydon AND ensure that a single database is used for circulars to paying members?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@paullewismoney Why is anyone surprised? I am only surprised that it has taken so long to happen

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

@GustosoCroydon Are you planning to re-open after 4 July?

[Alan Reynolds @alanatcroydon]

Why is @yourcroydon unable still to restore proper recycling centres when supermarkets like @jsainsburys can offer public centres for the main segregated recyclable materials?
