@evanshalshawuk Two weeks on from this I still have no progress on the issue. Absolutely awful experience being totally stonewalled.

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@evanshalshawuk having an absolute nightmare with my car that I bought from your Wolverhampton branch that has closed down. No other branches will help. Filled out online complaints form which said response within 48 hours. It's been longer than that and I have a car I can't use.

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

Took for diagnostics at my own expense. Garage identified £4500+ work to fix multiple issues that have been present since purchase. DPF, SCR, turbo… the list goes on. Branches told me to contact head office but there is no phone number. What am I supposed to do?

Being gaslit by @ShopifySupport once again. When I raised that one of their features doesn't work as expected, they ask:

"Has it ever worked? If it has never worked, what makes you think it should?"

Careful folks, don't expect the feature to *work*!

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@Arbeit_Fish don't understand why this is a dunk?

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

Can someone link me to the interview of similar prominence with the person who actually won the seat?

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

"The party's got a problem."

Former Labour MP Thangam Debbonaire, who lost her Bristol seat to the Greens, exclusively tells @cathynewman that her party's "lack of a strong narrative" around Gaza during the election "had consequences".

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

Love this.

I have a policy wonk/parliamentary process question though… how have they managed to do this without a vote in the commons? Is there some executive power that cabinet ministers have that doesn't have to go via parliament?

[Ed Miliband @Ed_Miliband]

This government was elected with a mandate to take immediate action to boost Britain's energy independence.

The onshore wind ban is a symbol of how bad decisions in the last fourteen years have put up energy bills for families.

Today, it ends.

@jessphillips You're being disingenuous. Your party literally has a system of whipping. Independent (or Green) MPs do not have the threat of party expulsion hanging over them when they want to vote with their conscience.

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@Keir_Starmer How?

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

The replies to this 👀😂

You're not fooling anyone Debbs!

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@awjre @HMRCgovuk To be honest I can see why they'd do that. I had to send them a letter recently, and they have a digital service for checking if you should have a response yet. Last time I checked they had only processed post they received in Oct 2023 👀

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

This aged well (seriously)

[Michael Walker @michaeljswalker]

What are the chances that Labour's NEC blocks a bunch of left wing MPs from standing, in addition to Diane Abbott? It seems like an under-discussed possibility!

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@michaeljswalker @faizashaheen Heartbreaking. What a huge loss for the Labour party.

You can see how much it means to her – I hope she stands as an independent.

@Asheboy @FirstBSA 😂 sign me up for the netflix documentary

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

@FirstBSA is the number 6 running? Waiting at Fairfield park but no sign of it…

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

Now the 6A is late and has disappeared from tracking. Would be really helpful for you to publish service status somewhere!!

[Frankie Boyle Updates @frankieboyle]

I would love to understand the mindset of a British liberal commentator/ comedian/ politician. Brexit is a very bad thing that you’ve lambasted for several years, but you’re neutral on genocide?

[Ben Gourley @bengourley]

All this talk about SSR reminds me of when I was doing it *before* it was the done thing: https://t.co/cj4iz0158L

Do Next.js and co solve the auth problem so you don't have to think about it?
