@IKEAUK I received the following (didn't order) in addition to what I actually ordered - is anyone missing their delivery?

When disinvestment leads to crumbling structures & healthcare

Cost of eradicating NHS repairs backlog is now £10.2bn - 1.8bn of the backlog of repairs are considered high risk https://t.co/f1UtW41BK6

Wow. This is absolutely superb from @Ed_Miliband

The courier company @evri_parcel, offers a 24 HR delivery service which for me is over 105 hours not yet delivered... I used them to get medications to my brother... What is their business model? #desparadosmailwithus #wemayormaynotdeliveryourparcel

[Carter @CarterNewman]

7 weeks and still no internet. Amazed that @BTGroup is still operational on this timeline. Other provider recommendations?

I've found the Bermuda triangle of the postal world. Two packages: 1on hold for more than 2 months, 1 on hold for over 3 wks. What's going on?!! Despite being in the UK Parcel Force won't take responsibility for them? @Parcelforcehelp @parcelforce @posindonesia279

Nuanced arguments on language standards. I'm proud of studying @UniOfHull I work on an international research project where a certain standard of spelling and grammar is required. It is a disservice not to hold up language standards as workplaces are not so nuanced.

This is unacceptable behaviour of law enforcement personnel. No laws being enforced, just discrimination & abuse of power https://t.co/hv2RnN1avt

Army Lt. Nazario was driving his new car home. He was pulled over, pepper sprayed, and arrested without explanation.

This is racism. It’s about the domination and humiliation of a Black man because he asked questions and “didn’t comply.”

This doesn't sound good: the police, crime, sentencing & courts bill will give #PritiPatel powers to create laws to define “serious disruption” to communities and organisations, which police can then rely on to impose conditions on protests. https://t.co/RPepdBTA8o

How is a high-speed rail project positioned to 'rewild'? #HS2 Corporate responsibility fob-off?... Plant grass should balance the massive destruction of the countryside! Using a trendy word doesn't make it ok. #rewilding https://t.co/bOnQ8cKxZ5

Facing #climatecrisis & trying to live healthier, I'm in favour of cycle lanes in #kensingtonandchelsea @FelicityBuchan - why not do a proper survey rather than reference spurious detractors? https://t.co/9obpNccUMS #londoncyclecampaign

[Carter @CarterNewman]

When the military budget is increased by 0.5% GNI in real terms (16.5 bill) but international aid is cut by 0.2% (so the UK no longer meets its commitments), @Conservatives it's not the recession, it's cabinet priorities - at least own your poor decision-making @RishiSunak

[Carter @CarterNewman]

Sweeping serious issues of misconduct under the rug further detracts confidence in an already comprised government. Ignorance is not an excuse for ministers @pritipatel @BorisJohnson @Conservatives #ukneedsbetter #workplacebullying

Employment lawyers, it’s been a while since I was in this game, but “I’m too stupid to realise that I’m a bully” is a watertight strategy, right?
