@AngryBritishMum@LBC He seems to miss the irony and solipsism when he claims the outrage is from those who feel the police should be racist - thus taking an utter tragedy and turning it into an intolerant attack on intolerance and abusing a moment for reflection for a moment of recrimination
@mrjamesob if I’ve got this right, you feel the outrage for the police & tragic death is motivated by latent racism? You are a clever guy. You see the duplicity and irony? The sprinkling of solipsism?
@danielmgmoylan Ok. So toads aside, what are they to do with? Please expand because seems to be a lot of truths, half truths, and untruths out there. Thanks.
@linmeitalks Perhaps. One of the reasons 50+ are working in ie Asda is not because they’ve retired but because the corporate world has rejected them for being too expensive/old. It’s a nuanced area. Folk ‘stop working’ older as cost of living up, live longer, & pensions too porous.
@SimonWalker166@KirstieMAllsopp Not sure how state would buy all the stock? Pretty sure landlords would bite their hand off - many make very little and lose. Taxed properly? LL already effectively taxed on turnover. Also property income is good enough to be taxed but not good enough as earnings. RRB unworkable
@KirstieMAllsopp@wesstreeting@BBCr4today Amazed by some responses. Landlords still up there as lepers. Such an easy target for politicians to bash so called lazy, rapacious, callous landlords. Not all are. Without their properties the rental market shrinks & prices go up for renters. Plus pretty much taxed on turnover.
@lfeatherstone Agree. I get the pros/cons but is it fair that someone who hasn’t been an MP for years can - simultaneously- become an MP, party leader, & PM in a matter of weeks? No TV debates, interviews etc. And as you say - different manifesto. Like ordering a chicken curry & getting salad.
@CarolineLucas@adamboultonTABB How is it fair that someone who hasn’t been an MP for years, can - in a matter of weeks - become an MP, leader of a party, & PM simultaneously without public involvement?
@NickFerrariLBC@BBCNews Wow!Andy Burnhams tweet? New depths of sophistry & sanctimony. Not sure our political system is “working” when an individual, w/out being an MP, can become an MP, leader of a party, & PM in a few weeks, simultaneously dumping the people they served
@AndyBurnhamGM Not sure our political system is “working” when an individual, without being an MP, can become an MP, leader of a party, & PM of our country in a matter of weeks, simultaneously dumping the people they served. What is right or principled about that?
@linmeitalks That’s one of the issues. 4 words all day. We need connection as well as flexibility. Spontaneous conversations. A space for unstructured interaction. Ideas wither in a vacuum.
@Argos_Online collected an order today. A kettle. Out of the box there’s marks and scratches on it. Can send photos. This does not seem brand new. 😡. How do I swap it for one that is actually new ?? @RussellHobbsUK
@cristo_radio@CharlotteCGill@AngelaRayner Always going to happen. I can’t even comprehend how policy makers can’t foresee this. It’s bash the landlord under the guise of helping tenants when it fact it helps them with one hand & shafts them with the other. The result? Both landlord & tenants feel the pain & situ worsens.
@sallyjackstvmum@AerLingus Same experience - so years don’t seem to have taught them anything. Customer service don’t understand the law, give different answers, and Lynne Embleton can’t even be bothered to acknowledge an email. Mind you neither can Luis Gallego the IAG CEO so maybe a cultural thing @rte
@itvMLshow@SimonCalder total wall of silence from Lynne Emberlton CEO @AerLingus & Luis Gallego at IAG following a std claim under UK261 for an in flight technical issue which resulted in return to origin airport. The customer service is a warren of contradictory rabbit holes.
@rdg_elliott@KirstieMAllsopp How is a “hard working families” defined? Genuine question. What’s hard working? And what isn’t hard working? Single people?
