Digital marketing for @BelronGroup. Celebrant for weddings 💍🥂 and funerals 💐, Can’t honestly believe the sh!t show of Brexsh!t that was forced on us

@johnpalmer One of @johnpalmer or @mattshumer_ has missed the point. But I can’t tell which one. Genuinely.

@DanNeidle @DeclanJMKelly Can you show a case where uk govt has failed to place all of the bonds it wants to in the primary market? In reality it doesn’t even have to go through this process but does so through convention. The argument “the bond markets won’t let us” is both false and dangerous

@MartinSLewis Can’t we split the difference and permanently move half an hour earlier than Central Europe? I mean it would be inconvenient, costly, cause problems with travel and trade and make no rational sense, but then we have form for doing that sort of thing.

@anon_opin Anyone producing a phone that lasts more than 24hrs with typical usage would win everything. Even if it’s thicker

@minchoi It’s the power of brand. Ask most people (I.e people who don’t follow AI commentators on X) to name an AI chatbot and they will say ChatGPT.

@thameswater thanks for checking sewage spillage case number 01281426. Your investigation found there is no blockage in the pipe. Can you confirm this means raw human sewage will spill out of the manhole and over the recreation ground every time there is heavy rain?

@PAinsworthFAIR @MMT101DotORG Can’t both be true? Govt industrial, investment, tax policy etc massively influences the direction of the economy. Lab have made some good changes and some terrible ones. At the same time the net injection of money to make any growth possible has to come from the govt

@JamesMelville One could argue inheritance is imoral. Why should the descendants of an imperial pillager or a Norman king’s hanger-on start life with a vast fortune? But also who wouldn’t want to pass on a favourite piece of jewellery to their children. Somewhere in between is the line.

@AarifSaiyed @aidThompsin Right because the new owner is going to be a plumber who’s also pretty handy with a plastering trowel and likes to weed his own lawns.

@RealAlfTupper @Feargal_Sharkey @krishgm Someone has to pay for investment or we will have leaking pipes, insufficient reserves and pollution for ever. As a country it doesn’t really matter if that is from consumers or directly via government. But every other country considers it a necessary burden

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

@NewnhamTony @MMT101DotORG Of course. If the deficit goes into tax cuts for already wealthy people it is unlikely to stimulate additional economic growth. But if it goes into e.g. education or the justice system then it will likely create better conditions for the economy in the longer run

@UtilitaEnergy I forgot to mention, the live chat is not really live and the chatbot mostly directs you to a phone number.

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

Has anyone ever managed to get through to @UtilitaEnergy by phone? They are by far the worst energy supplier I have attempted to deal with. No reply to emails, can’t get through by phone, but somehow blocked a request to transfer the account instantly

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

@MartinSLewis @Dincwear_Dance Or everyone can have an extra day off and the company still makes as much money.

@MonkEmma Any article that uses “amid claims that..” is going to be several degrees of misdirection away from reality.

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

@BGT Sure he was charming and an emotional story, but just not very funny. And did he mention that he was broke?

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

@CharlotteCGill So “full time content creator” creates lots of content, which is retweeted by people of a similar political leaning. In other news, people interested in politics apply to ask questions on a show about political questions. And some of them wear bright colours. OMG indeed.

@anon_opin This is not an opinion, it’s just an incorrect statement

[Chris Ellis 🇪🇺🇬🇧🦎 @ctebiz]

@anothercohen Nor any testers. Nissan Qashqai is great when it works but then randomly loses its radio presets, activates voice mode for no reason and just loses all sound completely after receiving a call. So many gremlins.

@BotFinderUK @jillmcmullon I think you need to up your parody game. The OP was good, but then you fell into the trap of explaining it. See @RAF_Luton for hard-core skills, all photographed from a Canberra.
