Probably too late for this timetable, but can we make sure the best train to London is back in Spring, @AndyBurnhamGM? 🙏🏼 Why is ORR prioritising private over GBR?

@elonmusk It’s freedom of speech, not freedom of consequence. The UK online safety law is flawed & needs urgent reform, but it is absolutely required. Hate & incitement to violence would not be tolerated in a crowded city square. As @elonmusk says, this is the world’s digital town square.

Today, UCU’s Estelle Hart paid tribute to our member Will Nelson, who tragically lost his life last week in Lisbon.

“Will fought to protect arts education and access to it, and we will continue to fight for that in his memory”.

Our thoughts remain with his family and friends.

@NickyThomas @UKLabour We just had a General Election where Labour said they would do exactly this if they won. People voted for them and they won.

It is right there in the manifesto. https://t.co/VXsG4nZsuR

The UK entry I think is the strongest EuroVision friendly entry, but, ya know, we still haven’t exactly done much to win friends.

If #Iceland had entered #JaJaDingDong, they’d win #Eurovision2025 guaranteed.

Could this be the biggest climate story of the year?

For the first time on record, China's emissions are falling due to clean energy growth, not slow power demand

@WatkinsonLizzy @R0zolins @Phili_Thomp @TheWarEnglish The US wash them because of the unsanitary conditions in their battery farms. But once you wash them, they lose their natural protective coating, so you have to refrigerate them. Same reason they chlorine wash chicken, the poultry is riddled with salmonella and other nasty bugs.

Mark Carney, "The lessons of Brexit are beginning to be applied to the United States"

"When you break off or substantially rupture trade relationships with your major trading partners, Canada included - the most important trading partner of the United States"

"You end up with slower growth, higher inflation, higher interest rates, volatility, weaker currency, a weaker economy"

"We're seeing the early stages of that in the United States"

@Phili_Thomp @TheWarEnglish You can sell us whatever you like, so long as it complies with our laws. You guys ban absinthe, Kinder Surprise, selling alcohol to under 21s, raw milk, fireworks, unwashed eggs, I could go on and on, but we don’t moan about it. They are your laws.

@ShekRahman3 @AndyBurnhamGM @MetroMayorSteve John Prescott proposed just that in the late 90s during the last Labour government. Let’s hope Mayors Andy, Steve, Tracy and Oliver now make the chance for it to happen.

@maxbscott The number of tickets was limited due to the kick off time and lack of transport capacity back to Manchester in the evening, we were unable to buy for this reason.

@matt_vanswol UK you’re looking at around £400 if you take a private scan, or £0 on the tax payer funded NHS. If the US diverted half of what you pay for healthcare to a public funded system, you’d have the best system in the world by far and you could bank the rest.

Funny how someone can fall down a rabbit hole in under a year on this platform and drag a whole brand with it. #ManchesterPride2024 #Tesla

@redrose_anna Better question would be “how can the US not afford to give their employees so much paid time off when the rest of the world can”? Something wrong with the way you’re running things.

@BeeNetwork temporary lights by Chorlton High South crossroads have failed with dual carriageway lights stuck on red - very long tailbacks
