@Emmabarnett proud of you and @BBCr4today for taking a robust stance on antisemitism. Richard Tice and Reform would like to brush off corroborated testimony of @Nigel_Farage’s racist past. Voters deserve to know. @PeterEttedgui writes powerfully in the @Independent today.

@thebodycoach Hey Joe Wickes/team BC! Our App has stopped working. I’m still paying my subscription. I’ve also emailed but no reply. Our family loves the App and we want to continue with you. Pls respond to us!!!

[David Kester @DKDesignThinker]

@thebodycoach hey Joe/Body Coach team. We love your app and use it everyday. BUT it’s just logged us out and we can’t get back on and we can’t find a help line either. We are lost without our evening sessions. Pls help us.

@Barclaycard Took 1 hour. Barclaycard had mistakenly blocked my card. For some reason Barclaycard have been unable to remove its own block. Barclaycard have reissued me with a new card. This means I don’t have service for over a week. Miserable.

[David Kester @DKDesignThinker]

@Barclaycard so here I am hanging on now for +35 mins listening to endless mindless music. Doesn’t matter that the call is urgent. Doesn’t matter that the customer is inconvenienced. Second attempt too.

@weetabix @HeinzUK There’s innovation and then there’s desecration. We know which this is. #thisisnotinnovation #thisisnotdesignthinking

Over so many many years we have happy memories taking our friends, our kids, our dogs over the river. Francis and your whole family have spread constant warmth and friendship. Our thoughts are with you all.

[Hammertons Ferry @Hammertonsferry]

1/2: Today we said goodbye to the bravest, most courageous man we know. The most wonderful husband, father and grandad to us all and a friend and captain to you. He left his mark on everyone he met with his infectious smile and courtesy...

[David Kester @DKDesignThinker]

@Hammertonsferry disappointed that your info was unclear. We wasted a lot of time walking round only to find ferry closed. We are long-standing customers and fans of many years. Really must get the comms better.

@BenmoreBotGdn needs to re-think it’s Covid cafe. You could grow a whole sequioia while you wait. Offer less choice and simpler so you can speed it up.

[David Kester @DKDesignThinker]

How do we best innovate for social impact? Tonight I was thrilled to speak at a @PwC_UK to launch Design Thinking for Good. Hats off to founder Sarah Agbantou and @DaraKirton in the BXT team.

Talking about energising the SDG’s at today’s conference @dmuleicester with Professor Subhes Battacharryya

[David Kester @DKDesignThinker]

Thank you Prof Subhes Bhattacharyya of @IESD for inviting me to speak at today’s conference on accelerating the Sustainable Development Goals. Good sign that the department of development economics is next to the design department at #DMU. #DesignThinking
