@HeathrowAirport
Was on the 10:40am BA flight from Jersey. Checked baggage marked as priority. Landed at 11:35
20 minutes early priority baggage arrived 1 hour after we landed. How can BA justify expansion of the airport when they can’t even deliver priority baggage on time.
Those with extreme wealth should be the ones made to pay for fixing the mess the Tories left behind.
A Wealth Tax of 2% on assets over £10 million would raise £24 billion per year.
I've signed this letter, backed by dozens of MPs, calling for the Government to do this.
Holy shit, DWP is being given powers to take money outta people’s bank accounts in new crackdown on benefit fraud. Well why tf can’t they do anything about the likes of Mone and all those who delivered useless PPE through the Tory VIP Lane?
Benefit fraud £1.4b
Useless PPE £13b
Should all shops close on Boxing Day?
Poundland have just announced they're doing it - it'll give staff a break.
Are they on the right track or is it bad for business?
@guyrleech@MartinSLewis I think Fujitsu should also be held accountable for their part as software developers, and be forced to pay compensation to the victims
@MartinSLewis As an IT consultant/developer it astounds/annoys me that it seems more of the developers didn't step forward with evidence/proof of the malfunctioning software, especially after it was seen to be affecting lives, not just figures on a page/screen
@Evri__Parcel__
Send Parcel via EVRI, the delivery someone else parcel to my client. Tried call customer service automated service. Totally useless. Would like EVRI to sort out there incompetence
Dear @NCA_UK Congrats on arrest below BUT it's almost a year since you raided the homes & offices of Barrowman & Michelle Mone on Isle of Man & UK mainland in connection with PPE fraud on a massive scale.Can we ask if political interference is delaying arrests in this case? Carol
I have just sent the Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt - supported by major charities - a letter asking him to postpone the government's 20% increase in energy bills on 1 April.
The letter is at attached (plus supplementary explanation) please read and feel free to share
Today the Women and Equalities Select Committee is holding an evidence session looking at the impact of the cost of living crisis on disabled people & unpaid carers.
Suzanne, a carer & Carers UK member, will be giving evidence alongside our Director of Policy Emily Holzhausen.
Someone asked me yesterday how much carers allowance is, 69.70 a week I replied...oh is that on top of your wages?....no that is my wages! , they didn't believe me .
As suspected, this is a lowball number. Found some more granular local data, ran it through the @SpcialNdsJungle supercomputer, & the figure I get for Birmingham LA appeal defence costs, 2014-2021, is in the region of £16m, not £10m
Carol Vorderman rips into Rishi Sunak on #ThisMorning.
"Rishi Sunak co-founded a hedge fund... that invested £1b in Moderna shares... & he has refused to say whether he holds assets in the hedge fund & therefore Moderna... so are we talking about insider trading."
Wholesale Gas has crashed to a new low. Just 149p per therm compared to 702p in August.
Ofgem say they’ll cut bills in April. What use is that to people who deserve a cut in bills now?
Cut bills now.
If HMRC decided I'd paid £100 too little tax, I could be prosecuted.
How can a former Chancellor get away with £3.4 million of apparent tax fraud (perhaps he made innocent mistakes) yet he doesn't even have to explain himself to parliament?

Boris Becker went to prison for 2.5 years for tax evasion failing to declare £2.5m overseas assets. Nadhim Zahawi has been asked by HMRC to pay £3.7 million in tax after failing to declare capital gains on overseas assets. Er..surely he must resign and face charges?
