Five hours after we arrive we finally get the access pass, and the big rides are full... Better late than never but still a terrible disabled access experience @LEGOLANDWindsor

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Now being ghosted by the disability access team at @LEGOLANDWindsor not the best birthday experience

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Having a bit of a disability access nightmare at @LEGOLANDWindsor staff on site directing us to insane email support services. Likely to be home before we make progress.

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@LEGOLANDWindsor @jamesmurray_ldn Feeling like we are at Disneyland reimagined by Ryanair

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Feeling pretty outranged with a disabled child at @LEGOLANDWindsor being told that having a prosthetic leg is not enough to get assistance we need to pay extra or apply 7 days in advance @jamesmurray_ldn #lego

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@LEGOLANDWindsor @jamesmurray_ldn Now no wheelchair or shooters available in the park

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@LEGOLANDWindsor @jamesmurray_ldn Your urgent phone line does not pick up

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@LEGOLANDWindsor @jamesmurray_ldn Your outsourcing says they want written proof of a missing leg it's ridiculous and insulting

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

I am finding this a bit hard to understand, holding peacful protesters on remand while at the same time implementing early release for violent and sex offenders? @jamesmurray_ldn any insights? Perhaps system needs to catch up with new government?

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

Our prisons are overflowing , yet 5 peaceful protestors have been remanded awaiting sentences for protesting climate breakdown . . . here's a radical idea– stop jailing protestors . They're not the fire , they're raising the alarm !

Thursday @ 4pm
Southwark Crown Court

Japan may have defeated the floppy disc but TFL seems solidly staying with the DVD and Royal Mail to share video which kind of beggars belief it must cost more than the fine to do this @TfL

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

A sad day for UK justice and I feel that the name Silas Reid will have a special place in the history books if we have a history feels like we are living in Hong Kong

[Plan B Earth @PlanB_earth]

BREAKING: Judge Silas Reid has today sent the indomitable Amy Pritchard to prison for 10 months.

He suspended the sentences of four others, who joined her in breaking windows at JP Morgan.

Here's what Amy said to Judge Reid that riled him so much

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@EalingCouncil @TfL I think the relevant teams need take a look again its getting worse and the site itself appears to be flooding, this feels like it could be really dangerous @TfL

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Anyone at @TfL looking into the water seeping from the building site at west ealing into the embankment retaining wall, not feeling very safe @EalingCouncil any of your BC people on this?

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@bt_uk Its taking a long time they were due to call back last Friday

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Anyone else experiencing a total fail from BT Parental Controls? Its been two weeks with a tween in the house fighting about why I cant let her online @bt_uk #InternetSafety

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

Feeling nervous about my bigegst swimming challenge to date the 24hour Level Water swim which I am doing solo. @JustGiving please donate if you can its a very good cause. Thank you! #JustGiving https://t.co/YXTklbNsnz

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@bt_uk Can you chase up my fault and compliant I have had no call back in several days

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@sheppertonswim how do I book the website is confounding me and I cant find you on Actio

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

@bt_uk Your technical team say they will get back to me but this fault has been 'fixed' more than three times and seems to get worse with each fix

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"Ofwat could cut sewage fines for financially struggling water firms, say reports."

You are witnessing @Ofwat's death song.

Finally the admission, they act in the name of greed and incompetence not in the name of customers or our rivers.

End it. Now!

[Gerald Power @geraldpower]

I cannot fathom the logic, the industry dumped sewage as it was never fined and the answer is to not fine it?

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

"Outrage at Ofwat plans to cut sewage-dumping fines for water firms."

It really has to be the dumbest idea ever through of by any regulator ever, anywhere, at any point, at any moment in the known history of the universe

Ofwat, a cathedral of mediocrity
