On the other hand when I was losing all hope & belief in big corporations @OctopusEnergy replied to my email query immediately with resolution and no battles or stress. I'll have to live in hope that they go maverick and buy out every other company so the world can run smoothly
Today I have cried on the phone to @O2 after diabolical treatment and service resulting in loads of anxiety over last three months due to a catalogue of errors and am part way through writing to the ombudsman for support . . .
A riot is not a protest.
A racist is not an activist.
A thug is not a patriot.
Far right extremism is precisely that.
Words matter.
Why are some in the media refusing to use them accurately?
Every protester blocking that fire engine should be facing 5 years at least
Sentence given to JSO for blocking roads - that has to be the least for blocking emergency vehicles getting to a serious incident

Vile man with horrific views "Shoot them dead he says about Asylum Seekers."
Then when the woman he is arguing with disagrees he says "Go get raped you stupid slut."
Anyone know who he is?
Prof Stephen Reicher, "I would appeal to you to not call these people protestors. They're not protestors"
"To call them protestors is profoundly misleading. It is to discredit a long tradition of perfectly legitimate and peaceful and important protest that has made our society better in many ways"
"What's going on is specific to these crowds.. Crowd psychology is there when people are cleaning up the streets as well as attacking the streets.. The difference is one group has an ideology of hate and violence, another has a vision of community and solidarity"
"Most people are pro immigration.. The irony is that over recent years attitudes towards immigration has become more positive.. People see immigrants as a boom rather than as a menace to the country.. Britain is one of the more liberal countries"
"If we didn't have migrants then our care service would fall apart, our NHS would fall apart.. It's important not to highlight the negative exceptions, but to show that most people are pro migrants"
Let’s get this Manchester rioter named, sacked and jailed. A member of a gang who attacked a lone black man. When the black man got up to defend himself, this fascist coward ran!
So yesterday far right racist rioters in Sunderland threw rocks & missiles at Filipino NHS nurses on their way to provide emergency cover at the hospital.
Your silence is deafening @Nigel_Farage & your band of inciters of racist hate.
Shame on you.

Video reportedly taken by one of the migrants in the Rotherham hotel. A masked man clearly drawing his hand across his throat.
Vile. Let’s find out who these thugs are.
Two young lads decided to throw 2 bricks through Hays Travel Sunderland today. Why? Seriously why? We’re a Sunderland based business who do huge amounts for the local community, dedicate nearly £1m a year to charities across the UK, we’re taking on more than 500 apprentices. Why?
What the news isn’t currently showing - #Middlesbrough.
The Muslim community bringing cups of tea and biscuits for the police officers, they’ve been doing this all day too ❤️#riots#RiotsUK#Rotherham#Blackburn
