@OUHospitals what's the point of having appointments if you can't stick to them anyway? We might as well just turn up whenever since the appointment time means nothing apparently. Will be putting in a claim for parking costs.

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

At what point do we say no to Isreal using the antisemitism card for whenever someone retaliates back towards their brutalities?

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

What sort of language is this please? @BBCNews is this the BBC or the roadmans group chat?

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@RoyalMailHelp I have please can you reply

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@RoyalMailHelp hello, why has my parcel been stuck at Swindon depot for the past week?

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@British_Airways I was able to track my luggage but now I can't? It says it can't find a match?

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@British_Airways why wasn't my luggage boarded into my flight with and why was it also not boarded onto the next flight as promised? I've travelled for a funeral with absolutely nothing to wear expect those I have on.

This is a dark, dark day for people around the globe. The world’s largest economy and most powerful military will be led by a dangerous, destructive demagogue.

I've been asked what my favourite commentary is on the budget and it's unquestionably this exchange.

Coming soon to a TV near you: a month of politicians wearing poppies and sad, serious faces while simultaneously arming a genocide.

Britain finally reaps what the Daily Mail, GB News, Reform UK and Suella Braverman have sown

My polling station in Gospel Oak this morning.

Democracy anyone?

[David__Osland @David__Osland]

So just to recap, our unelected head of state has given a position in Britain's unelected House of Lords to an unelected foreign secretary, on the recommendation of an unelected prime minister

On November 7th, 1920, in strictest secrecy, four unidentified British bodies were exhumed from temporary battlefield cemeteries at Ypres, Arras, the Asine and the Somme.

None of the soldiers who did the digging were told why.

The bodies were taken by field ambulance to GHQ at St-Pol-Sur-Ter Noise. Once there, the bodies were draped with the union flag.

Sentries were posted and Brigadier-General Wyatt and a Colonel Gell selected one body at random. The other three were reburied.

A French Honour Guard was selected and stood by the coffin overnight of the chosen soldier overnight.

On the morning of the 8th November, a specially designed coffin made of oak from the grounds of Hampton Court arrived and the Unknown Warrior was placed inside.

On top was placed a crusaders sword and a shield on which was inscribed:

"A British Warrior who fell in the GREAT WAR 1914-1918 for King and Country".

On the 9th of November, the Unknown Warrior was taken by horse-drawn carriage through Guards of Honour and the sound of tolling bells and bugle calls to the quayside.

There, he was saluted by Marechal Foche and loaded onto HMS Vernon bound for Dover. The coffin stood on the deck covered in wreaths, surrounded by the French Honour Guard.

Upon arrival at Dover, the Unknown Warrior was met with a nineteen gun salute - something that was normally only reserved for Field Marshals.

A special train had been arranged and he was then conveyed to Victoria Station, London.

He remained there overnight, and, on the morning of the 11th of November, he was finally taken to Westminster Abbey.

The idea of the unknown warrior was thought of by a Padre called David Railton who had served on the front line during the Great War the union flag he had used as an altar cloth whilst at the front, was the one that had been draped over the coffin.

It was his intention that all of the relatives of the 517,773 combatants whose bodies had not been identified could believe that the Unknown Warrior could very well be their lost husband, father, brother or son...

THIS is the reason we wear poppies.

We do not glorify war.

We remember - with humility - the great and the ultimate sacrifices that were made, not just in this war, but in every war and conflict where our service personnel have fought - to ensure the liberty and freedoms that we now take for granted.

Every year, on the 11th of November, we remember the Unknown Warrior.

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Israeli air strikes have hit Al Ahli hospital in Gaza. More than 500 people - patients, doctors & those sheltering - have been killed.

What unspeakable horror. We will mourn their loss forever.

Our leaders could have spoken up for peace. They chose to cheer on war instead.

When will they demand an end to these atrocious war crimes? How many Palestinian lives will it take to call for these indiscriminate killings to stop?

Please, for the sake of humanity, raise your voice for an immediate ceasefire. The existence of the Palestinian people is at stake.

@StarbucksUK Hi, I visited your RH13AL store this evening and asked for a white chocolate mocha, which typically comes with coffee. But I was given white chocolate milk (see video) as I was already on the motorway I couldn't turn back. What a waste of my money. I'd like a refund.

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@nextofficial I have sent you a DM

[Leyla @lyl16180208]

@nextofficial my next day store delivery was meant to arrive on Sunday but it hasn't even left the warehouse. How can I cancel? I can't do it online.

A staggering 14 million people now living in poverty, a million adults in the UK can’t afford to eat every day, 9 million skipping meals & cutting back on food, a record 2.1 million using food banks, 7 million households going without heating, GP’s prescribing nutritional drinks to starving patients, thousands hospitalized with malnutrition & children in food poverty doubled in the last year - but according to Rishi Sunak the “plan” is working
