We have received a letter from PM @RishiSunak pledging to call for release of Alaa "at the highest levels" and an end to his "unacceptable treatment."

Alaa has just drunk his last glass of water 2hrs ago as .. let's hope this letter translates into action #COP27

The Bank of England has just published this chart that shows a) inflation is going to disappear from next March onwards and so b) no rate rise is required now as inflation is already under control. So why did they increase interest rates when there is no reason to do so?

They're also conveniently no longer on Twitter. Couldn't take the heat?

Over a dozen Nobel laureates have published an open letter calling for the release of thousands of political prisoners in Egypt in the run up to and during next week’s international climate conference. (1/2)

Wow. Just wow. These people have no shame - and we have no functioning democracy.

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

The funding of the ERG comes from the taxpayer. It’s a lobby group within the Conservative Party - payed for by us, but secretive and unaccountable.

@RendallRittner @MandMBuildings Hi Tara, it would be great if we'd got a response from the R&R employee who's supposed to be responsible for our building - not with excuses or explanations, but with the accounts. I think they've had more than enough time wouldn't you agree?

[Mariam Ali-Puttergill @mariamali7]

@HannahAlOthman Sorry Hannah just saw this - done!

[Robin Hawkes @RobinHawkes1]

Great turnout @TowerHamletsJL New Providence Wharf angry at Govt @RobertJenrick @team_greenhalgh @mhclg abject failure to tackle #BuildingSafetyCrisis Wake up and take action before there’s yet more fires! #EnoughIsEnough

@Harpree25132669 @EOCS_Official @LondonCAG @MandMBuildings I really wonder why they are refusing to replace the flammable timber decking on our balconies, it's terrifying but they say it's not even the freeholder's responsibility!!! But then they're not taking responsibility for any of this

[Mariam Ali-Puttergill @mariamali7]

@RaphaelCormack @Hragy Yes thank you! It was great.

Could I ask if you know where I can get a copy of زغلولات مصر? You mention it in the book and I'd love to read it, but Google got nothing.

We're calling for more support for those facing bills of thousands of pounds due to cladding & other fire safety defects.

Mariam lives in a building with multiple fire safety defects. Residents in her building paid £1m for a waking watch & fire alarm system. This is her story 👇

[Kath Pinnock 🔶💙 @KathPinnock]

As I suspected, the Government didn’t even permit a vote on any of the amendments in the Commons to the Fire Safety Bill. Clearly fearful of the outcome. What sort of democracy refuses to even allow a vote to take place?

[Lawrence Hunt @huntmj28]

The FD of Kingspan describes the fallout from the inquiry as “very manageable”

What incentive does the construction industry have to change its culture if they aren’t held to account?

Leaseholders are paying a higher price

I was today years old when I learned that oxen are working cows (or steers), and not in fact a separate animal. How did I not know this?? Has everyone else known all along?

“These are not rich people, who gambled and lost. They are fairly average households that bought homes in good faith, only to find they were fire-traps – because developers had cut corners in the name of profit, and because of government failure...” Well said @BigIssue
