BBC Radio Tees: “When is the general election?”

Rishi Sunak *starts laughing*

BBC Radio Tees: “why are you laughing?”

This is why we stopped getting @HelloFreshUK It may have changed recently, but they take no responsibility for taking back the insulation and packaging material.

@douglasbulloch @DavidGauke Interesting example, thanks for the share. The article talks mainly about the problems with family owned businesses and inheritance. That's not something I have heard about being a problem in UK. What have I missed?

As a keen mathematician, you’d think @RishiSunak would understand that it’s the path we take to Net Zero that matters: #AreaUnderCurve
Delaying key milestones really matters - even if we stick with 2050.

Each squad in 2023 Women’s World Cup has 23 players, so probability theory says we expect around half the squads to have two members with the same birthday (d/m). Neither England nor Australia have a matching pair, but out of 32 squads, 15 do! The goddess Fortuna is working well

I think you don't fix this so you force me to buy bottled water from one of the many places selling it...@NetworkRailEUS

@Hertz I am clearly talking to a bot here. There was not a "long line".

[@mhorley @mhorley]

Really poor service from @Hertz at Lyon Expury, France. I felt sorry for the guy who was battling with obviously terrible IT systems. Waited nearly an hour for him to process our booking and give me the keys whilst the queue got longer behind me.

[@mhorley @mhorley]

@Hertz It was not a problem of staffing. There were enough staff and actually not many customers. The systems were poor, it took so long to process each customer.

[@mhorley @mhorley]

Send that tweet too soon! Was given a key for a car that didn't exist. Took two members of staff another 15 minutes to swap the booking to another car. Don't know how these guys can do this job. @Hertz @HertzFrance

[@mhorley @mhorley]

@bob_weston67 @Channel4News @PGMcNamara That's exactly the point. The core transmission network needs to be upgraded to make sure that stops happening. I.e. so we can get the power to where it is needed.

🚨Today's news that we could hit 1.5C within a few years confirms what we already knew: that new fossil fuels *have* to stay in the ground. If Sunak is serious about climate leadership, he must cancel the Cumbria coal mine, drop the 100+ new oil & gas licences, and #StopRosebank

[Rupert Read 🌍 🔥 @GreenRupertRead]

Watch: This isn't really about staying below 1.5C anymore. The brutal truth is that goal has gone - and still they plan more oil and gas.

@danbarker I have little interest in the topic in question but I think this would be a great lesson in the importance of specific choice of words if I was an English teacher.

[dan barker @danbarker]

Here is a very short thread on this news story, and how the story has become bigger than it probably deserves to be:

If you read the text the BBC put out here, it says "Public *asked* to swear allegiance to King Charles"

That's not quite the case...

[@mhorley @mhorley]

Now this just makes a whole load of sense. What's not to like?

My article for the @guardian today on why a new oilfield that could potentially produce 500 million barrels of oil cannot be compatible with the UK’s ambitions to be a global leader in clean energy and deliver net zero by 2050
