Another fun-filled memory of our summer sailing, with an unexpected ending - https://t.co/hQ76XYzOuT
Guiding Star is for sale through @WoodenShips1 . Come and see her in Plymouth before we de-rig her for winter in late November.

The days are getting shorter and it's pouring with rain so here's a story on our golden weekend at the Looe Lugger Regatta in May. And a reminder Guiding Star is for sale: see the listing on Wooden Ships. https://t.co/leZyLUfzco

@tescomobile Oh, and ‘rising costs’ are covered by the inflation increase you’re charging. It’s the 3.9% on top of that I’m asking you to justify.

[Paul Eedle @pauleedle]

@tescomobile Your new policy of increasing prices every year by 3.9% more than inflation is outrageous. Are you promising us 3.9% more value each year? Or are you just building in ever-increasing profits? You too @virginmedia

[Paul Eedle @pauleedle]

@tescomobile You’ve run a very good service for the decade I’ve been with you without increasing prices every year. In fact prices came down slightly. What’s changed?

@sallyelh Was deeply moved by The Swimmers, wept almost all the way through. Extraordinary achievement to get this story a mainstream treatment. Many congratulations and good luck with the next one.

And we criticise Qatar’s kafala system? “Strict visa rules prevent them from working in other sectors or on farms not connected with their original sponsor.” https://t.co/sOaInugLnT

All true but not a revelation. Lawrence’s shame is well documented, and most of the first chapter described here is in the ‘Complete 1922 Text’ which anybody can buy online https://t.co/U7jOIlNHie

@NileGardiner @trussliz What nonsense

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

It’s time to put an end to Tory damage.

It’s time for economic stability and strong leadership with Labour.

It’s time for you to have a say on the future of this country. Agree? Add your name.

@sophielouisecc Why not?

Do you think Johnson statement tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? If so press LIKE. If on the other hand you think it is the deluded self-serving bullshit of a disgraced lying lawbreaker press RETWEET

This gripping FT documentary on the effects of Brexit has now had 1.6m views in a week. Free to view. It is really worth your time - shows very clearly the economic cost of Brexit. Chapeau to producer @DanGarrahan and the other FT folk involved https://t.co/IqLLQVtWFH

@sundersays It would be terrific for the UK to have its first non-white PM. Just a pity it has to be a Brexiteer Tory who’s so far proved a rather weak politician.
