'you can't legislate your way out of 13 years of failure' - Keir on proposed anti-strike bill in his first big speech of the year. He hopes to engage with nurses and other key workers with real reform and dialogue - and I am hopeful. #KeirStarmer

Apparently @Meatliquor the monkey fingers are now breaded fried chicken. Called the restaurant after I received my takeout and was told the 'recipe has changed'. Not sure how changing an entire dish is changing a recipe. Sadly both the chicken and batter are now dry. RIP

Had the opportunity to discuss #blockchain as a form of #digitalidentity #digitalid with experts in the field from @Hyperledger to @VodafoneGroup. Some really interesting perspectives on how blockchain #selfsovereignidentity can empower users.

EXCITING NEWS! @raconteur has a gorgeous new website and brilliantly bold new branding. But the changes are more than skin deep, as the wonderful @scviz explains here: https://t.co/LiAmWypEnj

As part of #blackhistorymonth we asked a panel of Black business leaders what they think business can do to improve diversity and increase the pace of change.

@LloydsBank Hi Pauline - yep it cant be replaced - case has been escalated by your colleague who was very nice. It is just crazy that the system is such that there was no solution anyone could offer me - total of 1h25 mins on the phone just to (not) get a 16 digit card number.

[Emma Perry @pezwritesstuff]

Been on the phone for over an hour with @LloydsBank and they can't provide me with my credit card number for my own card, nor can they issue me a replacement or confirm that they have any record of it even though I am looking at it right now on my statement. #poorcustomerservice

At COP26 Alok Sharma said: “We have kept 1.5 degrees alive but its pulse is weak.” As we approach #COP27 , the 1.5 promise remains on life support. @iioannoulbs and @KayaAxelsson explain the progress that's been made and their hopes for Sharm El-Sheikh
