@ChaponaBike123 Did you report the cyclist in the orange that didn't even stop at the red lights. I don't agree with using the phone but at least they didn't jump the lights.
@MartinSLewis@RachelReevesMP Why just means tested benefits, We live in an old house in band E without double glazing, my wife is terminally ill, bedbound so I need to keep our heating on full-time through winter yet she only gets attendance allowance. Under the tories, we got extra help.
@Tesco receive my points and asked to get the app. Can't do it coz wants to confirm who I am. Can't coz wrong number. Can't change coz got to confirm who I am. Rang and was cut off.
This is Frank and he has had a coffee stand at the top of the steps at Bethnal Green tube for as long as I can remember.
When the new restaurant/coffee shop next door opened along with another high street outlet opening across the street, Frank suddenly found that his license from the council had been revoked and he was chucked off his stand.
I believe it was to make way for these new shops to take his regular custom. They didn’t need him in the way of gaining maximum profit... so Frank was gone.
Well the locals were having none of it and a petition started demanding his return.
How dare they do this to him.
How dare these people smash his business and leave him with nothing.
After a lot of pressure the council backed down and Frank had his licence and pitch returned to him but sadly by that time Frank had sold his equipment to feed his family and try to survive.
So the good people of Bethnal Green started crowdfunding and here’s the result... Frank back in business on his old pitch with brand new equipment and even a little hut now to shelter him from the rain... Brilliant!!
He is truly the happiest man in East London and it’s wonderful to see.
It really does show that if we all stick together, stand up to them and just say no... the little guy can win.
If you’re in Bethnal Green come and have a coffee with this lovely man. 🧡

Rishi Sunak lied to you about partygate.
His election campaign is built on lies.
He lied on NHS waiting lists. Small boats. The cost of living.
You just can't trust him.
BBC News in Clacton:
"I voted to leave, but I wish I hadn't," says Clacton resident Jill Ayling, 76.
"We didn't know the whole truth, did we? We were supposed to get money for the National Health Service, but to my mind it hasn't happened.
"If I had to vote again, I'd vote to stay."
