@Tesco Personal Clubcard Prices. The offer arrived at 17.56 - a couple of hours after my weekly delivery and expires the day before my next weekly delivery. So, absolutely no advantage unless I want to create an additional delivery (with a minimum £50 basket). Every little helps?
@AmazonUK Why, when I request a parcel is put in the shed, do your delivery people leave it in the rain by the front door. Evri manage to put parcels in the shed as do Royal Mail.
The Royals make millions in profit each year, but this has always been shrouded in secrecy, until now.
A joint @C4Dispatches and @thetimes investigation reveals that the King and Prince William are receiving public money through leasing property to public services like the NHS.
🚨 BREAKING: The King and Prince William are using their estates "largely seized by medieval monarchs" for tax-free deals with government departments to maintain their wealth
The King will charge a London NHS Trust over £11 million in 15 years for ambulance parking at a duchy warehouse, while the Ministry of Justice pays £1.5m a year to William's duchy for Dartmoor prison
The royals also charge for crossing rivers, offloading cargo, running cables under beaches, operating schools and charities, and even digging graves

Alan Bates: "The people who have had a very cushy lifestyle.. whilst they have made 100s if not 1000s of individuals suffer, whilst knowing the real truth of what's being going on & denying the truth.. those are the people that should be held responsible"
#MrBatesVsThePostOffice
@juliehes #MrBatesVsThePostOffice we understand so much more now about the depths to which those who govern will sink in order to protect only themselves.
Paula Vennells & all others responsible should be brought to justice, & if there aren't laws to do so, then they need to be created.
Michelle Mone's husband Barrowman has issued a "statement" this morning after @thetimes report showing the National Crime Agency is investigating a £3 million payment into Mone's Coutts bank account, which would prove her direct benefit from the PPE Medpro contract as well as indirectly through trusts.
The statement is full of "look over there", fundamental lies (we saved the govt £100 million - they didn't) & obfuscation. Who'd have thought it?
Obfuscation is where he doesn't mention that he didn't declare his interest on company filings- nowhere on the Companies House declarations at the time.
She didn't declare her interest on official documents, she lied consistently (par for the course), threatened press with libel, lied to her lawyers, lied about her lawyers "they told me to lie" - they didn't.
Now their defence about getting £65 million profit and pandemic profiteering is saying
"I'm not the only one who robbed the public, they're picking on me, it's not fair"
There is so much which needs to be investigated with other companies too. We've been saying this for a long time.
@RachelReevesMP has promised a Covid CORRUPTION Commissioner to investigate them if Labour win the next election.
More to follow with data.....
Don't forget to follow "The VIP Files" with @GoodLawProject and I here.
We have access to huge amounts of data through FOIs and are putting it together about numerous contracts given through the infamous VIP Lane.
It's a Tory mess which stinks and they're still trying to hide a lot of the evidence.
@RevRichardColes The King? You are joking, I assume - why on earth are you suggesting that, for goodness sake? That really would be the final nail in the coffin for democracy.
Prince Andrew paid £12ml to avoid defending allegations in open court that he had sex with a 17 year old victim of sex trafficking. He has never been to America to speak to the FBI about Epstein.
Under the Police Act heckling him sees you charged with public disorder.
Not to rain on the parade, but it's possible that Nadine Dorries has deleted her Twitter account in order to prevent the House of Lords Appointment Committee from scrutinising the unhinged bile she routinely posted.
