Oh please @eamonnbutler thousands of Deaf people need British Sign Language interpreters. BSL is not even the same word order as spoken or written English! Communicating in someones language is not unnecessary PC! #WheresTheInterpreter #COVID19 @Channel4News @BBCSeeHear

[Eamonn Butler @eamonnbutler]

@RoyLilley @Number10press It's unnecessary political correctness. Few deaf people actually use signing. Most read lips. Subtitles, as available on news programmes, are even better. Non-deaf people can find side-signing very distracting; some with certain medical conditions find it actually disturbing.

"It's only right we ask the wealthiest to pay their fair share. otherwise, we can't fix services like the National Health Service"
🤔 Sure we can begin this exercise within the House of Commons & work our way out!

Spent 20 mins trying to remember a fab podcast with a sports guy who interviewed some sports people, but it wasn't exactly sports, it was life but good. Steve? Simon? episode about a Welsh ref.. @simonmundie the search was intense 😁 #ANewWayOfBeing #NowFollowing @SpotifyUK

Playing my first @OfficialFPL, at this point, I think having Haaland in the team is like bowling with the barriers up... I'm not doing it.
I need to walk the paths of the FPL forefathers #BeforeHaaland #FantasyFootball

Surely the problem is the travel industry who hike up prices in the school holidays & impact those on lower incomes #JeremyVine #SchoolHolidays

Any updates for the Deaf community @10DowningStreet @Channel4News @BBCNews #KeirStarmer

[British Deaf Association @BDA_Deaf]

Deaf people have been left in limbo: we're with @RNID, and we still don’t know if there will be a British Sign Language interpreter there when Keir Starmer gives his first speech as our new Prime Minister.

Real Reasons why Gaddafi was killed

1. Libya had no electricity bills, electricity came free of charge to all citizens.

2. There were no interest rates on loans, the banks were state-owned, the loan of citizens by law 0%.

3. Gaddafi promised not to buy a house for his parents until everyone in Libya owns a home.

4. All newlywed couples in Libya received 60,000 dinars from the government & because of that they bought their own apartments & started their families.

5. Education & medical treatment in Libya are free. Before Gaddafi there were only 25% readers, 83% during his reign

6. If Libyans wanted to live on a farm, they received free household appliances, seeds and livestock.

7. If they cannot receive treatment in Libya, the state would fund them $2300+ accommodation & travel for treatment abroad.

8. If you bought a car, the government finances 50% of the price.

9. The price of gasoline became $ 0.14 per liter.

10. Libya had no external debt, and reserves were $150 Billion (now frozen worldwide)

11. Since some Libyans can't find jobs after school, the government will pay the average salary when they can't find a job.

12. Part of oil sales in Libya are directly linked to the bank accounts of all citizens.

13. The mother who gave birth to the child will receive $5000

14. 40 loaves of bread cost $0.15.

15. Gaddafi has implemented the world's biggest irrigation project known as the "BIG MAN PROJECT" to ensure water availability in the desert.

Today marks 7 years since the Grenfell Tower fire. 72 people lost their lives in this preventable tragedy. They were victims of corporate greed and institutional neglect. The fight for justice is far from over.

Aww veteran Ken, "we're supposed to be looking at the [war] ship". The irony of the @BBCBreakfast reporter for Ken to just give the ship a quick wave when many veterans were in Portsmouth to literally see the ship sail & reflect on their comrades. #WeCouldWait #DDayVeterans

If I don’t start hearing more about The Green’s historic and exceptional success at the Local Elections from BBC News I am boycotting it.

Not because I’m a Green supporter but because a basic prerequisite for a national broadcaster is to report the f’ing truth!!!!
