Every time I travel from Waterloo after 10pm – 2-5 times a week – the trains are (politely) completely fucked

This is public ownership of our railways in action

This is public ownership of our railways in action.

Less than 100 days since we nationalised Britain's biggest train operator, we are delivering changes passengers have been asking for.

I wasted 16 hours once on getting HMRC to reverse an incorrect £70,000 VAT demand that would have destroyed my business which was about to open in two weeks (and had not made any VATable supplies yet)

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Reform UK has announced people forced to wait over 30 minutes on the phone to HMRC will receive £30 in tax credit at the end of the tax year

[Richard Crampton-Platt @TheGreedyDick]

A decision I never thought I'd be confronted with

@OldRoberts953 At least now there's a slickly produced video that shows just what many of us have been saying over the last few years

But let's make it harder to employ people

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

When I talk to young people about work, the same thing keeps coming up. Not a lack of ambition - a lack of a way in.

One million young people in this country are not in education, work or training. That's around one in eight. And six in ten of them have never had a job at all.

I know that these young people aren't lazy. They have been let down by a system that told them there was only one route to success, and then left them without the opportunities to get their foot in the door anywhere else.

Too often, work experience has depended on who you know, rather than what you can do.

Last month we changed the education system so that from 14, young people can access proper technical education, with real skills, real work experience and real links to employers where they live.

Now we're bringing employers, schools and colleges together to close the gap between the classroom and the workplace.

The youth unemployment crisis has been ignored for too long.

That ends now.

[Richard Crampton-Platt @TheGreedyDick]

Do I know any young people trying to get on the jobs ladder with strong opinions on work/rights/pay/stability

For a thing - dms open

@BenGoldsmith Almost. It doesnt include Bermondsey Street

@fin_lay24 A man (who wanted my number) came up to me tonight to break the news. ‘Dolly’s dead’ isn’t the miracle chat-up line he thought it was, but I admire his pluck.

RIP

Fuck yesss - ill sleep with my back door open to eake up in the middle of the night and listen to the drama

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

From 3am, London is at risk of severe flash floods.

Intense downpours could see up to 50mm of rainfall arrive in the space of just a few hours - almost the total average rainfall for August.

Don’t be caught out - check your insurance covers flooding and see what more you can do to prepare:

@CF_Farrow Have you ever been on the night tub? Plenty of girls of dubious age dressing as scantily clad as this, if not copying the Westwood-y vibe
