Covid meant hotels needed longer to clean rooms and only allowed 3 pm check-in. They also didn’t clean your room during your stay. The practice continues for no good reason other than profit.
Bought a #Dyson V15 (I know, I know). It cost EUR 800 and packed in after a year. We've spent HOURS trying to get support from them, they've sent us round the houses and completely wasted our time. A hideously expensive mistake. Don't touch them!
Excellent news. The Tories should never have got rid of media studies. theguardian.com/education/ar…

Nigel Farage says it upsets him when people call the far-right violence 'The Farage Riots'. So people should definitely not do that

The OBR has confirmed they were only told about the massive overspends in Jeremy Hunt's Spring Statement last week.
This confirms the Tories covered up a £22 billion black hole in their budget before the election.
Never believe what they say about the public finances ever again
Was wondering what my former Tory MP was up to now only to discover that he blocked me *after* losing his seat. I can’t think when I lasted tweeted him. A bit paranoid to go through your followers presumably blocking everyone.

Preparation is the key to success.

Because Gary Lineker occasionally speaks out and is, broadly, on the right page and perceived to be one of the 'good guys' we're too afraid to criticise. Sorry, but his salary is grotesque. Why the hell aren't people more outraged? bbc.com/news/articles/c0w4xq…

Newly elected members of the French parliament refusing to shake hands with the far right is extremely satisfying. A particular shout out to the rock paper scissors gag.

Didn't like the way this @JDVance1 bloke (newly picked as #Trump's running mate) slagged off the UK lately. Looked into him. Not great. Made a parody song inspired by @ABBA called "Vance VP" 🎶

BREAKING: This Kamala Harris ad from 2020 still goes hard. Retweet to ensure every American sees it. xitter.cf/AdamJSmithGA/status/18…
Just been back to the U.K. for a week. Love it and miss a lot about it but, by God, it’s a filthy country. It’s scruffy, so much is falling apart and the litter has to be seen to be believed. Can it ever be fixed?

This is a fascinating Dr Hannah Fry clip on how austerity came about by an error in a spreadsheet.. #bbcqt
