Never thought the day would come and still hoping it won't as XTwitter still works better for me than the alternatives. However, as insurance I'd advise you to follow me on the others and I'll follow you back. All the links on my personal website. stuartbruce.info/#:~:text=NE…

I was part of that charity ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ at the iconic Blackpool Tower. We were raising money for the brilliant @mndcampaigns . Putting in effort (and training) to support causes he cares about is who @andyburnham is and we should absolutely applaud him for it . 🕺🏻🪩

@BBCPolitics Is woefully compromised in its reporting. Wonder how this contributes to the growing number of licence fee refusers?

Love these videos from @tom_watson tackling head-on the misinformation about Palintir.
Tom Watson
@tom_watson22h
Nobody wants to buy a service they can’t walk away from. Palantir’s critics have long claimed we ‘lock in’ our customers. We don’t. This short film explains why. It’s the first in a series on the gap between the rhetoric about Palantir and the work we actually do.

EU Freedom of Movement is NOT an unconditional right under EU law: it is conditional on finding a job or being self-sufficient i.e. not being a burden on taxpayers. Otherwise they have no right to stay. #BBCLauraK

Great talking to @ChrisBurn_Post at @yorkshirepost about the progress we are making. There’s plenty still to do at Northern. Our ambition and recent track record help to illustrate our confidence in the future. 👉 yorkshirepost.co.uk/business…

Is Northern Trains finally on the right track as passenger numbers jump?

After years of being a byword for unreliable services, rail operator Northern is seeing passenger numbers rise and has even more ambitious targets for the future. Commercial and customer director...

We are @OctopusEnergy customers and I know @g__j. We live in a very old house and potentially need to replace our gas boiler. Until I heard this interview I had assumed a heat pump wouldn't work for us. Now wondering if it would.
Octopus Energy
@OctopusEnergyOct 23
Tesla vs milk float. That’s how far heat pumps have come. On @TimesRadio this morning, our CEO @g__j took on one of the most common heat pump myths: that they only work in very specific types of (new) homes. But here’s where things stand now: → Heat pumps can heat as hot as a gas boiler → With the Boiler Upgrade Scheme, a like-for-like replacement is cheaper to fit than a gas boiler in 59% of cases → They typically save 25-40% on heating bills Thousands of installers have been trained in recent years, and British manufacturers, including us, are building heat pumps designed for British homes. We’ve seen this play out before. China backed electric vehicles early, went all in on manufacturing and skills, and now leads the world in making them. Heat pumps are the UK’s chance to do the same. Build the industry here, and the jobs, skills and exports follow.

The list sent by Harold Wilson to his cabinet of “little things that mean a lot”, including the protection of pubs, concessionary fares for the elderly, empty office blocks and “the future of the pint”. Echoes of this in Burnham’s small but popular policies today.

Today in the UK, I saw how the Yorkshire Ambulance Service is using Copilot to cut down on administrative work and make better use of its data, and ultimately provide a better experience for medical personnel and patients. It's an early example of what's possible as NHS England expands Copilot to as many as 500,000 clinicians and support staff across the country.

Fantastic and sensible decision by the government to approve drilling at Jackdaw. Good for so many reasons.
Ryan Wain
@ryan_wainOct 21
Absolutely right decision to grant permission for Jackdaw today. ✅ Energy security
✅ Revenue for Britain
✅ Gas flowing this winter
✅ Jobs protected
✅ Investment unlocked Kudos to my colleague @ToneLangengen for leading the debate on this - even when it was difficult.

It's also amazing how well connected to public transport you are, arriving in the UK on the Eurostar: - St Pancras - Kings Cross - Piccadilly Line - Circle Line - Hammersmith & City - Metropolitan - District - Victoria - Northern - Thameslink - trains from LNER, Lumo, Great Northern, Grand Central, Hull Trains Every city on the GB rail network can be reached in 2 or fewer changes.
David Milner@djjmilnerOct 20
Arriving into St Pancras does make you a bit proud. Eurostar train to the underground in about 5 minutes and unlike arriving into many airports the elegant building, bustle of the station and attractive public realm must give a great first impression of Britain.
