Hey @TLRailUK did you forget about all your Covid measures at Luton Airport Parkway? Still have half the escalator entrances blocked off, and big ‘no entry’ signs on one of the main doors, despite both main doors opening into the same ticket barrier area 🙃

Hey @currys I’m overseas and trying to resolve something, but I’m only given the option to call. This is ‘just’ inconvenient for me, but makes me question how (or if…) you resolve issues for your customers who can’t call for some reason. How do you accommodate disabilities?

Hey @EE I’m overseas, and for some reason there’s a ‘call bar’ on my phone. It’s been >24 hours since I used your support system to request a call back, but haven’t heard from you. I can’t see how to change this myself, and I can’t get in touch with you. How do I solve this?

Entertained by the barrage of 1-star reviews for the @McDonaldsUK iOS app. Occasionally I like to treat myself to a burger, and like so many others found their app no longer works to actually order anything 😅 Guess it’ll be something else for my treat tonight!

Hey @myenergiuk @JordeeBrompton I have not enrolled my device in your DSR scheme, and after you previously auto-enrolled me I specifically choose to opt out of the scheme again. Now you’re telling me that once again you’re taking control of my device? This is getting silly…

Last minute cancellation, so if anyone is in London tonight and would like to join me to see this please let me know! 8pm in Soho, can have dinner too 🤓
I just did something a little impulsive. In October, Soho Place theatre have ‘White Rabbit Red Rabbit’ - and on the 18th with Freema Agyeman. Since first seeing her on Dr Who, in Sens8 and more recently on the series ‘New Amsterdam’ I’m excited!

Sadly predictable. Allison is a ‘journalist’ who is associated with the Tufton St climate change delial group ‘Global Warming Policy Foundation’. Literally paid to be a Tufton St Telegraph mouthpiece, to spread misinformation and delaying tactics.

Hey @WeAreOpenreach when my fibre was installed last week (very exciting!) this was left beside where the external work was carried out. I believe it’s some sort of barrier to stop my cavity insulation spilling across to the adjoining house. Is it normal for this to be removed?

"Self-interested lobbyist pushes evidence-free fossil fuel industry propaganda against heat pumps having bribed Labour government to favour his alternative solution and nab a peerage in the process" is obviously not what's happening here, right?

What is it about the pathway from ‘save the world’ entrepreneur to ‘screw the world’ pseudo-eco ultra-rich?
The government’s heat pump programme risks tens of millions of people forking out thousands for technology that doesn’t deliver. The case for all homes to have heat pumps does not stack up. Let’s have a proper debate on this informed by the facts. theguardian.com/environment/…

Important context: Dale Vince is founder and CEO of Ecotricity. Ecotricity is pursuing biogas as an alternative energy source, competing directly with heat pumps as a net zero home heating solution. ecotricity.co.uk/our-green-ener…

Yesterday was one of the most important talks at the @Everyth1ngElec show - Highlighting how getting everyone to drive electric means making sure everyone -can- drive electric, making sure to consider accessibility and affordability. With the wonderful @kate_tyrrell of course!
