I did actually get up early enough to vote before work today, and remembered my ID... Sadly I was just a bit too late for the rare experience of voting from the back of a car

Disappointing performance by England so far (they did better when they were 2 men down) Wales aren't brilliant but they are making fewer errors and have actually taken a few decent chances #ENGvWAL
Well England failed to capitalize on good opportunities early on (good defence by Wales) and are now a try down and then our tradition of getting yellow carded continues (but two of them???) And then damn we actually manage to score and conversion fluffed. This is wild #ENGvWAL
Ouch... I'd be feeling very frustrated if I was a Scotland fan, had the ref asked a question differently that would have been awarded a try I'm sure. #SCOvFRA

In the aftermath of storm Isha, a hopeful soul arrives at the train station. He looks at the screens, desperate to find his train, and to his great surprise finds that the train is running on time
I have known about the Post Office scandal for quite some time but Mr Bates vs The Post Office really drives home the human cost of this huge miscarriage of justice
Red wine marinated brisket, slow cooked with a beef bone and red wine sauce, mash, braised red cabbage, and roasted celeriac - it was very tasty (even if it looks a mess)
So rare for me to do anything like this but I do love a good ribeye steak, braised red cabbage, roast carrots and mash but it was darn tasty
Yesterday I spent several hours making my attempt at a chicken and chorizo gumbo (apologies to folks who know how to make a proper gumbo)
Dinner was a simple sandwich tonight, chicken cutlet, rocket, spinach, homemade basil mayo and then a Greek salad as a side
The national government's transport strategy is to prioritise potholes. If the governments management of HS2 is anything to go by each pothole will take 20 years to fix, and cost £1bn each

For dinner tonight a chicken cutlet sandwich, with roasted red peppers, rocket, spinach, and a homemade basil mayo (damn that was a lot of whisking to make the mayo) - inspired by something I saw on a @ChefReactions video
Had to call @Dominos_UK and was told that they might be able to deliver my pizza in about 2 hours time, I've already waited almost 2 hours

A day out in Sevilla for us this weekend ! A nice little break 😊
Male violence. You can't fix it without understanding feminism, so men need to educate themselves.
Violence against women is not a problem that women should have to solve. Governments need to do better, men need to step up and as a society we must do better. We know there is so much more to do. And we will keep working.
I honestly don’t see the point in owning a newspaper website if I can’t actually read the news because an advert is popping over the text every two seconds????
All the best to everyone at #dddsw @dddsouthwest for tomorrow. Unfortunately this is going to be the first one ever that I miss. Hope you all have a great time, see you next year.
legend has it that if you say “correlation does not necessarily equal causation” to bam sowman his head will explode
Just spent an hour on the phone to @virginmedia trying (and failing) to get them to reduce the cost of my parents’ WiFi/phone/TV which is currently over £100pm. There is a promotional deal for new customers of £33. It’s appalling how these companies exploit loyal customers.
The UK is going to conduct state sponsored human trafficking. This shitty fucking island really is determined to become the scummiest place in Europe. A backwards inward-looking stagnant pond tearing at itself in a fit of psychosis. The opposition will not be the cure. Bleak.
Rwanda is not a safe country for refugees, regardless of whether parliament voted to formalise a lie. 5 years ago refugees were murdered by the Rwandan police ffs. There's no provisions in this act to ensure that people trafficked by the UK through this agreement will be safe.
Some of the replies to this. This country, man. Popping pronouns in your email footer harms nobody but might make someone else feel a bit more comfortable.
Today's Twitter Poll: Do you include your pronouns (eg she/her) in the footer of your email or social media handle or equivalent?
The Right: whatever you suffer is your fault, and we'll punish you for it. The Left: systemic factors cause inequalities, and we'll try and fix them so you don't suffer.
When people criticize politicians for being out of touch, privileged, clueless, tone deaf, call it what you will, this - I would submit - is a prime example of what those critics are talking about, and with 100% justification.
So you get one of these illnesses that just about everybody in the country has had, often multiple times, in recent years, and suddenly you're part of a "sick note culture" because the dimwit government requires you to get a note. Rishi, STFU and get in the fucking sea, will you?
So let's say you get flu or COVID, or norovirus, and you're ill for a week: you're supposed to get a fit note from the doctor for your employer. That's the bloody government's rule, not your employer's rule.
That would be 1/3 of the UK workforce. Also employees are required to get a "fit note" (known as a sick note to us normies) if they're ill for more than 7 days consecutively. That includes weekends.
(And, yes, I saw the top line figure of 11 million sign offs, but it would defy credibility to imagine that the devil isn't in the detail there. Starting with the most obvious point: in no way were 11 million individuals, nor anywhere close to that number, signed off last year.)
Been working (post-graduation) for 24 years now. I have *no idea* what this "sick note culture" is: bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…. In my experience of colleagues being signed off work it's because they've really needed to be signed off work. This is deranged and *does* lack compassion.
@IJohnson_TNF I personally think it's just culture war stuff and they're trying to win votes by rallying against some imaginary "other"
