Raw sewage coming up the shower and pouring down the street. The management company blames residents…
This is just another example of corners being cut to maximise profit for developers. But a govt and party funded by them is never going to stand up to them.
RT @garthur1: indy100.com/lifestyle/homes-po Every single one of the large new developments in Totnes has shoddy workmanship & poor design - they are either covered in sc…

What a bizarre set of priorities from @RishiSunak

Small boats... Is that seriously in the top five?

What about rebuilding our collapsing public services?
Transitioning to renewable energy?
Transforming childcare to boost the economy?

Clearly a desperate appeal to Tory voters

They need art, music and creativity to make their souls sing and their hands busy.

And a bit about politics and society, and how to form their own opinions would be good too. How to tell news from propaganda.

We need to build healthy, wise adults. More maths isn't the answer

They need to learn about mental health, what healthy relationships look like, consent and respect (did you know there is no govt funding for experts to support this? Millions poured into supporting victims of sexual assault but nothing given to education/prevention work).

The maths thing is a dead cat. But here's my take on it FWIW:

Kids don't need more maths. They need real-world numeracy. They need to understand interest rates and budgeting (credit card debt). How percentages really work (pay rises). Basic statistics applied to real world stuff

RT @susie_dent: Word of the day is a reminder of ‘sparple’ (14th century): to deflect attention from one thing by making a big deal of something else entirely.

@BenCooper86 You’ll love it. Go to LX Factory in Lisbon - converted warehouses, lots of restaurants and bars. Nice atmosphere. Sintra worth the trip. Pastel de Nata… don’t count them, just indulge!

You may not have seen this campaign video. So here’s a reminder about the lies the Vote Leave campaign fed us over how brilliant Brexit would be for the NHS.
It’s time we call out all those who still blindly support this foolhardy exercise in self destruction.


RT @NicholasTyrone: Some Brexiters have got in touch to tell me I’m making stuff up when I say that Vote Leave campaigned on the idea that Brexit would mean shorter wait times for medical tr…

RT @peteneville65: For those who don't fully understand what is up with the NHS, here is a thread for you that might help.

I'm a consultant physician working as a doctor in the NHS in Yorkshire and Wales for 32 years now. I have experienced the NHS at its best (2008) and its worst (2022).

@CroatiaInEU @VladaRH @mup_rh @HNB_HR @EuroHr Well done Croatia! A positive move.
Living in Zagreb 1997-1999 that felt like a distant dream and yet here we are… amazing.

Amazing to see Croatia now part of EU Schengen area. Cestitke! 🎉🎉to them - a country that wants to embrace not shun their neighbours.
The hundreds of hours I spent in queues at the Croatian border when I lived there… no more! 🇭🇷🇪🇺
RT @krasnec: History on the move 🇭🇷🇪🇺 Croatia woke up this morning as a member of both euro zone and Schengen borderless area

@criminographer Wishing you and your family a far better 2023. Our family lost an Alexander shortly after his birth. The hardest of losses. May you continue to honour him in all you do.

RT @Feargal_Sharkey: "Sewage was dumped every four minutes during Therese Coffey’s three years as water minister."

Yep you read that right.

"presided over 321-years worth of sewage discharge in three years".

@Alishacmlewis Wow - well done Alisha! Don’t know how you find the time to fit it all in.

I think we might all feel more hope and pride once we’ve got rid of this government and elected people who actually care about those who are struggling, care about social justice and care about the environment.
This man is so disconnected from reality it’s painful.
RT @RishiSunak: I’m so proud of this country and I can’t wait for 2023.

Happy New Year! 🇬🇧

@AnthonyMangnal1 @sueyship @kevin_j_foster @Torbay_Council I believe Rishi Sunak said just a few weeks ago that your party would 'respect neighbourhood plans and protect green spaces'.
Interesting that neither of those things are true in the case of Inglewood.
Nice words, but in reality they mean nothing.

@AnthonyMangnal1 @sueyship @kevin_j_foster @Torbay_Council But how much pressure did you actually put on your Secretary of State not to give the green light for this development?
You know as well as anyone else that once the developer got the go-ahead Torbay Council had no choice but to allow the road closure.
Developers win, every time
