ChatGPT has much to learn from Allister Heath for those who demand an “outraged tone”. Cripes, he’s exhausting. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01/2…

A trial of contactless payments? This has been working in London for a decade or more. Just get on with the roll out in rest of the country! GOV.UK gov.uk/government/new…

The 8.33 #Streatham @tlrailuk sardineometer reading is high this morning thanks to their cancellation of the prior train. I remain ever grateful that the rolling stock at least has overhead racks, meaning backpacks don’t take up valuable human/sardine space. #smallmercies

"At pace" seems to be quite the watchword in government. Not very persuasive because pace is something people want to see and feel, not just be told about. Keir Starmer uses it a lot. And 366 instances of it on gov.uk since July 4. google.com/search?q=%22at…

Hi Thameslink - journey planners are showing no services south from St Pancras to #Streatham - but there are northbound services. What is happening? Surely what goes up must come down… 🔄

Hi ⁦Thameslink⁩. Out of interest why does this train trundle via Tulse Hill, Streatham etc (though not stopping at any of those) rather than just going via London Bridge, Norwood Junction etc, which is significantly faster?

Cameron’s idea of holding a referendum to finish off Farage has turned out to be a stroke of pure genius Truly one of the greatest political operators of our time

So glad the Russell’s Footpath exit to #Streatham Station has been closed to stop fare evasion. Notwithstanding that several stations along the route - namely Elephant & Castle and Herne Hill - have no barrier and most of the time Streatham’s own barriers are left open anyway.

For all those people claiming "the people" are against a closer relationship with the EU...

Please help bring some common sense to #Streatham and sign this. Thank you. 🙏 lambethlibdems.org.uk/values/our-cam…

Happy Brexit referendum anniversary day. It weakened the economy. Reduced investment. Tanked the pound. Damaged the City. Increased red tape. Increased immigration. Decreased the rights of the young. Staffed billions wasted. But hey - Johnson has PM on his CV and his partner in

Hi SWR Help - not a great day for the 13.34 from Wimbledon to Richmond to have air con not working but all windows still locked shut. Can you sort please?

Intriguing to hear so many of the objections to votes at 16 today. Consciously or otherwise, so many are exactly the same arguments which were used about every single extension of the franchise since the 19th century.

If I were to update Reagan’s nine most terrifying words “I’m from the government and I’m here to help” for Britain in 2025 think they’d be “I’m from the government and I can’t help you”. The politics of “government can’t” are a huge driver of current sense of Broken Britain

Is Andrew Neil really using the syntactical abomination “scared for” or is there a sub at Mail Online whose head is about to roll? Surely “I am scared FOR my country.” However, “I am scared ABOUT what is to come.” A worse example still is people being “excited FOR” things. Yuck.
