Takeaway and delivery restaurants should use proper stainless steel containers and collect them, so they can be used again. If there was a national standard for the containers they could be returned to any restaurant, or even supermarkets, for recycling.

FB recently altered their algorithm to promote conflict by boosting content into people's feeds they'd disagree with.

The unexpected side-effect? My old page, shadow-banned & dormant since 2018, took off.

Tons of trolls + sexists, yes. But also 1000x more eyes on my climate content than before 🤯

Thames Water are overcharging me due to a faulty smart meter.

I noticed it when they charged for 300 litres when I was away.
I flagged this to TW and they said an engineer would come in SIXTY working days.

That's 3 months! They want me to keep paying my bill as normal obvs.

Joke company.

fair enough - in my experience most people take it as a joke not warranting more than a raised eyebrow, but depends who it is obvs.

"Let's be blunt. Let's be brutally honest with ourselves. When you lose an election in a democracy, you deserve to. You don't look at the electorate and ask them, what were you thinking? You look at yourself and ask, what were we doing?"

Keir Starmer's attempt to paint the Greens as extremists yet again reveals his intolerance of political difference. His instincts are illiberal and authoritarian.

Labour MP Andy McDonald: "The party has to come to terms with the reality that factionalism fails the party and more importantly fails the country...

"It is the political approach of the Prime Minister, his former chief of staff, and of Labour Together, which has cost Labour this safe seat".
