Can you imagine being a tory mp trying to blame a government in power for 18 months for the youth unemployment with a straight face. 14 years those assholes destroyed everything. Everything. Then blame everyone else. There are very few entry level jobs for young people thanks to prior tory policies.

The UK is fine. The real threat is from the right whingers and their misogyny and fascism. Immigrants prop up our NHS, provide to the tax system and are generally pretty nice. But I am bias as an immigrant myself.

Recordings received. Not once, but twice in the call i was asked to call at 8am. You know the 8am rush that was supposed to be non-existent. Yeah that one. She checked for an apt but not for the GP just the pharmacist. Trying to get a straight response from these people is ridiculous.

Having to ask for the phone call recording as they're claiming I was offered an appointment, I wasn’t, and that while the appointment was routine the rebooking wasn't. 🙄 I really hate these people but there's no other surgery I can move to.

Is there anything worse than dealing with a GP surgeries admin staff. It's like they're trained to be obstructive and unhelpful.

The NHS should never have allowed private GP surgeries to operate under their name. Our GP surgery owns two surgeries. So the 3, yes only 3, owner GPs work across two surgeries. No wonder getting an appointment is impossible.

Great a junction of plastic drain pipes is leaking behind the sink cupboard. Hoping we dont need to completely disassemble the units to fix. Mate going to look at tonight, Plumber tomorrow pm and worse case scenario our builder Tuesday pm. Which is cutting it close.

Still dealing with leaks in the drain pipes in the kitchen. Hoping its not behind the units or its going to be a much more complex problem of removing the units, fixing the plumbing and then putting them back. Shit.

Why even bother passing the Employment Bill if you're not banning fire & rehire, zero hours contracts and not implemented day one protection from unfair dismissal. Fucking useless.

I don't think I'll be having thanksgiving next year. I've done everything today, while working, and I'm kind of sick of it all. Only an offer to boil potatoes and make his disgusting bread pudding, so fuck it next year.

Everything I've bought for my husband has been an cock up. Evri broke a parcel then lied about it. Zone 3 forgets to put the gift card in the envelope. Not going well.

Absolutely fuming. Ordered a gift card from a company and guess what, gift card not in the little envelope. This ought to be fun to try and get a replacement for. Why can't companies just check their shit before they send it. Waste of money and time for me.

Gibb needs to go. Of course a right whinger refuses to resign. They like to be forced out and cry about it. Boycott the BBC until he goes I guess.
"I've been the victim of that weaponisation" of claims of bias in the BBC, claims board member Robbie Gibb at the DCMS committee.
"I've not done anything wrong. I'm a passionate defender of the BBC, in its values, the licence fee." He says he has no intention of resigning.

This. I haven't had Starbucks in over a year. Use smaller British cafes. If they won't pay UK tax we should not be supporting them.
But if the government start taxing the likes of Starbucks & they leave, Are we seriously saying that Britain will stop drinking coffee?
£3 billion in UK sales & they don't want to pay tax?
It's time to get of the merry-go-round & use our smaller, local retailers who will pay their taxes.
