We are about to be collectively gaslit about the Spring of 2020 and what really happened. It will be implied that your memory was the problem, not the rules. This is a common experience dealt out from governments to both disaster and conflict survivors and responders. A few tips:- I thought I would see a pandemic in my life time. One thing I never thought I would see is 60,000 of the poorest paid but hardest working people in this country being forced out of a job. And on this date. They were the difference in this “war” and we have betrayed them.
- Or you could just process their asylum case and then let them work?We're taking action to stop migrants working illegally as food delivery drivers.
- Sat in bank branch and watched couple after couple aged 80plus disenfranchised and left behind by modern banking. Over and over - computer says no. One man became tearful
- I don’t want any pennies off my national insurance. I want to pay for a country that has all the good stuff
- Still hearing myth from some that the PM had rough time because nobody could have seen the pandemic coming. So I say again, loudly, that it was our most known about and expected national risk and we planned to train any new PM and Health Sec to be ready for it 1st day in office
- Why does @BBCNews persist with the myth that a pandemic was a surprise and that the PM was asked “to make decisions no leader ever expected to have to make” as some sort of excuse - when we literally used to be allowed to train them on this aspect on their first month in office
- The truly inspiring DHL has notified us that the parcel was signed for by a neighbour. They have attached a photo of the neighbour. The photo is of a horse 🙋♀️ 🐴
- In the public inquiry report that will follow the inevitable tragedy at this hellhole, there will be an entire chapter dedicated to these screens and the decision making and financial incentives that led to them being thereEuston is easily the worst station in London. Why is the massive screen just for adverts?? I just want to know what platform my train is going from
