Hey @Tesco are you now doing facial recognition on everyone coming into your stores without telling them? Coz there’s suddenly a camera and screen at the entrance of Tesco Cowbridge that looks like it…
Dear @British_Airways it would be helpful if you told people at @Gatwick_Airport that you can’t check in for @vueling flights at BA desks (even though they have BA flight numbers and the booking is in the app) so that you don’t waste more hours of your life…

For the second time in two weeks @easyJet , you’ve cancelled my flight at short notice and with no reasonable alternative. So I’ve had to spend the thick end of a thousand quid working around your chaos. Compensation?

.@FIPPWorld #Lisbon: "Print won't die, just as TV never killed radio, but it will change...you must reduce frequency, have higher production values, higher cover prices (€12-15) and each issue must be a distinct event" @jhewes – at Lisbon, Portugal

Strong message from @jhewes at @FIPPWorld Insider #Lisbon: "If you miss the opportunities of the future, you will have no business. Publishers must diversify into MULTIPLE revenue streams. NB multiple, not simply swapping one revenue stream for another." – at Lisbon, Portugal

Most drivers I know all said privately and publicly, this track looks sketch, so many badly angled concrete walls, this shit is exactly what we were afraid of. There’s so many other good tracks in the world and #F1 races here? Pretty sad, just hoping Mick is okay.

This is an important win for an important piece of journalism - am mid way through the book and it’s astonishing. Bravo @tomburgis
It is more vital than ever to stop oligarchs using law firms to silence the press. So I’m delighted to say that the latest attempt to do that against me and the @FinancialTimes just failed 1/
