How is this man at the heart of the Netanyahu scandal still in place censoring BBC Middle East coverage? BBC faces questions over board member's links to scandal. Robbie Gibb, who sits on BBC editorial standards committee, published fabricated articles middleeasteye.net/news/bbc-f…

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

The people of York have raised nearly £100,000 to save Severus Hill, a designated wildlife sanctuary in the heart of the city, from development. Such a fabulous expression from the community. You can still donate. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/severush…

Great to see Lowther Terrace gates open again @LNER @CityofYork but the signage is very confusing. Pedestrian signs (& barriers) to Queen St, but what about the station itself? And no signs for cyclists? Luckily, it's just for the w/e!

The ministerial code says all announcements of new policy should be made to parliament first. Parliament is sitting today. Why is Sunak making his announcement on sick notes outside parliament? He’s breaking his own ministerial code.

At the York Station update just now they said that the Lowther Terrace gates will be open from the 19th and will remain open. May need to be closed when major building works take place - which is fair enough! @sarahopie @Kallum_Of_York

Getting to York Station via Lowther Terrace gates is recommended during works: "...cycle via Blossom Street, Holgate Road and Lowther Terrace before cycling through the station car park and the ramp on Platform 1". york.gov.uk/major-developmen… Can u confirm @LNER ? cc @YorkCycle

I love travelling by train, but that journey (Bristol Parkway to York) was one of the worst ever @CrossCountryUK for extreme overcrowding! – at York, England

Hey @YorkshireWater I have reported 2 different leaks in my neighbourhood. Neither have appeared on your "problems in you area" map. I have reported one of the leaks numerous times over many months. Please explain the lack of action. – at York, England

The Swiss achieve a high transit mode share in *all parts* of the the country by following a few key planning principles. They plan a nation-wide pulsed “clock face” integrated timetable for the core rail network - and all other regional local connections are planned around that.

So @TalkTalk 's poor customer service reached a new low for me today. Due to their incompetence I will be without any internet from 29th May to... well, we don't know. Hopefully only a few days, but could be weeks. Inexcusable.
