Hi @HMRCgovuk @BarclaysUKHelp just to be super clear - if YOUR systems go down on the day tax is due that is not a penalty that taxpayers will pick up. @MartinSLewis expecting you to have a view on this shambles on 31 January of all days

Apparently 'talent scarcity' was a hot topic at a recent independent agency network conference. I suspect if these people checked Linkedin they'd find loads of awesome talent who'd love to work for them. However most of these people are over 40. #ageism

We've lost quite a few followers for being critical of Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak breaking the law. But NHS staff have never needed support more, so please follow and RT if you remain right behind us.

Whilst MPs get free parking, NHS staff have to pay to arrive at their place of work where they save countless lives. If you believe this needs to change, please RT 💙

#TheSplit #thesplit Series 3 not quite as amazing as Series 2 but still emotionally supercharged with incredible writing, acting, directing, pacing and OMG the music. The BBC at its very best.

The government has announced that free parking for NHS staff will end after the pandemic. 😫 RT if you think that all NHS staff should be entitled to free parking at their place of work! ❤️

It took you people till now to realise #WillSmith is a massive twat. Where have you been? In other news, Brexit was a bad idea. #WillAndChris #WillSmithAssault #willsmithchrisrock
Also out today: Brexit was a bad idea
I would say anyone under 45. A succession of jilted generations - and it’s only heading one way ⬇️
Replying to @NewStatesman
And now if we’re very lucky maybe we won’t have war in Europe but quite possibly we will. Anyone under 35 has never known the good times.

I’m no anti vaxxer but one thing has been bugging me for a long time. Why has China never been investigated for its role in #COVID19 Like #Wuhan just went back to normal and the rest of the world is still reeling two years later and there are no repercussions? #coronavirus #covid
