  5. @wood5y It's bureaucracy. The golden rule of Bureaucrats is: they need to justify their paycheck, whilst doing as little work as possible.

    It's much easier for them to deal with a threat of grannies holding up signs than it is for them to deal with a threat like ISIS. They justify their paycheck either way. So they always choose to deal with the easiest job. As a result, the grannies are the job that gets dealt with.

    Bureaucracy is why we have #brokenbritain

    Robert Jenrick complaining that the country is broken is a bit like Fred West complaining his patio isn't level.

  7. Saw partner had bought a new tub of Sudocrem for his eczema…and it had a yellow security protection sticker on it.

    The main purpose I know of Sudocrem is to treat nappy rash.

    We now have mothers so poor and desperate to treat their babies sore bottoms they are stealing basic treatments.

    This is #BrokenBritain.

    What are politicians of any stripe doing to help babies who are in pain through no fault of their own and risk having their mother’s criminalised.

  8. My partner is currently fighting the crazy world of AQA GCSE past papers for English Language for her daughter. All the papers are incomplete for ‘copyright reasons’ — the passages and pictures on which the questions are based are mostly missing.
    How is this farce acceptable?

  9. Rachel Reeves swears she’s not bringing back austerity while… checks notes …cutting benefits, squeezing public services, and refusing to tax record corporate profits. Labour’s just the Tories in a new suit. #ToryLite #BrokenBritain

  10. Not only did Aldi (still) not have any frickles, but today they didn't have hash brown fries either.

  11. This’ll be as welcome as a turd in a babbling brook on a sunny summer’s day.

  12. Welcome to the pathetic mess of Brexit Britain. Where appliance have to be shipped with two identical power rating stickers to placate the nationalistic morons who have spray everything with union flags.

    I hate everything this country has become.

  13. A 100 gram bar of #Cadbury’s #Bourneville #chocolate has increased in price from £1 to £1.50 in a short period of time. ☹️

  16. ITVX: #Greens [#England & #Wales] vow tax hike on richest in #manifesto to 'mend #BrokenBritain' | ITV News -

    "At the heart of this would be a #tax on the very richest, the #top1% of people requiring them to pay a bit more into the pot."

  17. This hospital wasn’t deemed bad enough to be one of the 40 to be supposedly rebuilt under Johnson…it’s now had two ceilings collapse in critical care and radiology units. Patients weren’t hurt only due to swift actions of staff.

    How horrific do things have to be in this country for people to say they deserve and need better?

  18. Gotta love Charles. Barred by snivelling UK government last year from attending COP27, he throws a big pre-COP party for environmentalists. This year, after pathetic government orchestrates distracting row with #greece over #parthenonmarbles marbles, he addresses #cop28 with a Greek flag tie. #brokenbritain #tories #environment

  19. This is now the fourth week of next door having their patio repaved, and the builders are using every conceivable power tool under the sun to carry out the infernal work. I work from home exclusively, and the OH hybrid.

    The neighbours never even notified us what was going to happen. Bastards.

    That's broken Britain for you.

    What's Rishi Sunak going to do about it?

    Eh? EH?

    FFS!

  20. RishGPT offers jumble of nonsense on school buildings crisis

    #Sunak is a #capitalist #enabler.
    Completely #incompetent to run a country for the benefit of its people.

    #RAAC #concrete scandal is such a perfect metaphor for #BrokenBritain and the consequences of #austerity and #Tory underinvestment.
    #Scotland needs #independence …fast!

  21. Off to #London today.
    Let's play the game of "is my train going to get me there?"

    (It's already 4 mins delayed 🤦)

  22. I tried to buy some toiletries on line yesterday, had no problems before. This time, lots not available and 'we'll send you an email when the items are in stock' message. Equivalent of empty supermarket shelves.

  27. It's that time of day, the central heating has come on - will it get the lounge above 11 degrees? Will it reach the limit set of 13 degrees before the smart display reaches £10? Do I feel lucky (punk)? Not really - I do feel bored of wearing so many layers though. Top tip though, a jumper dress over the top of other layers and trousers really helps.

    The only reason I miss Twitter is to name and shame and SCREAM at #AvantiWestcoast and #NorthernRail for dispicable incompetence under Tory rule and devastating mismanagement and greed.

    It's 0 degrees right now in the Midlands, and trains are being cancelled and delayed in quick succession. Children are tired & crying, people on their phones frantically trying to re-plan their lives.
