Hey, UK people: anyone have contact with either the UK bank Onefamily, or a UK financial ombudsman?

Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

Have fond memories of reading my Grandma's copy of Kane and Abel. I felt very grown up and it's a good story.

I think it’s actually really important for the Greens to lose that by-election now, cause if they win it will be used to brush away all objections to what they did today

Unless you're a massive far right racist, most sensible people would agree that Burnham is the UK's last chance, whether you vote Tory, Labour, Green, whoever. If he fails, the fascist cunts are in.

"Any Green member who participated in Jewish communal life could be denounced as a racist – as indeed could members of Polanski’s family. Needless to add, the Greens have no plans to denounce Muslims who attend mosques controlled by reactionary imams, or Christians who attend homophobic churches"

This is the attitude of every colleague who can't be arsed to plan and doesn't want bother with details. Utter laziness and fear of complexity. And makes her totally unsuitable for any big job, where you're supposed to be able to lead on delivering complex change, not just react to stuff.

I've paid tax for most of my life, partly so there's some sort of safety net there when I need it. If I need benefits I'll damn well feel entitled to them, because I've paid for them already.

Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics. A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.
