It's beyond me why/how most airlines don't allow you to save passenger information in your account, and require giant forms to be filled every time. Like, it's not that my birth date is gonna change anytime soon.

Our new report: local political parties are renting out office space to MPs — who claim the cost on expenses. But in most cases, they pay no tax on that income — or on rent from local businesses. We reviewed 630 sets of accounts. What we found is a systemic failure. 🧵

I need an album "Fires in New Providence Wharf" at this point. Ps: can't we just ban any sort of smoking inside and outside blocks of flats?

Liz Truss tried her best but, as with so many things, if you want something done properly, you need to get the Americans to do it.

Politics of the last few weeks are just unreal. - Trump: China is imposing 67% tariffs on us, we’ll respond with 34% - China: fine, we’ll do 34% too - Trump: if you do 34% we do 84% How does this even make sense? How do people not realise the 67% was totally made up?

NEW 🧵 A quick thread of charts showing how Trump’s economic agenda is going so far: 1) US consumers are reacting very very negatively. These are the worst ratings for any US government’s economic policy since records began.

Today we’re onboard the special SAS Destination Unknown flight. As the name suggests, no one on board knows where we’re headed. Be sure to leave your guesses as we get going!

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

The plot thickens - LHR did have redundant power (3N), just for some reason didn’t use it. Curious to see what comes out of the inquiry.

The surprising thing about the North Hyde / Hayes substation fire is that London Heathrow's operations immediately decided to close the airport for 24 hours, well before the recovery time was known. Does anyone know why? Any guess? Why pushing out recovery so far so early?

I can’t sleep so I’m gonna drop two unrequested, unpopular opinions here. 1 - Europe crying at US for dropping support and alliance is simply laughable. There’s no obligation for anyone to come change our diapers. Time to stop regulating ourselves into oblivion and start building, maybe? 1/2

Have to admit - Monzo pushed me away through bad customer service, but are pulling me back through technology. A while ago they introduced 2PR for large payments, and now just reminded me they have a complete failover for when their (redundant) infra is KO: monzo.com/blog/tolerat... ...just wow!
