Hi @IKEAUKSupport last week one of your delivery men swore at me during a delivery and damaged the item being delivered. I’ve just been told by your resolution generalist that all that can be offered is a £20 gift voucher. The delivery cost me £40.

Does IKEA think that I should have paid £20 to be sworn at in my own home by an aggressive man? Your response would suggest so.

Breaking my Twitter exodus to ask why @TomMcTague paints George Cottrel as a lost soul who Farage gave a chance to have a “life of glamour and power and importance that they may not have otherwise had” when he’s from an exceptionally rich family and grew up on a private island

Perhaps he does surround himself with these types of young men but Cottrel is absolutely not one of them

I’m not going to be posting on here anymore. I can’t in good conscience continue to use and support a platform owned and operated by a man whose views and actions go against everything I stand for. Reg, Margo Leadbetter and I will be on Bluesky so catch us over there ❤️
