On Thursday eve I booked rtn @Ryanair flights London/Malaga for a family holiday. It appears that my surname was changed by Ryanair on the booking from "Reed" to "Redgrave". Now you won't let me change it back without a £230 charge...1/5

The responses from your customer services are very odd- I'm told they're humans but its like they are all Chatbots, yet working from different manuals. And then you get cut dead. When I call I'm told I've called before and get cut off. The 48hrs is fast approaching. PLEASE HELP.

Another excellent @IPPR report on early education and childcare offering the metrics evidencing the challenge facing this government in turning the present ECEC system into a more equitable one.
Over two-thirds of parents of young children who work in professions like lawyers, doctors and architects use formal childcare, compared to less than half of parents with occupations such as cleaners, care workers and hairdressers. Find out more: ippr.org/articles/the-childc…
