#gherkins #GherkinGate #LivingWage #Budget2026 #NationalInsurance @JohnHealey_MP What is a charge, and what is a tax? Ask John Healy 😡 One economy to bind us all... #SocialCare #Disability
Dear @YvetteCooperMP & @annagelderd I wonder whether @JohnHealey_MP sees #SocialCare weekly charges as three taxes lumped together, and called a "charge"? A bank balance tax 2nd #IncomeTax 2nd #InheritanceTax What do you think? Yes? No?

PS. Don't forget the PIP Mobility component. If 100% of it is not used each week, it increases one's bank balance, so is taken into account during #SocialCare Tax assessments. I save for the next £10k plus powered wheelchair. Do you see the problem @JohnHealey_MP? Its a joke

I would like to know why @plymouthcc have put speed humps on PAVEMENTS (Royal Parade) near Savers 😡 Even if I wasn't a wheelchair user, I would be really baffled by that. If I lived there, I'd have suspended or reduced my Council Tax payments by now. #Plymouth #accessibility
Went to Oxford Street to try out the pedestrian zone. Oh dear. Accessibility? Nah yet again.

Are you considering buying a #Sony UK product? I have a £250 voucher code with an expiry date of 19 Nov 2026 It is not for £200 as previously stated. I am willing to sell it for £235 via a payment link. I'm 100% genuine and would never con anybody. 100% genuine offer. Sarah
Dear @Bose Please could you read my below tweets and tell me whether this would solve my problem with #Alexa volume control: amzn.eu/d/088J3HnQ The frustrating thing is that I was kindly given a £200 @SonyUK voucher, but they do not have any #Alexa enabled speakers 😥

Dear @AmazonAlexa & @AmazonUK Please please, will you produce a new generation "topple free" Echo Dot which has full #accessible volume control, and an optional battery? I am very disappointed with my #EchoShow8, and miss my 3rd gen #EchoDot very much 😩 As somebody who 1/4

PS. Bose UK I have just seen the top of the 500 Home Speaker in a video. Those controls / buttons would be great on a smaller (in depth) speaker that would not tip. What is the verbal volume control like on that device? Can it be controlled via a Bose app with a + and -?

use it to play @YouTube content as it isn't possible to do so via the #alexa app. I have cerebral palsy and can't use a vertical touch screen. Surely it should also be possible to dictate, and have the text sent to the #Alexa app? That would make a huge difference to many 3/4

disabled people. I am so annoyed at the decline in features / accessibility, and volume control, I would not be offended by a separate "#accessible Alexa". You would probably find a lot of non disabled people buying it too. Progression, not regression hey? Sarah 4/4

What benefits to the British people does @andyburnham think open borders will bring? #OpenBorders #SayNoToEU #Brexit

I am really missing @mrmarkdolan's Friday to Sunday breakfast programme on @TalkTV now...

The @AmazonAlexa Android app has a + and - control for bass, mid range, and treble, but strangely, not for volume... Why would any software developer think that was a really good idea? Having a disability affecting my arm control, this is a so frustrating. #smartspeaker? Not.

I should also add that when listening to a radio station, the verbal volume difference between 14% and 16% is ridiculously vast, given the possible range of 100% For listening in bed, it is infuriating. I am not talking about the differences between one or more radio stations.

Since @TalkTV sacked @Iromg, and @mrmarkdolan left, most of their weekday morning programmes are unbearable. Weekends: broadcasting stops at 13:00, sometimes 12:00 Please @newscorp and @NewsUK - get your act together before you loose advertisers and more audience. Never.. 1/2

has a channel such as @TalkTV been so important to #British #democracy, and yet, @NewsUK appear not to understand this fact. How very sad. Sarah 2/2

It is now Friday morning, and there will be no respite from @jkyleofficial, so yet again, I won't be listening to @TalkTV this morning. Come on @NewsUK and @newscorp. You sack @Iromg then expect to keep your audience. Please - hire some more presenters.

Its Friday morning and I just can't listen to @TalkTV... 😞 Please @mrmarkdolan, ask for your old job back 🙏 Please...
