What a wonderful repair! Happy to have inspired it, thank you. It's great to know that the @sugru @Bobux repair blog post from a few years back is still proving useful. #lovedclotheslast
.@TheGoodWardrobe Wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to coat the toes of my well-worn carbon-fibre cycling shoes in @sugru. Obviously a home-made fix, but strong, flexible and will keep the shoes going for at least another year. #savedbysugru thegoodwardrobe.com/make-or-…

Amazon is the biggest online retailer in the world. Jeff Bezos is worth 179.2 billion USD! @amazon can afford to protect it's workers, by ensuring they do not need to work in crowded factories during the lockdown, but they choose not to. #PayYourWorkers #RespectLabourRights

Money laundering and VAT fraud in @boohoo's supply chain. They may be cutting ties with these firms but the problem goes much deeper. When will #Boohoo go transparent and put on record who makes their clothes? Surely now. #BooWho? bbc.co.uk/news/uk-54509461
