Can you help our colleagues in @sussex_police find #missing Lorenzo, who was last seen in the London Bridge area on Wednesday, 21 October?
xitter.cf/sussex_police/status/2…
Have you seen Lorenzo, 17, reported missing from Burgess Hill?
He was last seen on Wednesday, 21 October, in London Bridge.
He is 5’ 7” with dark curly hair. He was wearing a white T-shirt with a football logo on the front, blue jeans, black shoes and a grey and blue jacket. He is often carrying a large Union Jack around his shoulders.
Lorenzo is vulnerable.
If you see Lorenzo, or know if his whereabouts, please call police on 101, quoting serial 779 of 19/10.

Have you seen this image of an elderly French couple in their underwear being shared online with claims they were stripped and robbed during the recent riots in France?
It’s AI and there are no official reports confirming the attack.

For 10 weeks, we asked five AI chatbots the same questions every day.
None repeated the core misinformation they were tested on, but they reported proposals as law, quoted outdated figures and gave different answers on different days.
Our first report: fullfact.org/ai-benchmark/re…
ALT Millions of people increasingly rely on AI chatbots for timely responses to factual questions. Our findings show the answer comes back in the same confident tone whether it is correct, out of date, or describes something that has not yet happened. That is the real problem here. These models are not necessarily peddling misinformation, but their responses can be incomplete, lack context or be poorly sourced. The bosses of these AI companies say they are happy for others to mark their homework, so we have started doing it for them.
Are we saying that all the years that @SouthwarkLabour was in power, the nuisance of badly parked dockless bikes was not happening?
🤔 Yes, it was happening and dockless bike parking spaces set up by the Council are used by cars & no clear signs to stop it.
Sort your mess out @limebike - currently blocking the entire Tooley Street crossing outside London Bridge station.
Greens/LibDem Coalition running Southwark Council want more of this…🤦🏻♂️
How does he know?
The answer, he lied when he said it.
Watch and be amused!
🚲 Should dockless e-bike firms face tougher rules?
With complaints about abandoned bikes on the rise, operators were questioned today by the London Assembly's transport committee over licensing rules and how the bikes should be managed.
#London #Ebikes #Transport
It's always the same mantra: improvements to public realm.
😬 What they didn't specify for who, in the case, it seems it's not for people wishing to seat and rest.
Is that right, @lb_southwark?

Shell Centre, another developer’s eco gimmick? Does it sound familiar?
The Strata building in E&C. Its wind turbines have rarely been operational due to noise and vibration complaints from residents, and they have been mothballed since 2014

Free guided walks this October... just turn up to these six locations londonist.com/london/history…
Well, if you booked your Christmas flights early, be sure to check your inbox regularly. Our holiday just got more complicated having both return tickets cancelled by @British_Airways
We heard other companies are also cancelling flights for the festive (or not so) season
After being on the phone with @British_Airways Customer Services, all got sorted and rebooked. One reason to continue using this company

As with any fixture, the Sporting Events Act 1985 is in place, which means entering or attempting to enter a ground while intoxicated is strictly prohibited. A Section 35 dispersal order will also be in place, allowing officers to remove anyone causing disorder. It will cover this area.
