Sunak just rudely talking over and interrupting Starmer. That's all he's got now. Please @bbc you should be chairing this properly and fairly. Turn his mic off and let the other speak. #BBCDebate

What have you done to the twitter brand @elonmusk ? I mean it really looks a mess in my bookmark toolbar in chrome! And what was wrong with the friendly bird icon. Worst rebrand of the internet era?

Shame the modern coronation can’t use modern English when in prayer or reading scripture. Might help to make this whole thing more relevant. Thy = you for those struggling.

Looks like @github having a bit of a meltdown.

Real shame to see @dpreview to go. Never bought any camera gear without having spent hours reading and watching their stuff.

This is getting ridiculous. Feels like we are living in Russia or somewhere, where those in power have full control of the media? Time to switch over and stop listening to this nonsense.

What @GaryLineker said wasn’t on the BBC until the BBC made it news and put it on the @BBCNews. Maybe it’s time to give the bbc a red card? And this government too? Nobody out here thinks that what he said represents the bbc view. But plenty agree with him.

Shimano will be rubbing their hands…if they can find enough parts!

That will because their new billing system is a random number generator obviously weighted in their favour. I'm try speaking to someone about my account now! But I don't think they employ people anymore - another reason for the grotesque profits. @britishgas
As the first energy bills of the years arrive… British Gas owner Centrica expects a near eightfold increase in its earnings this year as its balance sheet was boosted by soaring wholesale gas prices after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

@BritishGas @BritishGasHelp - can't contact with web chat because their new account system logs you out before they get round to answering due to inactivity! All while I've been on hold forever on the phone which I assume they will never answer either.

Turns out their profits have indeed come from their switch to a new billing system. They don't credit your accounts on new system with what you paid on old one, they just keep it. @BritishGas @BritishGasHelp @guardian please investigate.

Two teams in light shirts, socks and dark shorts. Terrible for anyone with visual impairment or anyone watching a poor quality screen. How was that allowed? @ManCity @SkySports #CarabaoCup

So @BritishGas have just switched to a new web system to access accounts. In the new system you get no access to any data, smart meter readings or anything. Does that mean we won't get any more bills either? Someone messed up here I think.

And I'll try the @BritishGas live chat to get an answer? Number 81 in line! I might be able to work out how many 'agents' there are by how fast that number drops. Right now it looks like there is only 1 maybe 2 !!

Gavin Williamson is the 80th minister to have resigned of been sacked in 2022. If this were a school it would be in special measures. If it were a company it would be in administration. Yet this is our chaotic Conservative Government. Time for change.

To be fair I think I did hear somewhere he was going to donate to charity? But he should be at work, working for his constituents. Whatever he thinks his motives are, he is there for himself not for the public who employ him.
I’ve thought about this overnight and it’s clear that a lot of people are finding it very difficult to watch Matt Hancock on #ImACeleb If he really wants to show viewers the human side of politicians, maybe he could leave the show & donate his £400,000 to the NHS.
If they could … “The way a government treats its refugees is very instructive because it shows you how they would treat the rest of us if they thought they could get away with it.” - Tony Benn

Hopefully that is all the Carry on PM capers over. None of it was funny.
Yes @BBCNews why is Boris on holiday? He may well have a legitimate reason but if they are seriously considering him returning as PM you need to do your job too.
Why isn’t the @BBCNews asking why Johnson is on holiday in the Caribbean or why he hasn’t been in the Commons at work all summer/autumn? If this was a senior Labour figure they would be all over this. #bbcbias @ofcom
