It’s strange, I’ve downloaded a e-sim and it’s latched onto the EE network (Vodafone SIM card in phone) and that seems to have been a good fix for now…

My faith in technology improves - thanks to @EE and their e-sim (which ironically I can’t have direct from them because I’m a silly boy but can buy from a third party). @EE now providing mobile data for me while @vodafoneuk gets its act together.

Play for a draw and ultimately you’ll get caught out and lose - a 1 goal thriller was to be expected but still when I die am ganna get the Hibs team to lower me into my grave so they can let me down for one last time

take from today - while politics in this country lurches to the right, the left, who had a great opportunity to build something with leaders, manages to eat itself alive.

There is a need for working class politics BUT there will never be a workers party while we fight our own.

Trains are such an underrated form of public transport!

After 11 of nothing but buses… it’s great to be back on a train heading for Aberdeen!

I have no affiliation to Manchester United whatsoever but I’ve just watched the documentary β€œThe United Way” - Pre and Post 1st Treble was good to hear the different accounts of history from players and staff involved, in particular Eric Cantona.

Campaigners call for more trains to help ease traffic congestion on the north Northumberland coast North East leaders have met with campaigners calling for more trains to stop at some of the region’s most rural railway stations.

How hard is it for people in power to understand when it comes to Railways in England - Build it and they shall come.

Hey #Labour
In the Westminster parliamentary system, an early day motion (EDM) is a motion, expressed as a single sentence, tabled by a member of Parliament, which the Govt (in charge of parliamentary business) has not yet scheduled for debate.
Yet a Labour MP responds ⬇️
