Well, the final whistle on Chelsea FC's financial cheating under Abramovich seems to have blown. The Guardian and our reporting partners practically put it on a plate for the FA and Premier League. They blazed it over the bar. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Chelsea fined £10m and given suspended transfer ban by FA over agent breaches

The club escaped a suspended six-point deduction for the infringements after appealing against the original punishment.

The erstwhile Ofwat identified #informationinequality as a constraint on people understanding how to get access to the Priority Services Register - for a long time the only public body I could find using that term. https://youtu.be/iHK1LWyFMGo?is=tlq-cmh006tfZKOE

Ofwat is starting a conversation with the water sector and beyond to #ListenCareShare. We want to understand the challenges and experiences that water customers are facing, as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, so we can all provide help and support in the right way, at the right time. To begin with we will Listen Care Share around three themes: financial vulnerability; mental wellbeing; information inequality. Research commissioned by Ofwat as part of #ListenCareShare, a piece of work to understand customers' experiences duringCovid-19, found that information about the types of customer support available is not reaching those who need it. Only 15% of customers are aware that financial sunnort for…

Unsurprisingly, a number of people asked me to look at this story doing the rounds on all the right-wing media 🧐 So let's take a look at who is exempt from the ban and why, and when this "two-tier" situation came about (spoiler - it's nothing new!) 1/20

Media snippets discuss exemptions for benefits claimants from a hosepipe ban, with a "debunked" stamp overlay.

Amazed that they haven’t absolutely wallpapered their profiles with this news, but @jim.londoncentric.media @pollysmythe.bsky.social and @londoncentric.media won an Orwell Prize (and were runners-up in another category) last night) - big congrats! www.orwellfoundation.com/homelessness...

I picked a hell of a day to misunderstand how BT would handle my switch from old-school broadband to full fibre (by just switching it off before the new connection is in place)… Looks like I will be working from a steamy local cafe instead…
