My UK civil service pension is 7 months late. Capita told Keir Starmers office that my pension would be paid at the end of April, it didn't happen. Many people, inc me, still can't create an account on the Capita platform. Letters to me are sent from Sweden, not the UK, which takes over 1 month to reach me. A UK government outsourcing contract by the Conservatives but failures to monitor the contract by Labour. Just a bloody gong show. #UKpolhttps://www.civilserviceworld.com/professions/article/angela-macdonald-capita-is-now-ready-to-pay-new-retirees-pensions-on-time

For Asian Movie Night last night we saw 100 Yards [ 门前宝地]. Another DVD to add to our Andy On collection but can't say we enjoyed it. It did receive two award nominations though. Managed to watch it without dropping off, so there is that. #cdramahttps://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1122824

@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online My husband has been a Colorado voter for many years. He voted Hickenlooper out. Hickenlooper never wanted that job in the first place, had to be persuaded to go for it and has been a limp rag ever since. Time for someone with a bit of energy. Even on the home page of Hickenlooper’s website it’s all “me, me, me, me”. Diana DeGette is also in trouble, been anti-abortion for 30 years but has really done nothing with the same excuses. Bennett is also a limp rag too.

@Nonilex@masto.ai ICE are scrapping the bottom of the barrel to meet their recruiting needs. This will continue. One day the law will catch up with them assuming Trump doesn't create a national emergency around election integrity to stay in power until he dies.

@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online This is so disappointing. When I ran an LGBTQ immigration non-profit in Denver, Hickenlooper was the only legislator in Colorado that would welcome a meeting with me. I wonder what happened. Maybe he has always been this way but I just failed to see it.

@jetton@mastodon.online In the UK: 382,000 homeless people. 1.5 million unoccupied dwellings. Seems the US is not the only country who can't get their act together.

@Lazarou@mastodon.social When I started in the UK civil service there was so much homophobia and racism, I'm determined to get every penny I deserve having gone through that.

@DaveMasonDotMe Me: A great car is defined by the miracle of heated seats.

@DaveMasonDotMe They have ventilated seats? i never knew.

@patrickworld@mastodon.online Hopefully you will still be able to use someone there as a reference and have a pension from them. Companies will do whatever they think they can get away with these days and have to look after number 1.
