Royal Mail is so broken. I needed to send a heavy parcel to Canada. I looked online how much that would be and Royal Mail told me it would be £28 which is reasonable. Because I had to drop it off at a post office anyway I decided to just buy postage when I drop iff my package. The price they quoted? £69! The lady at the counter told me that they don't off the "online price" at the post office. Absolutely bonkers and a sign of how broken our privatised mail is.

Robert Jenrick complaining that the country is broken is a bit like Fred West complaining his patio isn't level.

It’s 7.30 in the evening. It’s cold. I’m waiting for a train at Bingley station. I’m waiting on the platform, in the cold because the waiting room is locked. Why? Is it beyond the wit of the railways to safely open a waiting room at night? #railway #BrokenBritain

Remember that satirical episode in 'Yes Minister' when Hacker visits an NHS Hospital fully operational apart from the absence of, er, any patients.

How we all laughed...

Nowadays, truth is stranger than fiction.
