Maybe they meant ‘a level of English’ and not ‘A level’?

Otto English @ottoenglish.bsky.social · 4h

All of this is being put out to placate the right wing press...

In the meantime, it's causing fear & confusion. As I understand it:

● this only applies to some people on skilled visas
● it's not "A level English" it's something called SELT
● much the same requirement exists elsewhere in EU

My new book, 'The Last Hope', is on Amazon at amzn.eu/d/aOoz680 in paperback or Kindle format.

A group of millennials set sail on a yachting vacation in the Mediterranean, to find themselves embroiled in a Russian state-sponsored art heist. An espionage thriller.

Big corporations and 'service-led' organisations hide behind them.

I don't think noreply email addresses should be allowed. It's like some kid ringing the doorbell and running away.

And they get you on auto-renew credit card payments! That shouldn't be allowed. Most people don't even realise they are agreeing to what's called in the payments business 'recurring billing'.

This wasn’t even a special offer—just standard pricing now!

Loyal customers are being ripped off everywhere.

After many years I cancelled my Adobe subscription. I rejoined the same day with the same package for £15 per month less.

This is not unique to Adobe.

Coming to a supermarket near you—cow eggs. Like chicken eggs but bigger and browner.

Jennifer Caroccio Maldonado, PhD @drcaromaldo.blacksky.app · 3d

Wait. What?

A carton of eggs that say farmer's cow. With a big old picture of a cow in it.

Always good to remember while you wait in line—this is something we advocated for non-EU members before Brexit.

Peter Stefanovic @peterstefanovic.bsky.social · 3d

UK travellers should expect "four-hour queues" as new EU border system comes into force. Brexit really is the gift that keeps giving

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
