        @BBCBreaking my hubby works at co-op but it's effectively part of lloyds taking over the co-op. The new CEO is from Lloyds for a start!

        @BBCBreaking Is it time for #co-ops/social enterprises to be given a role in utilities and transport to provide a real alternative model?

        @BBCBreaking selling debt is not the answer but it's a mistake everyone should learn it will never fix but prolong more irresponsibility
