Don't boycott post offices over IT scandal and a dying man pleads 'be kind online'
Description
Social media has been dominated by the Post Office Horizon IT scandal.
Some have vowed to boycott their local branches in protest, but subpostmaster and TikTok star Juliet Thomas Davies, of Anne Street branch in Llanelli, went viral after asking people to support their local post office now more than ever.
We were also moved by the Twitter plea from John Woodward, who's got 6 months left to live after being diagnosed with brain cancer, asking fellow users to "be more supportive of each other instead of hurling abuse which passes as debate".
Also on the show is the hilarious rant over Quality Street changing their wrappers, the drunk mum asking for a lift home from her kids, a 65-year-old dartboard and the man who foolishly thought he could beat a 400m athlete.
