Parliament's official Tweet

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/armistice-day-parliaments-official-twitter-account-apologises-for-breaking-two-minute-silence-9854137.html


"parliament's official Twitter account has apologised after it sent out a tweet during the two-minute silence held this morning to mark Armistice Day.
Thousands gathered around the Tower of London to hear the bugler sound the Last Post just before the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.
At the same time, people across the UK fell silent at 11am to remember the servicemen and women killed in the First World War.
The silence was also observed by many on social media - but not by the official Twitter account for Parliament, which published a scheduled tweet about the ongoing investigation into historic child abuse at 11.01am."

this resulted in many people tweet back saying that for 2 minutes they could just wait but had to tweet. people also very that this was disrespectful and had #TheyShouldKnowBetter this suggest the fury and outrage that people had. the official account then apologized however the public had been tweeting back expressing what this had meant and done to them.
