When Chloe Macintosh, Brent Hoberman, Julien Callède and Ning Li launched Made.com from their East London office in 2010, the co-founders had their sights set on becoming 'Generation Rents go-to homeware brand.

Simon Deakin, a professor of Law at the University of Cambridge, Gadgetinku said if 100 or more employees are sacked within a period of 90 days, the Business Secretary must be notified 45 days before the first dismissal.

While many staff appear to have already learned they no longer have a job when they woke up to find their computers had been wiped, workers received an email from Twitter's HR department on Saturday which said they had until 9am on Tuesday to nominate any current employee.

Twitter employee Simon Balmain told Sky News: 'Late last night we all received an email saying there is going to be a large reduction in headcount and the email stated that if we would be laid off, it would go to our personal email and if not to our work email.

Apparently (according to the Waste and Resources Action Programme, or WRAP), the clothes in the average UK wardrobe are worth around £4,000 and yet a third of the items have not been worn for at least a year.

So at least once a year I have a huge cull of all the clutter. Then I sort it into piles of things I want to keep and things I want to sell. The fun is seeing how much money I can make out of all the cast-offs.

He was still wearing his typical military-style getup, including an army field jacket with an Afghan flag patch, backpack, aviator shades and a keffiyeh scarf - a nod to Meek's celebrated dispatches from the frontline in Afghanistan.

Nick concluded: 'With TV shows like The Repair Shop and TikTok tutorials showing us how to upcycle furniture, shoppers are now aware that furniture is something that can increase value in future - unlike the products Made sell.'

Still, the dangers of such crackdowns were illustrated in the closing days of the 2020 election, when Twitter and Facebook limited or banned sharing of the New York Post's reports on Hunter Biden's international business dealings.

Nick continued: 'The tides have changed in home furnishings and with competition so fierce from John Lewis and their successful every day range and also the frustration of having to wait weeks if not month for delivery the glow has come off the brand and it is losing money fast.

'Brands like Loaf.com and Sleep8 are bucking the trend and opening up more stores in destination shopping centres like Westfield in London and Bluewater as more and more people want to feel their furniture which is something Made.com hasn't allowed its customers to do.

Around the same time Meek suddenly ended his involvement in a book he was co-writing with Lt. Col. Scott Mann, a retired Green Beret, entitled Operation Pineapple Express: The Incredible Story of a Group of Americans Who Undertook One Last Mission and Honored a Promise in Afghanistan.

While many staff appear to have already learned they no longer have a job when they woke up to find their computers had been wiped, workers received an email from Twitter's HR department on Saturday which said they had until 9am on Tuesday to nominate any current employee.

'I hope that you will agree with me that the Government must make it clear to Twitter's new owners a digital P&O would not be acceptable and that no-one is above the law in the UK, including big tech barons.'

Meek previewed the book on social media and the first sentence on its jacket read: 'In April, ABC News correspondent James Gordon Meek got an urgent call from a Special Forces operator serving overseas.'

Mr Clancy described the situation as the 'digital P&O' - in reference to the shipping company, which was widely condemned after it sacked nearly 800 crew members without notice in March and replaced them with cheaper agency workers.

As a digital-first business, brand expert Nick Ede says Made.com was lightyears ahead of its competition with its swish website, easy-to-use app and their virtual interior design service - which gave customers free advice for creating their dream living space.

'When it first launched it was a hit because there was nothing quite like it and the consumer felt like they were their own interior designer with clever ways of visualising the product in your homes using quick and easy VR tools.'

He explained: 'Made very quickly became a very innovative place to purchase your furniture and homewares, with its nimble approach to providing customers with quality items at good prices it captured the zeitgeist of living in hotel-style homes that were Instagramable and gave people boasting power. 

Those hot-button topics include 'the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic and the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, racial justice, US withdrawal from Afghanistan, and the nature of US support to Ukraine,' according to a draft copy of DHS's Quadrennial Homeland Security Review cited in the report.

'While the department cannot speak to any specific case or Gadgetinku activity, the Department strictly adheres to the Attorney General's July 2021 memorandum prohibiting the use of compulsory process with regards to members of the news media acting within the scope of newsgathering activities,' she told the Daily Beast.
