Then after half an hour of hoop-jumping "we can't process your cheque right now, please try again later".
How many times could I have walked to the letter box and back in the time wasted so far, and I still haven't succeeded?

OK, so I found I had the app on my phone. It wouldn't run, saying that this might be because it was out of date. The app didn't update itself and Android didn't update it automatically so I had to research how to do a manual update.
Then it says it doesn't recognise my device and I have to re-register from scratch. Which involves typing in all my personal info, no doubt. I wonder whether this is the genuine bank app I'm running or some sort of scam? How to tell?

Somebody has sent me a cheque. But the previous process of sticking it in the post with a bank giro credit form no longer seems to exist, at least with my bank. So WTF am I supposed to do?
Options appear to be
(1) Physically take it into a bank branch. Which is a much longer journey than the letter box, and is an unnecessary covid exposure risk, and isn't open 24/7 like the letter box.
(2) Download some app, spend however long it takes on the security theatre to get it to work, use that. And then lose the password so if I get another cheque in another several years' time I'll have to start all over again.
This process of gratuitously making things more difficult just for the fun of it is called #enshittification, isn't it?

So, in plain English, "Labour weren't going to bribe us as much as the Tories were".
Another failure of #brexshit, which was, amongst other things, supposed to free us from the nanny-state forrin-imposed rules limiting how much we were allowed to bribe companies to set up here rather than somewhere commercially more advantageous.

Just watched TNG S4E21, a warning against resurgent fascism. Is that episode banned in the USA yet?
