Spot lights flickering?

[Robbie1980uk]

In my kitchen, when u plug the microwave and press on on the socket, our kitchen ceiling spot lights flicker once.

Same kitchen lights flicker again when we turn on the dining room light next door.

The electrician can't explain it

Ive seen situations where people have come of a socket to a switched spur fused at 3/5amp then wired the lights from the load side of the spur... how are your kitchen lights switched ??

One plate outside the kitchen with 3 switches (1 for under cabinet lights, 1 for first half kitchen, 1 for 2nd half kitchen). There is another plate at my back door that has 2 switches (1 for outside light, 1 for 2nd half of spot lights)

Current inrush?

if the circuits involved are not connected together in the kitchen my guess would be to look at the consumer unit, loose neutral would be my choice, incoming supply tails
