Wendy Hall's complacency about AI is staggering and worrying. Seems to be relaxed about 'catastrophies' as long as it doesn't wipe out the human race. @BBCNewsnight #ai

Pellegrini beats @WestHam to Troy Parrott and he gets winner against @realmadrid - revenge is definitely a dish served cold.

Yesterday @BBCr4today gave the Hundred a cringemaking advert with softest interview ever. Today Laura Kenny gets a stream of negativity about the Commonwealth Games. I wonder why? Absolutely no editorial balance at @BBCSport
