Astonishing scenes from the @BBCNews meeting with Tim Davie and Samir Shah. * Chairman sait it was disrespectful to suggest board wasn’t upholding BBC values, causing widespread fury * Explained the week long delay in commenting on @Telegraph leak was because of need to check facts. Telling that to a newsroom where they have to meet hourly deadlines again didn’t land well. * Interview with Davie and Shah not conducted by any of the BBC presenters, but by head of internal comms * Newsroom has been told it can use clips on bulletins of Davie praising staff, but none of Samir Shah * am told mood is sulfurous and mutinous

Don’t worry about your A-level exam results, in 20 years’ time you’ll be more worried about: 1. Not being able to move your neck for half a day because you slept a bit funny 2. Hoping any event you attend has adequate seating 3. Staying in for parcels with a delivery window of “between 6am and 10pm” (and they might not come at all) 4. Something silly and embarrassing that you said 20 years ago 5. All your teaspoons going missing. Where do they go?! 6. Trying to kick a ball back to a random young person in the park without falling over 7. Finding it exciting to look at sheds at the garden centre 8. Searching for the perfect hoover 9. Hairs: grey ones/ones now growing from your ears/receding ones 10. The fact you can’t bend down without making a loud groaning noise

Yep
Suddenly remembering every bad thing you've ever done when someone says “can you come here a minute, please?”

Add to that the windrush scandal and I'm hooked.
After the effect of 'Mr Bates vs the Post Office', let’s hope Toby Jones is also working on new TV dramas about water pollution, climate change, covid, PPE contracts, the refugee crisis, the cost of living, energy prices, and the NHS

Just a little reminder that Government have spent more money on the failed Rwanda scheme than it did on domestic abuse refuges for women and children.

This is so dangerous and irresponsible. When parliamentarians - law makers, for goodness sake - say ‘ignore the law’ and that judges are ‘enemies of the people’ you are on a very slippery slope. We saw how that ended in the US on Jan 6
The deputy chairman of Britain's governing Conservative Party @LeeAndersonMP_ has called for the government to "ignore the law" and deport asylum seekers the same day they arrive.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with one purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

Has anyone done a case study on the Lotus Biscoff success story because I feel like they’ve gone from weird little meeting/hotel tea tray biscuits to being absolutely everywhere and in absolutely everything and I’d like to know how?

New research from @Swim_England has shown the huge #ValueOfSwimming to the nation at more than £2.4billion each year. But we know our pools have the potential to do so much more. That’s why we’re saying - don’t put a cap on swimming!

why does this year's Labour conference brochure look like a 1998 solo album of songs about why he left the band

Absolutely with you
Proud to stand with friends and colleagues to welcome our new residents to Portland today. We don’t agree with the barge, but we stand together in compassion. 🏝️ 💕 #RefugeesWelcome #Compassion

I rarely find myself agreeing with George Monbiot, but, y'know, this: CCS is not far off nuclear fusion in the "it's coming, and it'll save us all!" stakes
Carbon capture and storage has been promised for 20 years. It has never materialised and never will. Its sole purpose is to create the impression that oil and gas drilling is compatible with a habitable planet. Any politician promoting it is working for the fossil fuel industry.

Contrarians are deliberately conflating ULEZ with Climate Change in order to make them both seem unpopular and to undermine #netzero. As we approach an election. The tactic is cynical, but only to be expected given the history of these people.
Almost all the media (including the normally excellent @Channel4News) reporting ulez as a climate issue. It’s nothing of the sort. It addresses air pollution in London, and thus children’s health. Like a foreign report mistaking France for Germany!
