Mick Lynch is good: clear, articulate, understands his brief, avoids being condescending. Can he be in government please.

[Huw Merriman @HuwMerriman]

While discussing the current rail dispute at the @TransportCttee session earlier today, I asked Mick Lynch who he thought should pay for the wage rises he is demanding: passengers or taxpayers?

What are some of your favourite underrated mobile games? Like, not in the Top 100, probably made by indies, probably not even on any other platforms. What are the real gems people are missing out on?

[gamesbrief @gamesbrief]

Great opportunity here

I think tonight might be the most fun I've had doing a @TraxionGG stream so far. @hvgames have knocked it out of the park (heh) with You Suck At Parking. FANTASTIC game, the perfect blend of fun and rage

[Firefly Studios @fireflyworlds]

Firefly Studios will be heading to the @PocketGamer Connects in Helsinki 27th-28th Sept! We'll be showing the first playable build of Romans: Age of Caesar, a co-op city builder by the veteran developers of the classic Caesar series. Please contact @FireFlyNick to arrange a demo!
