“Like ⁦@RevRichardColes⁩ I also feel sad that @BBCRadio4 never announced my exit from ⁦@BBCFrontRow⁩ & persuaded me not to say goodbye after 19 years.”

What is it with the #BBC these days? ⁦@thatkirstylang⁩ https://t.co/Pl6BhppF3a

@MichaelSadgrove @RevRichardColes @BBCRadio4 @BBCFrontRow @thatkirstylang Same thing happened when Radio 3 suffered upheaval. It was reported that management people were in the studio to make sure that none of the old 'outgoing' presenters made any reference to the fact that this was their last show.

@StortfordAndrew @GuidoFawkes Half a memory from half a lifetime ago:
In view of the settlement time with barristers' fees (not received until after a case is settled), there are particular rules about just what year they are due to be assessed in.

@tristramc @IanDunt I never believed that he did.

Had he actually had Covid (with hospital treatment), his later conduct would have been different.

@FT That's been the only certainty in the whole process.

Just in case you were worried you were being gaslit by @SuellaBraverman with her media junket showing how "beautiful" refugee homes were in Rwanda...

Her photo op was in a brand new residential housing development NOT housing for asylum seekers!

@Ekklesia_co_uk They're merely upset that they've been found out.

Johnson’s defence against Partygate allegations is absurd https://t.co/ZejZk3AOSI Johnson”s defence to accusations on partying requires that we believe he was in special category of people, all on his own. That is insane.
