Welcome to BBC Verify! I chatted to BBC Breakfast about it.

Everything from interrogating social media feeds using undercover accounts and investigating real-world impact of mistruths, hate and conspiracy movements to piecing together what’s happening with satellite imagery.

Thank you Ma’am, for everything.

@feraldata Hi Genevieve, was hoping to pick your brains on whether ethical tech can give you a competitive advantage. Just reading Anthro Vision and thought you might have some interesting views! Great if we could DM

[Josh Pettitt @JoshPettitt1]

@laurie_bristow just enjoyed you’re brilliant talk at the RCDS and wondered if I could pick your brains on something over DM?

@Cardiff_RFC So you’re saying there’s a chance 😉

[Josh Pettitt @JoshPettitt1]

@Cardiff_RFC don’t suppose you know whether you’ve got a pre-season game on 4 September?

[Josh Pettitt @JoshPettitt1]

@Cardiff_RFC Reckon you'll add a 4 September friendly to your fixture list?

[Josh Pettitt @JoshPettitt1]

@BathRugby Still got any tickets?!

[Josh Pettitt @JoshPettitt1]

@British_Airways Hi, all your phone lines get cut off as soon as you try to speak to anyone. Can you help with a query I have about getting a refund for a cancelled flight please?

Today we make history as the first major economy in the world to legislate to end its contribution to #climatechange entirely. Laws signed by @CSkidmoreUK and which come into force today commit the UK to #netzero emissions by 2050 #cleangrowth 🌍🎉https://t.co/zZU8obawPr

@cpfunrunners @striderscroydon @LondonCityAC @cityrunnersclub @StragglersRC @GoodGymBromley @gglewisham This is a disaster. Of Jurassic proportions.

Ever wondered what a "smart city" looks like?

This is what the #cities of the future could look like https://t.co/q29E0sa7IQ #technology

We used to rely on coal for ALL of our electricity. Today, we’ve gone 2 WEEKS non-stop without using a single lump of coal for electricity - the first time since the Industrial Revolution! 👏

🎉 At 3:12pm we'll have gone a full 2 weeks without using coal for power! We're phasing out coal by 2025 as we aim to become the first country to legislate for #netzero.

Great Britain without coal:

*Jan 1882*

World's 1st public coal-fired power station opens at Holborn viaduct in London.

…

*May 2016*

1st hr without coal since 1882.

*April 2017*

1st full day without coal.

*May 2019*

1st whole week.

*2025 or before*

No more coal power!

[Department for Science, Innovation and Technology @SciTechgovuk]

The UK has broken its record and gone a whole week without using coal for power - over 1,000 total hours so far this year!

We’re phasing out coal entirely by 2025 and on a path to become the first major economy to legislate for #netzero emissions.
