@EuanMccaughey Compared to ticket prices last time round in 2014 - from memory had to enter a ballot for tickets but more affordable for more people!

@ScotRail why only 4 carriages on what must be the busiest Glasgow-Edinburgh train 0745 this morning? Totally rammed and people unable to get on.

Thank you for the applications so far. Anyone still wishing to apply - now is your chance! It doesn’t need to be a perfect pitch, we are looking for ideas we can help develop

@KateFosterMedia Read the hardback and loved it! Congratulations 🎉

@eon_next And I understand it's not an emergency supply issue but it beeps through the night and 11 days before someone can come out is not good enough

[Judith Duffy @JudDuffy]

@eon_next you installed a smart meter and one day later it has started an intermittent high pitched loud beeping which goes on throughout the night. Been told can't get someone out until 4 March???

[Judith Duffy @JudDuffy]

@eon_next It's the actual smart meter - have checked the in-home display to make sure alerts are off etc

This video from @TaylorLorenz about the potential collapse of journalism is deeply important. Especially over the past 48 hours

“I don’t think people understand how bad the world would be without journalists”

“I don’t want to live in a world where all of the news is delivered through 60-second videos with retention editing”

“The rise of citizen journalism on apps like TikTok and elsewhere has overwhelmingly been a positive thing. … but there’s a ton of really talented journalists that are also just not great social media people”

“Some journalists do really deep investigations or local reporting or sit through hour-long city council meetings to hold some local politician to account… and that’s really important work. And it’s work that somebody should pay for and it’s work that’s not rewarded by these social media algorithms”

“It’s really hard to amass a subscriber base and then maintain that subscriber base over time when you’re doing investigative work. And that’s if you don’t get sued out of existence after you publish the first critical story of a billionaire”

“Journalism is something a lot of people won’t realize they miss until it’s gone”

@meetthemacs I was at my goddaughter's house over Xmas and reading a bedtime story to her when she went and got a kazoo and hid it under her pillow. Turns out she had been on stage at the panto...it cost her dad a tenner. Think that's your fault 🤣!!
