Fascinating from @amyhawk_ I'm surprised more is not made of the potentially disastrous impact of China's dire demographics on its economy. If population shrinks, the economy follows, surely? https://t.co/W9rc6z50di

Just saw the @GuardianAus has turned 10. congrats. I did a bunch of freelance yarns for the them bk in 2014. I was out of my depth and my writing at times was shite. But @Ian_J_Griffiths @MartinFarrer @mikewsc1 @lee_glend @alexneedham74 were always kind. A wonderful news site.

@Ticketek_AU Great. Thanks very much. I have sold three of the tickets but I have one left to refund. Will DM my details

@Ticketek_AU Hi, I've got four Billy Bragg tickets that I can't use because I've left Aus since buying them in 2019. Can you sort a refund for me?

Such sad news. Henry was a great reporter and a lovely bloke. I always enjoyed discussing stories with him and learning from his insight. Massive #Everton fan. As Henry would ahve said, UTFT

Wonderful - although not as good as it used to be before the makeover. This clip of Brian Johnson interviewing Mark Knopfler in there is magic. https://t.co/vxnTIFtE3S
