A fine writer and an even finer man. Like a fair proportion of Melbourne school kids in the 90s, I attended one of his excellent writing seminars. He managed to find some positives in a rather clunky bit of prose I offered. True character. Vale. https://t.co/ibK8wxJ1rL

@HartWexford Consensus at Manuka is that the book features the best literary tribute to Cockington Green in many a year.

Enjoying some of @HartWexford’s fine work while watching the PM’s XI. Seems appropriate really, given the subject.

@KarenHardyCT As a regular CT reader I’ll miss your erudite style. As to what comes next, in my experience many organisations value the truth-speaking deadline-adhering nonsense-free style that (ex-)journalists bring to whatever they do.

Superb “story behind the story” on how doubts in Defence on WMD in Iraq came to light thanks to dogged reporting by ⁦@mforbesforbes⁩. Great listening for those who want to know how the sausage is made. https://t.co/PFB6DHXbDU

Few things more important than teaching kids media literacy. Great read by @joe_hinchliffe on the groundbreaking work being done by @brycecorbett. https://t.co/ezP0Z6DoAP
