@MartinSLewis Liverpool University, BA Archaeology, MBA Environmental Management 1997-2001

Yes it was worth it. It provided a pathway to employment. I was also the first of my extended working class family to get a degree. Made possible due to grant.

@NVIDIAGeForceUK GeForce PC Week

[Celia Richardson @CeliaRichards0n]

This week on Instagram the National Trust launched a good news account. According to our sources millions of us urgently need it. Our first good news is about seahorses. And then there’s the kestrels. Pop across there and looks cos there’s also guillemots. Honestly.

@TomBloxhamMBE Great news. Congrats Tom.

@Everton @eToro He's not helped with Young providing no overlap or offensive energy.... Patterson needed.

@MEMckeague @londonderryICT @ArchHFund @ArchHFundNI I was there a few months ago Matthew. It's a fab city with great heritage assets and a vibrant centre.

@Samfr Great read Sam. Has anyone undertaken scenario and sensitivity forecasts on the impact of gov policy on key kpis i.e. child poverty, waiting lists? Also be interested to understand the impact of 3rd/private sector on these kpis.

@MarkFunnell6 @HartsBakery Arguably, the best bakery in the world!

@GavinBridgeUK @AnneAshworth @Zoopla Super interesting. Gavin, I pressume there are 'sweet spot' geographies where cost V market sale value ratio makes the developer case more viable? And this may not intersect with housing need hence need for public enabling investment?

@RestPoliticsUS @KattyKay_ @Scaramucci Do commentators and independent political analysts get paid for TV and radio interviews in the US? If so, how is the fee negotiated? Duncan

@Mikey_DAmbra @snikarts Is that also a Biodiversity Net Gain tag? #EnvironmentalGraffiti

@victor_dacunha Bad luck tonight Vic. The future is bright for A Seleção - loads of great young players.

[Duncan Laird @dlaird78]

Sad familiarity tonight. I think the end of the road for Clarke. Need someone to come in and work positively with the young players - Hickey, Gilmour, Doak, Patterson, Ferguson, Ramsay, Barron, Wilson #Scotland @ScotlandNT

@alexiskeech @CeliaRichards0n @HilaryMcGrady @nationaltrust Hi Alexis, we've got some to take the next step but need more to fulfil the full vision for the viaduct - https://t.co/B2pRCVk7L6

@jessgill03 Are they not just enjoying their 'liberty' of language choice you champion in your bio? It is hypocritical to define liberty for others particularly when their actions (i.e. their language choice) does not impact the liberty of others.
