To those still in denial that #everydaysexism no longer exists, here are comments on a live @Examiner broadcast I did at the scene of a police incident yesterday, compared with those left on a male colleague's the week before.

Tip of the hat to the excellent reporter and man I am very proud to describe as my ‘amigo’ @EvansTheCrime. #Respect https://t.co/f4UuzjDbGc

Spent a long time following Operation Blue Thames, and it's good to finally share the story > This is how @SWPSwansea dismantled the organised criminal gangs dealing in drugs and misery in Swansea.

It's the end of an era as the Carmarthen Journal office closes. I have been here 16 years and made some great memories with talented friends. The paper is still going and I will still be based in the town . Contact me on 07790 591150 and [email protected]

Devastated & heartbroken. Numb. Please stop asking for information/interviews. I’m in no position to speak, just know @capgaznews reporters & editors give all they have every day. There are no 40 hour weeks, no big paydays - just a passion for telling stories from our communty.

Terrible news for #Swansea > 800 job lost as Virgin Media axes its Swansea base. The firm says it is going to create “four regional customer operations hubs” instead. Begs the question: Why isn’t Swansea one of those hubs? https://t.co/rGC9vvV0su

Today the South Wales Evening Post says goodbye to its most loyal, dedicated servant @PeterSlee56 Only the best was ever good enough, never allowed complacency, never left office without laughing. Huge loss to local journalism #mentor #friend @SwanseaOnline10

Reviewers/booksellers/anyone who gets books from publishers, a few of us have written a letter asking publishers to use packaging that can be recycled. You can view the letter here and DM me if you want to sign it before we send it out: https://t.co/509jAoRJwj

April Fool's Day. A day when people pause to think if that thing they read on the internet is true or not. A skill sorely lacking during the other 364 days of the year.

If you value local news and want it to survive, you have to support your local paper - it really is that simple, folks.

@chalkychalk666 @EvansTheCrime Good to know he doesn't throw out anything in work either.

EXCLUSIVE: Daily Mail royal ‘expert’ confirms that all of Kate’s teeth are the same length too.

TOMORROW: We ask, are her knees proportionate?

[The Sun Apologies @SunApology]

Morning all. @TheSun would like to warn us all about the dangers of upskirting

How #blogging helped @nicholasgfearn to find a voice following his diagnosis with Asperger's. Proud to say he used to sit next to me when he came into the Evening Post newsroom. Always asking questions he was... #autism

EQUALITY: It blows my mind that the Mail is interpreting a decline in breast cancer deaths as part of a war on men.

Is this actually real?! https://t.co/zqVfRvPbr0
