Had an amazing few days at @STVNews !
Thanks to the whole team for being so helpful, and letting me tag along.

What an amazing show!

Big thanks to the cast and crew of @GreenockLOC for taking the time to have a chat before their performance of Shrek.

It’s always great to report on local stories. #studentjournalist

This gives off a “you won, Jane” type of energy.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

You blew it, Donald.
If you’d shown Americans leadership & empathy when it really mattered in the past year, you’d have been re-elected.
Instead, you failed them.
Spectacularly badly.
And now you slink off as a gutless graceless sore loser.
How pathetic.
Shame on you.

Very interesting to hear from @sophiasgaler for @risj_oxford discussing content on TikTok and how the platform is being used by journalists.

I have been following Sophia since last year and her work is super interesting, especially her latest radio doc https://t.co/zh2t3VEz7l

@christopherhope @piersmorgan Do you believe a sincere apology is accepted when ‘cancel culture’ is the cause of someone’s downfall ?

How would Piers cope if it truly does cancel him ?

Feeling seen.

Now that I think of it, was this Nolan’s take on Bond?

[Isla Robertson @isla110103]

Totally not sitting in a cinema myself like a loser just to see #Tenet before people realise that it is another Nolan masterpiece.

Although, already aware I may need to see it a second time to fully understand it.

[Isla Robertson @isla110103]

Self proclaimed film critic here to tell you that yes it was very complex but it also just... worked.

Had strong Inception vibes and will 100% need a second watch to fully comprehend the madness and Nolan’s made-up terms.

Attended an amazing @SkyNews virtual open day hosted by @SkyNewsGamal. Listening to a range of people working in journalism through various different formats was incredibly insightful. Thanks to all of the guests and panelists who gave great advice.

[Jack Edwards @jackbenedwards]

Why did it take complaints and outrage for the exam boards to recognise that every single candidate they sent results to is a human being with a life, a future, and feelings?!?!

Students are not statistics they are people !

[Isla Robertson @isla110103]

@Campbell_MacP Also classism is NOT cool.

[Isla Robertson @isla110103]

@Campbell_MacP I accept his apology and I am happy with his decision to allow predicted grades by teachers to be used in grading. However, the undermining of teachers professional judgment at the start and the week long wait that students had to bare was not acceptable.

@sophiasgaler There is a heavy presence of videos that may trigger people who battle an eating disorder. There are many positive weight loss and recovery videos showcasing what people eat in a day. However there are also may vidoes glamourising bad eating habits.

The #SQA alternative grading system used this year due to the absence of exams has completely failed in assuring the fairness they state has been reached in grading.
It is clear that the deprivation level of your schools surrounding area has had a huge impact in the grading.

[Isla Robertson @isla110103]

This tweet has made my day slightly more tolerable.

[beth 💜 @bethplosion]

dear lord, what a sad little life, sqa. you ruined our results completely so you could have the increased pass rate and i hope now you can spend it on lessons in grace and decorum because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on #sqaresults

[Nick Eardley @nickeardleybbc]

Blimey.

This from Scottish Government on grades: “133,000 entries were adjusted from the initial estimate, around a quarter of all entries. 6.9% of those estimates were adjusted up and 93.1% were adjusted down, with 96% of all adjusted grades changed by one grade."
