Yet another BA flight bumped onto standby because they have oversold the flight. Off to the desk to beg to be allowed to fly back. Compensation doesn't really help with nursery pick-up or being a good father or husband does it @British_Airways

I believe this meets the criteria to be called a marmalade dropper https://t.co/8x4PUjta7A

Exc from @PippaCrerar - The partner of a sitting Labour MP is among three people who have been arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of spying for China, the Guardian understands.

This interview from @larisamlbrown is quite something. How one moment can define a lifetime

Two decades ago Richard Jackson, then a high-flying civil servant destined for a notable career in public service, lost top secret documents containing intelligence on al-Qaeda and Iraq on a train

The documents were found by a member of the public and passed to the BBC

Jackson was charged under the Official Secrets Act, prosecuted, fined and demoted three grades

He says he has never forgiven himself; that he had no excuses and that he deserved what happened; he accepts the process because it was by the book

He subsequently suffered from clinical depression and once considered taking his own life. He says his wife, Maddie, saved him. 'I wouldn't be here without her'

He has set up a coaching and wellbeing company called Newday, which aims to help others who handle sensitive or distressing information cope with the strain

“I will probably never forgive myself for it [the loss of the documents]. I am, I guess, ashamed of it. But I have to move on. I went through a phase of not wanting to move on, that is why I do what I do now.”

Following advice from a life coach, he has Post-it Notes next to his desk reminding him of all the positive things he has done

“It does help, but in the back of my head I still have that voice going, you still left papers on the train. That is always there. Always.”

[The R&A @RandA]

The 153rd Open at Royal Portrush generated more than £280 million in economic benefit for Northern Ireland ⛳️

The figures represent a significant increase on the total economic impact generated when The Open was last held at Royal Portrush in 2019 with key drivers including the growth in fan attendance, higher daily spending and more visitors staying in commercial accommodation.

Little trip to Portrush to check it out before @TheOpen. Course is looking great and everything ready for a big week. ☘️

I don't normally get Glastonbury jealously, but The Prodigy right now.... one of those bands I just never saw live and always regret it!
