Fantastic being out there today with the other 999,999 peeps

Astonishing scenes from the @BBCNews meeting with Tim Davie and Samir Shah.
* Chairman sait it was disrespectful to suggest board wasn’t upholding BBC values, causing widespread fury
* Explained the week long delay in commenting on @Telegraph leak was because of need to check facts. Telling that to a newsroom where they have to meet hourly deadlines again didn’t land well.
* Interview with Davie and Shah not conducted by any of the BBC presenters, but by head of internal comms
* Newsroom has been told it can use clips on bulletins of Davie praising staff, but none of Samir Shah
* am told mood is sulfurous and mutinous

Don’t worry about your A-level exam results, in 20 years’ time you’ll be more worried about:

1. Not being able to move your neck for half a day because you slept a bit funny
2. Hoping any event you attend has adequate seating
3. Staying in for parcels with a delivery window of “between 6am and 10pm” (and they might not come at all)
4. Something silly and embarrassing that you said 20 years ago
5. All your teaspoons going missing. Where do they go?!
6. Trying to kick a ball back to a random young person in the park without falling over
7. Finding it exciting to look at sheds at the garden centre
8. Searching for the perfect hoover
9. Hairs: grey ones/ones now growing from your ears/receding ones
10. The fact you can’t bend down without making a loud groaning noise

Yep

Suddenly remembering every bad thing you've ever done when someone says “can you come here a minute, please?”

A model for us all. Draft your own death notice while you still can …

Add to that the windrush scandal and I'm hooked.

[Have I Got News For You @haveigotnews]

After the effect of 'Mr Bates vs the Post Office', let’s hope Toby Jones is also working on new TV dramas about water pollution, climate change, covid, PPE contracts, the refugee crisis, the cost of living, energy prices, and the NHS

[Helena Horton @horton_official]

Our front page today from the amazing @guardianeco team who’ve uncovered the most polluting elites and their carbon belching lifestyles

[Jess Phillips @jessphillips]

Just a little reminder that Government have spent more money on the failed Rwanda scheme than it did on domestic abuse refuges for women and children.

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

This is so dangerous and irresponsible. When parliamentarians - law makers, for goodness sake - say ‘ignore the law’ and that judges are ‘enemies of the people’ you are on a very slippery slope. We saw how that ended in the US on Jan 6

Trump in court:
Counsel: did you prepare the 2021 financial statement
Trump: ‘I was so busy in the White House, focusing on Russia and China and keeping our country safe’
Counsel: you weren’t president then

@researchnick @BBCNews Absolutely

[The State of LinkedIn @StateOfLinkedIn]

Looks like every Linkedin post

[John Gapper @johngapper]

That is quite a time commitment

[Adam Sharp @AdamCSharp]

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with one purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

[Buitengebieden @buitengebieden]

Wait for it.. 😂

[AJ, is it not? @AJ_ay_it]

Has anyone done a case study on the Lotus Biscoff success story because I feel like they’ve gone from weird little meeting/hotel tea tray biscuits to being absolutely everywhere and in absolutely everything and I’d like to know how?

[stephhallatt @stephhallatt]

Surprisingly lovely day here @charltonlido @FoCLSE7

[GLL @GLL_UK]

New research from @Swim_England has shown the huge #ValueOfSwimming to the nation at more than £2.4billion each year.

But we know our pools have the potential to do so much more. That’s why we’re saying - don’t put a cap on swimming!

[jonn elledge is mainly on bluesky @JonnElledge]

why does this year's Labour conference brochure look like a 1998 solo album of songs about why he left the band

[stephhallatt @stephhallatt]

Absolutely with you

[Rocca Holly-Nambi @Artachat]

Proud to stand with friends and colleagues to welcome our new residents to Portland today.

We don’t agree with the barge, but we stand together in compassion. 🏝️ 💕

@hwallop Hell yes (couldn't bring myself to really swear)
