Important thread (for me!): With heavy heart I announce I will be leaving the BBC. Despite sterling efforts by new DG to come up with other programming opportunities, it could not quite repair damage done when Andrew Neil Show cancelled early summer + Politics Live taken off air

Its great - money being spent with independents in outlying areas instead of chains like Pret.
Less commuting means lower pollution & congestion.
Better work/life balance for employees.
Lower costs for businesses.

Says Tory Brexiter Robbie Gibb who was in overall charge of the BBC’s political programme output until he left in July 2017 to become Director of Communications at 10 Downing Street. No wonder the BBC's post-referendum coverage was so biased against Remain.

Why should Civil Servants need to go back to the workplace. They are successfully working from home, fulfilling their jobs, saving themselves a fortune in travel costs.

It’s hideous. Take it down.
What do you think of London’s new artwork on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square? It’s by the artist @h_phillipson and has been unveiled this morning. It’s called THE END... #4thplinth

Extremely grateful to @ScrivenerApp. My writing is still a mess but at least it's now a more *organized* mess.

As one would expect from a former member of the Revolutionary Communist Party and who is now closely aligned to @spikedonline. 😂😂😂 Ah you always cheer me up Mr Goodwin.

Would you care to explain why(you think) instead of actually implementing recommendations made by the previous 3 similarly tasked commissions, yet another commision has been started ?😏

If, God forbid, there is a second spike it will be because the government failed to provide clarity & leadership at every stage of the lockdown. Cummings was the final nail in the coffin. Everybody understands this. There’s little point arguing with anyone pretending not to.
