I finish today - for a while - as a civil servant to take up a new challenge. In doing so, I want to pay tribute to colleagues at all levels across NICS. It won’t necessarily be popular to say it, but as a society we owe a debt to the civil service. (1/4)

Thrilled to say Killing Thatcher has become a Sunday Times bestseller. Big thank you to all who bought, read or supported the book.

Still wondering if Charlie got that painting signed. Such a great book. Thanks for writing it.

The west Belfast grave of ‘fridge’ scientist Prof Thomas Andrews - who died in 1885 - has finally been restored.
Great work by Grave Concern Ireland. 👏

Very best of luck to my former Editor, the The Irish News Noel Doran as he retires. An amazing man, a fair, astoundingly intelligent and caring editor, the best boss, the strongest and most steadfast of leaders. Best of luck for the next big adventure Noel!

Brian Walker “perhaps some unconscious bias”…
Dear God Brian the BBC at that time was ludicrously Protestant represented & biased.
Eamonn only shifted it a tiny bit from extreme Protestant to very, very, very Protestant.

Eamonn didn't last in the BBCNI- unfortunately for the BBC. Too much the individualist already and perhaps some unconscious bias? But greater freedom in the fledgling Downtown Radio was the making of him.

It’s 26 years old today.
Still saving lives.
Still the bedrock of the New Northern Ireland we live in today.
The first 25yrs were transformational.
The next 25yrs will be even better.
Keep the faith and keep moving forward.
