It's 11 years since hanging up my news editor's hat, and 18 years since my last paper went from daily to weekly. But my brain is still able to conjure up scary dreams about not having a splash for tomorrow's paper. 🙃

Well done to the tireless Charlie Moloney It shouldn't be for coroners to decide what the public should and shouldn't know without any challenge from that public's eyes and ears.

This competition. Magic.

Good luck to John Wilson - one of the hardest-working and most dedicated editors I've ever come across. holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2025/news/edit…

Every @argyle fan is now head over heels in love with this man. Let's hope this performance is matched on the pitch.

For each of the last three days, I have watched one episode of the brilliant Designated Survivor, one episode of the forensically comprehensive 7/7:The London Bombings, and one episode of the beautiful, life-affirming Our Tiny Islands. Highly recommended viewing diet.

It's a ten from me for this Strictly headline

Another false Brexit promise

Halle-flippin-lujah

Vaguely watching #CallTheMidwife, and vaguely annoyed at the suggestion that mayors with executive powers existed in the 70s. Just can't help myself.

Peak man crush now.

This season we have conceded 63 league goals including being humiliated 6-1, 5-0 twice and 4-0 three times. Today we have humbled the premier league champions elect in front of the whole nation. How could you not love football. How could you not love Argyle 💚 #pafc

I used to tell my journalism students to pretend they were being charged £10 a word when writing intros. This one would cost the writer a hefty £530. Quite extraordinary.

I will never ever be able to fathom how the British media, rich chancers and politicians have turned the working class against the most vulnerable in society.

There are lies, damned lies, and Ripe & Ready to Eat labels on avocados. And then there are the barefaced falsehoods disgorged by the Trump administration in a ceaseless torrent that destroys the idea objective truth and with it the fabric of democracy. Which was always the plan.

Very good breakdown of the numbers confirming what I've been saying for months now. The upside of chasing Reform votes for Labour is tiny. The potential downside is massive

Very much this....

The weird shadow of the mid-2000s debate on ID cards never ceases to amaze. With the need for reliable digital identification and the need to clamp down on the informal labour market, the case has never been stronger.

I really hate it when people say “my taxes pay your wages” to public sector workers. I have never heard a doctor or nurse say “my training, my long nights studying after work, my moving around from job to job, my absorption of £100,000 in student debt saved your life”.

The Welsh have won the national anthems. But then they always do.
