@JohnSimpsonNews I remain a big fan of the BBC, especially its international news service, but this has been a disaster and without decisive action will get worse. The chair /spokesperson Shah isn’t helping. A strong apology and tactical deescalation required. Hope it gets sorted.

@JohnSimpsonNews John, Does this look like a real trend downwards over a long period? Or could it be just a blip?

Murder rates aren’t just dropping steeply in Britain — they’re even dropping in the US (though of course they’re far higher there). The 2024 homicide rate in the US decreased by about 15%, one of the largest drops in American history — and mostly in the largest cities.

@bbcpress A titan of broadcasting who presents such a diverse range of topics with his own massive breadth of knowledge and orchestrates a panel of experts so expertly. What a legacy.

@Bobby_Seagull I don’t agree with her method because she is wasting energy. She could have overlapped them better.

@HillF1 Both fast. I think Oscar has more aggression and can overcome obstacles more than Lando by maintaining his composure and working round problems / mishaps. I think everything has to be running right for Lando to extract the best. I’m hoping Lando proves me wrong.

That was a very high pressure race for Lando. Oscar is never going to let up. Lando has the fight of his life to win this championship. Can he do it? What do you reckon? #f1

@karunchandhok @SilverstoneUK Thanks @karunchandhok for this insight. Amazing all of the work behind the scenes! Thanks for all the recognition of volunteers too, especially marshals. Without volunteers, there’s no racing.

@karunchandhok @HillF1 @simon_lazenbyF1 @sylverents Just watched it on Sky. I really enjoyed it. I also like to know more about Damon after his F1 career, and his family life. He’s a great ambassador for motorsport, and comes across as a fine human being. Handy on two wheels too.

Really loved the “Hill” documentary last night… A powerful human story about a boy who lost his dad when he was 15 and then spent a lifetime putting the tragedy behind him. Of course it’s also an F1 story - as @HillF1 said it shows that “winning a Championship really matters”. Congratulations to my friends @simon_lazenbyF1 and his team at @sylverents for bringing this to life - the archive is incredible! 👏🏽👏🏽

@MBrundleF1 Congratulations and well deserved for all of the service to the sport. F1 would not be the same without you and your knowledgeable contribution.

I received this very special award in a spectacularly beautiful setting from HRH Prince of Wales today on behalf of my family and friends, everyone who created and operated any racing car I drove, and everybody who has been part of creating and transmitting any Formula One broadcast I’ve been fortunate to be part of. Sincere thanks to all of you who have shared the journey with me so far.
Sky Sports F1@SkySportsF1

Congratulations to our very own Martin Brundle for receiving his OBE from the Prince of Wales at Windsor Castle for services to motor racing and to sports broadcasting 👏

@JohnSimpsonNews I don’t see the US turning their back on Ukraine. To do so risks them losing access to minerals deals - unless they carve up Ukraine assets with Russia. I don’t see either option being viable.

We’ve reached a point where we have other things we have to focus on,’ says Marco Rubio, US Secretary of State, about Ukraine. Remember — Pres Trump was going to get a ceasefire in his first 24 hours, then by Easter. Now Russia can continue attacking Ukrainian civilians at will.

@SkyHelpTeam So the app doesn’t have full functionality on PC? This is a problem because my elderly father can’t handle a touchscreen or small screen. Hmmm. Not good. The main reason for subscribing is for him.

I have a Sky account with sports. When I try to watch SkySports+ app on my win PC I get the wrong game streaming (football instead of rugby league). Happened tonight with StH vs Wakefield. Quite a frequent problem. @SkyHelpTeam

If Liz Truss, one of Britain’s most effective and widely respected Prime Ministers, says Mark Carney will not be good for Canada you know this will be the case. Say what you like about Liz but her judgement on all matters political is ALWAYS spot on.✅

@JohnSimpsonNews I hope you are right, John. Surely it is only a matter of time before a coalition of rebel Republicans and Dems start to act against Trump and Vance, especially on the unconstitutional use of Executive Orders and the excesses of Elon Musk. Regards.

I don’t think JD Vance meant to be dismissive of British and French military support in Iraq and Afghanistan. He just didn’t pause before opening his mouth. The people round Trump think they’re the masters of the universe at the moment. I don’t imagine it’ll last.
