@Azadeh_Moshiri Impressive reporting by you from the streets of Paris tonight - well done! Sounds like you're a native speaker of both EN and FR? 👏

Moment results of #France’s elex came in. Absolute jubilation among supporters of the New Popular Front. Not everyone agrees w each other here, some don’t support man of the night at this gathering Jean-Luc Mélenchon. But they’re relieved they kept the far-right somewhat at bay.

Not sure I can cope with any more good news this weekend?? 🤪 🍾

@Number10cat @Charlueder @derspiegel Larry spricht auch deutsch? Toll!

@Charlueder @derspiegel Prima!

@queenchristina_ @Keir_Starmer Me too. It feels like a sense of moral (as well as political vision) has returned to government.... let's enjoy it!

"We have the chance to deliver because we changed the party" says @Keir_Starmer. "Country past, party second isn't a slogan. It's the guiding principle of everything we have done and must keep going. " Yes, yes, yes. Am finally feeling New Dawn-y. What an effing relief.

@MichelBarnier @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @LibDems 👍 Britain is back! Collaborons de nouveau en tant que bons voisins...

Congratulations to @Keir_Starmer / @UKLabour & @LibDems on your victory ! Best wishes to the British people. A new era can begin between the European Union & the United Kingdom. Let’s make it fruitful. We have so many challenges to address, together: peace, cooperation in Africa, security, AI… 🇪🇺 🇬🇧

@10DowningStreet @AngelaRayner @luhc Delighted for you. ♥️ The antidote to everything that the Tory party has done to Britain over the past 14 years.

The Rt Hon Angela Rayner MP @AngelaRayner has been appointed Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities @luhc. She will also be Deputy Prime Minister. #Reshuffle

@philippahammond 😲 I can't imagine you causing a police incident at a polling station, Philippa?! 😄

@carolvorders @Channel4 Well said @carolvorders! 👍🙂

About last night 😂 Don’t think I’ll be on Nadine’s Xmas Card List do you? @Channel4

@Claire_Cox16 ☹️ I dread that happening...

Not what you want to happen on the way to an urgent vet referral 😳☹️

@AMDTransl @RestIsPolitics Agree entirely. I was looking forward to watching EM and KGM but when I saw they had those two with them, I stuck to @BBCNews. Editorial blunder, @Channel4News?

@RestIsPolitics I did. Not enough of you two, Maitlis or KGM, too much Dorries and Kwarteng, turned over to BBC for now.

Tune in 👇🗳️

Slow translation is a thoughtful, human process done by people who care about words and meaning and take the time to research & understand the nuances of the source text before translating it. As a legal & HR specialist translator, I support @ITIUK Slow Translation Manifesto.

@nickrosenthal We waited up all night to watch that moment... she kept them waiting 10 mins before turning up on the platform, then cleared off immediately with no word. An appropriate end to an ignominious political career.

People of South West Norfolk: An entire nation salutes you!

@LibDems Yes congratulations to @Lisa_Smart! 🍾 Richly deserved after years of hard work. Good luck for the task ahead!

🔶Liberal Democrats GAIN Hazel Grove Congratulations Lisa Smart MP

@bphillipsonMP Fantastic. Congratulations and good luck! After the horror show of recent years, the teaching profession must be delighted. 🍾

I am honoured to have been asked to serve as Secretary of State for Education. We pledged change and we will deliver the most crucial changes of all: High and rising standards More opportunity The best life chances for all children That work starts now.

@queenchristina_ Absolutely... 🍾

My God, I am literally weeping with joy. I know the euphoria won't last, but thank God, thank God, thank God. What a blessed, joyful relief. #NewPM #newera #Labourbackinpower

@DalesTranslator Having got to bed at 6.45am, glad I wasn't working today! 🤪 Prosecco on ice. 🍾

A good day. The Tories got absolutely rinsed in the election and I finished a LONG translation at 4.30 on a Friday afternoon. Definitely beer o’clock.

Spectacular location for this year's @ITIUK conference in Edinburgh beneath Arthur's Seat. Thanks to all organisers, ITI staff and speakers for delivering another fantastic event!

@polish_linguist @ringlada @Bosphorustrans @RobinHumphrey Good to meet you too, Agata! 🙂

On Day One of the #ITIConf2024 I met a few wonderful colleagues I only knew from social media, CPD webinars or ITI networks: Tess Whitty, @ringlada @MikeHanson3 @Bosphorustrans @RobinHumphrey It's also great to see again the translators and interpreters I've met before!

@HKerschl @NWTN_UK @YTIUK @LBLaurence @xl8_KLo @JDCrossfield @Kasiabesfud @sarajcrofts Thanks @HKerschl, good to see you, John and the other 20 colleagues. Next time I must make sure I lead the harder walk, so we can catch up properly! 😃

Many thanks to @MikeHanson3, @NWTN_UK and @YTIUK for a grand day's #hiking. Lovely to see @LBLaurence, @xl8_KLo, @JDCrossfield, @Kasiabesfud and many other #translators & #interpreters, and great to meet @sarajcrofts in person.

@nickrosenthal River Ribble? Near Ribchester? 🙂 Lots of 🌞 at Blackpool too.

Day out in the Lancashire sunshine. And a pub lunch!
