@aaronchown @TheBPPA @PA Fantastic - well done, mate

Brilliant exhibition celebrating the best in British Press Photography. Very honoured to have made the cut. If you are around London go check it out! bbc.com/news/in-pictur… @TheBPPA @PA

@MattChorley Sylvia was my (top notch) teacher too - and with lots of patience for my struggle, even I got there in the end.

Still got it… A new report suggests that fewer than 1 in 5 new journalists pass 100wpm shorthand. So I spoke to my old shorthand teacher Sylvia - who did a test on air ✍️

@Shayan86 Thank you for sharing

THREAD: How to verify images online? Social media is awash with false or misleading images, some of which get millions of engagements. So, here's a simple guide on ways you can quickly check the veracity of an image you see on your social media feeds.

@VictoriaJonesPA @PA @downingstreet Amazing stuff, as always

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak welcomes Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Downing Street, London, during his first visit to the UK since the conflict in Ukraine began nearly a year ago.

@aaronchown @PA Awesome, Aaron

@_CaitlinDoherty I also enjoy obsolete multimedia, but won't go further back than 2004. My minidisc collection is booming. They still arrive in this size of box.

Not sure how delivering a single vinyl record in a box so big it needs its own seat on the bus fits in to Amazon’s sustainability strategy…

@MatthewGeorgewh I was there too, Matt. Think it's the best live gig I've ever seen. And that's saying something.

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds are as fine a live act as anyone around and proved it again at All Points East. 20 songs, crowd singalongs, Tupelo, The Mercy Seat, plenty of Warren Ellis looking like an Old Testament prophet and Cave joking with fans in the front row. Spectacular.

Wow.

"Twelve years – you’ve done bugger all about it." This is the moment an angry member of the public interrupted a press interview with Health Secretary Steve Barclay to ask him why the Government has done “nothing” about lengthy waits for ambulances

@tomjrowley Sounds pleasantly dangerous

Many thanks to the charming stranger who shouted ‘good luck with the bookshop’ as I hovered on my bike at a junction in Holborn just now. I suppose this is how royalty must feel.

Incredible

@tomjrowley @Ananyo We're both former colleagues of his, I think! Well-deserved acclaim for this.

@PeterCary1 @Ananyo Thank you. I've ordered Ananyo's already :)

What biographies should I stock? (Since you did so well with the biz question yesterday!)

@tomjrowley Oh, and @Ananyo's The Man From The Future

@tomjrowley Quite dense literary ones, but all great: Orwell: The Life by D J Taylor Virginia Woolf by Hermione Lee D H Lawrence by John Worthen Joseph Anton by Salman Rushdie Music wise - Scar Tissue by Anthony Kiedis History - Hitler by Kershaw An Unfinished Life - R Dalak on Kennedy

@paulsng Fell asleep on the last train home and missed his stop? Long way back to Soho at 1am...

@ArthurJEdwards Happy birthday Arthur

@MarcWardVideo The standard footage of Bournemouth will just be hundreds of roasting skeletons, just having a lovely time.

I have a horrible feeling that on Tuesday/Wednesday that people will go to beaches etc, 40c isn't nice weather to lay in - it's the same thing as enjoying a bit of rain and going for a walk in a typhoon.
