@elonmusk Waste is paying $44bn for Twitter and then trashing it. Just saying. Free speech and all that

This is what we’re dealing with everywhere in government

Is #Poundland store changing its name to #Motherland a one-off or a strategic pivot from the elephant in the room: a price-limited name in an age of rampant inflation thegrocer.co.uk/poundland/poun…

@Art93319672 @mrjamesob Less immigration too. Another lie

@mrjamesob The Tories said we would have: Better pay. They Lied. A better NHS. Lied. Better schools. Lied. Better trade. Lied. Better food and environment standards. Lie, lie. Better health. Lied. Cheaper food. Lied. Better policing. Lie. Better housing. Lie. Remember this when you vote.

I've waited seven years for this moment. "There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad." George Orwell, 1984

Talking to her that day about the upcoming job interview I had with The Grocer, her insights were enormously helpful in getting me the job. And that moment effectively sealed our friendship forever. XXX

I’ve known Ailana for over 17 years and still vividly recall our first meeting. Ailana called me up one lovely summer’s day and invited me to the English Physic Garden in Chelsea - near where I worked - and laid on a fabulous picnic…

Today is the funeral of my dear friend Ailana Kamelmacher, the @thestory_agency and @INTUNEdrinks founder, and former head of PR @Innocent. This is my obituary thegrocer.co.uk/people/ailana-…

This is my obituary for Ailana Kamelmacher, my dear friend, in @TheGrocer. I've known her for almost 20 years, since her @innocent days. She was a brilliant and beautiful woman. thegrocer.co.uk/people/ailana-…

So chuffed to see our fresh food senior reporter @gracieellen_ picking up a Next Gen award at the PPA Awards. A terrific hire, super smart, she's switched brilliantly from PR and is thriving on @TheGrocer . Here's to more great stories. #nextgen thegrocer.co.uk/people/the-gro…

Today is #WorldFoodDay, and I wanted to use it to thank all individuals and companies who sponsored me on my Mahale Mountains walk in Tanzania last month for @FarmAfrica. We raised >£200k! thegrocer.co.uk/people/adam-le… #FarmAfrica #FoodSecurity #FoodSystems #SustainableAgriculture

Or sponsor one of my amazing companions on our sponsored walk for @FarmAfrica in the Mahale Mountains of West Tanzania. Thanks

But the most important thing is raising money for this fantastic charity. It’s the first big sponsored walk @farmafrica has been able to undertake since Covid. It’s vital that we raise much needed funds. You can sponsor me via my Justgiving page justgiving.com/fundraising/ad…

I’m so honoured and excited to be accompanying some amazing senior grocery industry executives on my sponsored walk for @FarmAfrica in Tanzania next month. Allow me to introduce them in this string: from @sainsburys there’s @MarkJGiven, @RCrampton23 and Rhian Bartlett

To sponsor me on my expedition with @FarmAfrica please visit my Justgiving page here justgiving.com/fundraising/ad…

The DECIDE project is one we’ll be visiting on our trip. As sales grow it’s helping to address the lack of business acumen that is holding smallholder farmers back as they seek to develop new routes to market and to access marketing and processing capacity eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2…

As I prepare for my epic sponsored walk next month in Tanzania, I want to outline in this string the important work @FarmAfrica does for smallholder farmers in the region.
