@Essex_Travel Hello. I'm a local BBC News journalist. Is this a photo from the National Highways cameras?

M25 Anticlockwise - carriageway closed between J30 (A13) adn J29 (A127) more details to follow

@fc_writtle Yep, can't argue with that. Plus - best legs in Writtle.

@Lewiskr_ @Lewiskr_ Please also specify if you'd like a name credited to the photos, and if so, how it should appear? i.e. your full name.

@petewalkerbbc 👍🏼👍🏼

The Kenny’s on fire

@Lewiskr_ Thanks - I should have specified. This is for the BBC News website, and possible regional TV (Look East)

What a clip – unimaginable when I first started cycling in London. No special occasion, just people getting to work

The man, the legend, that is ⁦@DaveMonkEssex⁩ presents his final show on ⁦@BBCEssex⁩ this afternoon,after 37yrs behind the mic. Beautiful piece here by ⁦@petewalkerbbc⁩ with some things you might not know about this multi-talented chap 🎤 bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Lot of nonsense spouted about “trial by media” re Russell Brand. The media has no power to try and/or convict. Rightly. But it has a responsibility to research, reveal and expose wrongdoing. Which it has in the Brand investigation by @Channel4 @thetimes — responsibly and thoroughly in this case. It is proper journalism which so-called alternative media (like Brand himself these days) has neither the patience nor resource nor expertise to carry it. It just bloviates and spreads conspiracies based on fake news while the much-despised mainstream media still does the necessary heavy lifting.

This is fascinating: The 'formidable' Essex architect behind school concrete crisis bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Powerful 1970s architect Ralph Crowe was a key reason for the schools Raac crisis in Essex. Thank you to @essexarchive who hosted me for three hours while I researched this piece.

The Thurrock council review refers to the dogged work of @Gareth_Davies09 and @TBIJ in revealing the scale of the scandal and attempting to hold councillors to account. Naturally, Thurrock's leaders scoffed at and ignored the reports and ploughed on regardless.

@SNCFVoyageurs Bonsoir. Avez-vous une adresse e-mail? It is about an upcoming booking.

@Gareth_Davies09 The BBC has a voluntary one-day course on interviewing/working with traumatised people, which a regional corr set up off her own back. But something similar should absolutely be an undergraduate/NCTJ or industry standard.

We the media must rethink how we cover tragedy. These are people, not stories. We cannot rebuild trust in our industry, fundamental to its future, by continuing to act as the latter is the only thing that matters

Thurrock Council’s Cabinet meets tonight to discuss and agree on budget proposals including a 10% council tax rise. Here are the views of local people who’s authority is effectively bankrupt 👇 bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

London in February

Flood of 1953: Joan remembers her father playing piano while the water rose. Powerful piece from ⁦@petewalkerbbc⁩ bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

BBC boss Tim Davie has to explain the concept of impartiality to Tory MP Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, after he accuses Radio 4's Today programme of being "unremittingly negative towards this country".

Your own GOAT will always be yours, whether Best or Messi, CR7 or the original Ronaldo, or Maradona, or Cruyff or Zidane, or Eusebio or so many more. Fair enough. But do watch this: Pelé did it first. twitter.com/Mfutebolistico…

In football, you’ve got to be there or thereabouts
