Breaking news at @itvnews.bsky.social this afternoon. #kanyewest won’t now be allowed into the UK, and organisers say #wirelessfestival will be cancelled.

The shameless on-air space geekery continues, this time at BBC News. I apologise for nothing… #artemis #nasa #spacegeek

Genuinely can’t remember when I first travelled on this boat, so it was great to document a new era for @merseyferries.bsky.social at @itvnews.bsky.social this weekend. (With a bit of help from Gerry Marsden, obviously…)

The secret to making a Journalist feel warm inside:

This is my real everyday desk calculator. Love the satisfying sound of the keys when you use it. It’s helping me cope with ‘January Accounting Hell’ #retrotech #calculator #olympia #accounting

Genuine question: Where does one get a timetable in 2026?

Busy morning on @lbc.co.uk yesterday, as we heard reaction to the news that Sir Tony Blair has been appointed to the #gaza ‘Board of Peace’ alongside President Trump

Not sure I’m completely on board with BBC News’ latest workplace mental health policy…

I'll bang this drum again... Speaking as someone who went to a state comprehensive school and left education at 16, few things say "You are not welcome here" than reading something like this. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Sometimes a Saturday morning news programme can be a little slow, with no breaking stories of any significance. This wasn’t one of those mornings… @lbc.co.uk

A shout out to all the people who find their life defined by red exclamation marks #cymraeg

Flying visit…

Bit of indulgence for @lbc.co.uk Tech Correspondent @willguyatt.rocks and me last weekend, to celebrate 40 years of #supermario #nintendo #mario #gameboy #retrogame

If you get this joke, then you’re exceptionally geeky about at least two different things… #SteelyDan #Prestel #Ceefax #Geekery

Think it’s time for a little #MentalHealth update: #BipolarDisorder #ADHD

With the death of #matthewperry back in the headlines, I’m reminded of this report I made for @itvnews.bsky.social Some of the things we were told were truly shocking.

I realise I have often painted a rather gloomy picture of the online hate circulating in this business. I’ll counter that by saying that nice people do exist, like the sender of this rather lovely message I received recently…

Sick of horse racing? Maybe corgi racing could be the answer… Couldn’t resist this one for @itvnews.bsky.social #corgiracevilnius #dogs #corgi #andfinally

Felt we should mention @dafyddiwan.bsky.social’s final gig before I signed off on @lbc.co.uk yesterday morning. Shame the rugby result didn’t quite match up to hopes, though… #dafyddiwan #ymaohyd #rugbyworldcup #rugbywomen

Just in case you had any doubts about the power of radio to improve your life…

Was great to catch up with @amyshirateitel.bsky.social on @lbc.co.uk last weekend, to talk about the extraordinary career of #Apollo13 Astronaut #JimLovell

Some more good news this morning. A massive thank you to everyone who has joined us!

I know England is giving the #Lionesses quite a homecoming. However, in Nigeria…

Don’t say it…

Today’s life hack…

One of those mornings when a story hits you completely out of the blue, and you have to grab whatever info you can to report some very tragic news. @itvnews.bsky.social #DiogoJota

What a great start to a morning. Thank you, internet. Anyone know how ‘laud’ I should be talking on the ‘British BBC’?

Apparently I’m a TikTokker now… Bringing stories to all platforms (even the radio) for @lbc.co.uk News. (With a bit of help from @alexdeakin.bsky.social and @georgehavenith.bsky.social from @lborouniversity.bsky.social) #heatwave #heatwaveuk #summer #weather #meteorology

They’ve let me go in the fancy studio again… @lbc.co.uk

Seems legit…

“Working-class professionals… live in fear of losing their jobs” Here’s Sophie Pender from @the93percentclub.bsky.social talking to me on @lbc.co.uk yesterday about their Big State School Survey

Live now on LBC News @lbc.co.uk

I’m in slightly more impressive surroundings this morning. With crockery you can’t buy in John Lewis ;)

Tonight I’m going to remember time spent copying my Dad’s Beach Boys records onto cassettes to listen to endlessly on my Walkman. Thanks for everything, Brian…

Confused my Italian breads and asked for my breakfast sandwich on a Focaccia instead of a Ciabatta. I regret nothing…

If you’re working in live radio, always remember that timing is everything. So, obviously, don’t decide to take your jacket off four seconds before the travel news finishes… @lbc.co.uk

One more #TheNewsroom here ---> bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... - 📻 @thatdavidharper.bsky.social has the bulletin; also #Trump #Putin #Ukraine #GeorgeFloyd #Gaza

Joined by @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social for @lbc.co.uk News Breakfast yesterday, ahead of his appearance at @hayfestival.bsky.social, with reaction to news that a Government announcement on child poverty is being delayed.

Why have we had so many cyber attacks in the UK recently? I asked @willguyatt.rocks for @itvnews.bsky.social

Don’t stop ‘till you get enough?

Just opened a cook book and saw this. I think it’s a sign…

Little bit of news: I'm delighted to be taking on a more regular slot on LBC News, four years after joining the station. Join me at 7am for Saturday Breakfast from this weekend!

I’ve just seen a Thames Water worker walking down the street with divining rods. Serious question: Is this something water companies actually use to find pipes, or was he just a little alternative in his working methods?

Getting strong Natalie Cole vibes from this today…

Wondering how on earth this ended up on a giveaway bookshelf in North London. It’s now back in the safe hands of a native Gog. (Printed for the 1981 Eisteddfod, in case you’re wondering)

Someone has turned my (semi) viral @itvnews.bsky.social re-christening into a highly collectible figure. Demand for Christmas is expected to be high…

I love a reasonably priced watch that looks smart. Punches above its weight a bit! Impressed with the 1950s chic of this #timex #marlin I got before Xmas. #watchgeek

Selling British Steel in 2016 for £1 to a Chinese firm has complicated options for the future of steelmaking in the UK, @henrimurison.bsky.social tells @thatdavidharper.bsky.social. @np-partnership.bsky.social | @lbcnews.bsky.social
