I'm not saying this definitely did happen to me but hypothetically that'd be pretty bad.

If you think you're having a tough day, at least you didn't go on a company away day with your new colleagues, fail to get off at the agreed stop and then press your face against the glass like a sad dog as you wave goodbye to the entire senior management of the Observer.

RT @Gabriel_Pogrund: Jaw dropping reporting by @chloehadj. I can also say, having read the book while hiking last year, that the knowledge….

RT @ObserverUK: Penniless and homeless, Raynor and Moth Winn found fame with The Salt Path: the story of their 630-mile walk to salvation.….

From allegations of embezzlement to big question marks over a supposed terminal brain disease, and a string of innocent people left behind on the author's path to fame and fortune. Read the full, wild story of The Real Salt Path here:

📚🤯 Incredible, bonkers @chloehadj investigation - the 'true' heartwarming literary phenomenon The Salt Path is really a story of lies and deceit. The book's sold 2m+ copies and is now a major film. But the real story behind it is so much darker. ⬇️ WATCH from @ObserverUK

@SamCoatesSky And it means leaving Sky after 10 years. From the (absurdly) fresh-faced kid launching Ridge of Sunday with @SophyRidgeSky to chasing @BethRigby around Kyiv. There's so many brilliant reporters, crews, editors + producers who I've been very lucky to work with along the way ♥️

It is the end of my beautiful relationship with @SamCoatesSky. Sam's one of the best in the business and I'm v proud of our work together - award-winning investigations and somehow preventing him getting trenchfoot. He's been the most fun, generous partner and a fantastic mate.

(Personal) reshuffle news: very excited to be joining the Observer relaunch as the Head of ObserverTV. The world's oldest Sunday newspaper is leaping into the digital age and expanding into video. We're going to build something great. Lots more updates to come!.

After a 52 year reign, Alan Beith is no longer the winner of the tightest by-election in modern history. Berwick-upon-Tweed 1973 looks like a turgid landslide now.

Tweeting you are 'very confident' you have won an election while driving laps to avoid the cameras suggests you might not, in fact, be very confident you've won.

🗳️ Recount in Runcorn with Reform ahead by just 4 votes. That would be by far the closest by-election in modern history

Incredible 2am stat from @michaelthrasher: out of 10 defences so far, Labour has only held 2. Both of them by a SINGLE vote.

Reform taking seats from Labour and Tories. Seems like we'll be seeing a lot more of this in the hours ahead. @SamCoatesSky live on Sky with all the drama and @_BvdM smashing out charts.

It is VERY early in the night but hoo boy, the first results look like we might be seeing a big shift in British politics

Keir Starmer refuses to commit to @SamCoatesSky that govt's fiscal rules won't be changed in aftermath of Trump tariffs fallout. PM says it's not the "first thing we'll now do" but doesn't rule out they could be changed.

RT @SamCoatesSky: 😡 Not hard to find some cross Labour MPs this morning at the prospect of yet further emergency welfare cuts and the gener….

We're trying something new and VERY high tech for PMQs today. You can now watch the scrap between Keir Starmer and Kemi Badenoch with a live @SamCoatesSky.commentary. Hear what Sam thinks matters, what really doesn't and ask him your q's.

RT @SamCoatesSky: It’s official! . I’m delighted that @annemcelvoy is permanent host of our early morning briefing podcast. One of the be….

This is a great story about the huge rows plaguing the UK's planning system and the costs to taxpayers. AND it's a film that was so punishingly cold to make that it nearly killed @SamCoatesSky and I spent two days in bed with man flu afterwards.
