This is the legend that is Jim Ireland, our camera operator. Without his knowledge, skill, experience and hard work we wouldn't be able to tell the stories of the people we meet. A top bloke too.
To Jim and all the camera operators...we salute you

In a quiet very British, no need for klaxons, understated way, this is happening 👇🏾and I'm very much looking forward to working with an excellent bunch of talented people.

our new London reporter. After 15 years in the capital Paul loves its quirks and understands its issues. He’s worked for the BBC and Sky and will be seeking out people in all of London’s communities to tell their stories in a fresh, GB News way.
Incredibly powerful, moving shocking, testimony from

who's made serious allegations about big names in cricket like David Lloyd, Alex Hales and Tim Bresnan. Uncomfortable but necessary for cricket to listen

A profoundly moving 2 wks. Lucky to be heading home to my family. Wish the brave, strong, resilient, Ukrainians could. They don't know when they'll see their fathers, sons, husbands, brothers & uncles. Been a privilege to hear & share their stories & struggle

It’s sad to hear that actor Dennis Waterman has died at the age of 74. A familiar face on our screens for generations. His role as Terry McCann alongside George Cole’s Arthur Daley in ITV’s Minder is part of television folklore. A much loved show and rightly so. RIP Dennis.

I can verify this first-hand. 2nd choice is (generally speaking) Germany and so on. Maybe as the crisis deepens, and neighbouring countries struggle to accommodate, the UK will become a more attractive destination
It may be an unpalatable fact for some but most Ukrainian refugees want to move to a neighbouring country - typically Poland - rather than the UK.
They live in hope of a prompt return to their homeland.
The dedication of NHS staff cannot be over-stated...

My station,
@GBNEWS
, is less than a year old & we operate on a tight budget.
That said, I could not be more proud of what
@paulejhawkins
is doing for our viewers & listeners.
This will be an interesting test for GB News – the fall of Afghanistan affects thousands of British families in many different ways, but with no foreign desk or international correspondents – will they even cover this massive story happening abroad?
If you want the media to cover lockdown protests, this👇🏾doesn't help and yes it's a minority but that's all it takes to keep reporters away and put the public off.
Hope you're ok
@nicholaswatt
Absolutely horrifying footage of thugs going after the Newsnight's Nick Watt - one of the loveliest people in journalism - at a small anti lockdown protest outside Number 10.
Watch how vile and intimidating they get. In broad daylight. Genuinely shocking.
My last weekend with this absolute gent,

Seriously, they are two great TV journalists, at your service!

. Yesterday I was looking for parking, asked a cab driver, he said "follow me in your car"...so I did....took me to one car park (which was then full) and then led me to another (successfully parked). Little things. We CAN be awesome. Easy to forget. Ted talk over.
He was an amazing broadcaster and friend.
Funny, warm, smart and charismatic.
It was a privilege to have shared the airwaves with you Julian
I will always miss you

The word "legend" (so often over-used) doesn't do him justice. Greater than football. Greater than sport. An icon. An entertainer. A genius. And a thoroughly nice man.
