I've written a piece with @ShiromaTSilva on our @BBCClick investigation with @colinjwright into the use of games by the far-right. This isn't about games creating terrorists. It is about how games, like any other artistic medium, have political power. https://t.co/cZRKAOlWSN

Sir Clive Sinclair has died. I had a very memorable experience in 2010 when we went to visit him in his flat in London for @BBCClick. He was certainly a character.

On this week's @bbcclick can AI-generated faces help fix AI bias? We explore the AI processes gone wrong - shutting people out of their work and other parts of life. On the iPlayer in the UK here: https://t.co/WBLnXQ1ONp or on the BBC's international channels where you are.

Whilst the vast majority of English councils have provided little of nothing so far, @lambeth_council are installing their third low traffic neighbourhood since lockdown. Amazing political will from @clairekholland and her Cabinet colleagues.

Pleased to say work on @lambeth_council's THIRD low traffic neighbourhood will begin on Saturday! Letters should be dropping on people's doormats today. We need transport equity in Lambeth. We need to make our roads safer for those who do not have access to a car 🚶‍♀️🚲🛴👩‍🦽

Great article by my colleague @BBC_Osman about a subtle content change for TikTok. What will be interesting is to see the subjects which work best on the platform. My suspicion is it'll suit humanities more than STEM...

Fascinating report on Saudi Arabia's Cybersecurity industry on this week's @BBCClick from @joetidy - the country is one of the most attacked on earth but as it builds cyber capability can it be trusted? Great access.

My first @BBCClick report is up! I travelled to Saudi Arabia for the country's first global cyber-security forum. The country is opening up and trying to become a big player in cyber sec but with recent accusations of hacking, can we trust the regime?
