Without wishing to seem ungrateful for a gift, it’s a bit patchy, isn’t it?
Hope you guys over in the UK enjoy the tree this year 😊 This is the 79th time the City of Oslo sends a Christmas tree to London as a thank-you for the help during the Second World War.

This is the 7th fiscal event we at @OpiniumResearch have asked the same set of questions about: 48% saying this is a bad budget is the highest since the 2022 mini-Budget (61%).
From @MrJCrouch: Reeves has delivered the worst-received fiscal event since the mini-budget (again) conservativehome.com/2025/12…

A thought provoking article about the state of higher education. Heard similar stories in the UK.
Today in Current Affairs, professor Ron Purser exposes how AI's destruction of the university is even worse than you think, and goes well beyond students cheating with ChatGPT: currentaffairs.org/news/ai-i…

Popping up to say that I’ve started a @substack NOT about comms. Instead, my niche hobby of collecting radioactive objects. Please consider subscribing 🙏 open.substack.com/pub/radium…

There was something very odd in the PM’s speech last night - something which infuses RE in the primary school curriculum too: the idea that everyone in this country is religious in one way or another, when we know from polls that over half the population is not religious. 1/7

I missed this members event.
Communications teams at the other museums and galleries get so envious of us at the National Trust. You just can’t pull in headlines like this at the Tate or V&A.

One day, this student loan bubble is going to burst when totals get written off. Also, I do recall teachers pushing a Uni education and downplaying the loan impact - it’s all a scandal really. Thanks for sharing your figures @laurapurkess
I know this is nothing new, but I just checked my student loan and it's just comically absurd - I've been charged 3x as much interest as I've paid off so far this year; my total loan is almost £10k bigger than when I left university. Completely futile @SF_England

Twitter wasn’t always like this. At Uni it connected me with the PR community, it helped me gain work exp/jobs, and it was a genuine delight chatting. 16 years later, it’s a different story. See you on Threads instead as michaelwhite1. 👋

Intel co-founder Gordon Moore has passed away at the age of 94. He predicted Moore's Law, that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit doubles about every two years. He helped define a key era of the tech industry

Today, we lost a visionary. Gordon Moore, thank you for everything.

On Friday, the sun put on a dazzling show for us. My friend @TheVastReaches and I worked hard over the last 5 days to produce this incredibly detailed 140 megapixel image to illustrate how wonderfully dynamic and beautiful our star can be. Make sure you zoom in!

I'm shocked, sad and disappointed about the closure of @dpreview. Shocked as you always are when a leader falls. Sad for the staff who've done an amazing job over its lifetime and the readers who loved their work. And disappointed in Amazon who surely could archive the content.
