@nmdacosta @BBCr4today I think you're right Nikki. I had no idea (and frankly I am one of the better informed on this subject) and the producers didn't either. We need to tackle these issues fairly but not from the 'everyone calm down' perspective that fails to note who is violent and who is not.

@SteveChalke @BBCr4today Thanks for replying Steve. Will get in touch privately but worth saying publicly the BBC and other responsible organisations cut their ties with Stonewall because of this kind of claim - widely challenged for instance here

Stonewall School Report: What Does The 45% Attempted Suicide Rate Really Mean? - Transgender Trend

The Stonewall School Report serves to conceal the attempted suicide rates for girls and young women, and covers up the increasing disappearance of lesbians.

"the audience for downloads is still dwarfed by the number of people who tune in to national radio stations in their millions." Well I never. Perhaps yoofs get older and listen to the radio.... and deserve it to be resourced in the future.

Any families recently affected by a type one diabetes diagnosis -- tell the child @Sladey_10 has it. And watch him on the sports bit of the news tonight. @JDRFUK . It'll be cured one day but until then you can be wonderful with it. #IREvENG

One of the most decent humane reporters of his generation. Also: top guy. Never met anyone who dislikes him which in our business is ……..unusual

I’ve got some personal news. After an amazing time reporting for the BBC since 1983, I’ve decided to leave for new ventures. From Belfast to Brussels and Antarctica to the Amazon, it’s been an incredible journey. 1/3

This lovely review picks up on the fact that the star of the show - of my show, of all shows - was mum. My mother. Perhaps yours. Lord how they matter ...

Justin Webb found out who his biological father was while watching TV

Justin Webb, who is the longest-serving presenter on the Today programme, shares key moments from his life in a memoir. Among memoirs is a birthday where his mum's husband frightened everyone.

Happy 60th Birthday ⁦ @BowenBBC ⁩ - fearless war correspondent & even more fearless lunch combatant. The word ‘legend’ is over-used in the world of journalism, but Jeremy is a living, breathing, bomb-ducking, bullet-dodging one. Have a good one mate. 👍

The paperback is now out. At a time when the Middle East is once again in turmoil, immodestly I suggest you take a look at my book to see how the region ended up the way it is. Also available as an audiobook.

Why would people ‘judge’ families trying to get a break and now facing added difficulties. Only on twitter - in the ordinary kindly world there’ll just be sympathy

Got to feel for Shapps and everyone who went there with the green light now looking at a 14 day quarantine. I know you’ll all judge, say it’s their own fault, they knew the risks etc but maybe for once, I dunno, don’t judge.
