    What a mess. The BBC has hired 800 ‘agents’ to hunt down over-75’s to pay for the TV licence. How should the BBC be funded? @talkRADIO #EarlyBreakfast

    I’m in the media but I’m yet to understand the clamour by some of my colleagues for ministers to speculate on dates that things will return to normal. We’ve been told time and again what the plan is. That plan is being rolled out as data becomes available. The end.

    If Boris goes, there’s a big chance #Brexit goes too. Prepare for an almighty political scrap if he’s forced out.

    A very sad day today. We said goodbye to my trusty hound Barnaby. He was 15 1/2 years old. With much sadness but with huge thanks to all the lovely people we met along the way and the special memories we’ll treasure… we say farewell to this handsome and friendly doggo.

    This is all very well but full disclosure is necessary. Dave Carr is a union activist. Of course he’ll criticise the government and their handling of the pandemic. It undermines the argument.
    'Our intensive care units are stretched beyond breaking.' ICU nurse Dave Carr speaks candidly about the impact the rise in Covid cases are having in hospitals. He tells @piersmorgan and @susannareid100 that the situation is 'harrowing' and it's 'breaking NHS workers'.

    The #SupremeCourtuk has made a terrible decision. Our democratic system is failing and yet they think an unelected court may interfere in government business.

    Good news… the battle against Omicron is going well. But you may need a fourth jab. Where do you draw the line? @talkRADIO #Breakfast

    This is an extraordinary interview. To those who love Meghan, it’s everything they want to hear. ‘Her’ truth. For the rest of us it’s a narcissist, raking in cash, off the back of the institution she walked away from. Whilst being tone deaf to the problems many face.
    Presenting our Fall Fashion issue cover star: Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex. She’s left the Firm behind. Harry’s found a polo team in Santa Barbara. The kids are doing great. Now she's ready for her own next act. @AllisonPDavis reports: thecut.io/3wBQut0

    Poor Barnaby! He’s been buffeted by #StormDennis

    There’s a lot of noise over this interview. In my opinion @chrisrankin explains it better when he says ‘when a trans person says they are male or female, that is what they are and that is how we should treat them. It is damaging to them to say otherwise.’
    Campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen and James Max clash over the issue of 'sex-based rights' and JK Rowling's 'trans-row'. James: "I am slightly staggered by your views." Campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen: "What? That biological sex exists." @thejamesmax

    As doctors threaten to go on strike over plans to increase face to face appointments. Do you have sympathy with GP’s? @talkRADIO #EarlyBreakfast
