Awful scenes in Liverpool. A car has collided with Liverpool fans celebrating their Premier League victory. Thoughts are with anyone caught up in this.

I love the idea of a board supporting their manager & looking to the future. It's refreshing. But Evatt has lost the backing of the most fans. The players are not performing; many of the players have lost the backing of the fans. Next, it will be the board unless they act. #bwfc

Enjoyed sharing my thoughts at the Association For Journalism Education Winter Conference today.

My presentation looked at how those working in both industry and academia can play a massive role in bridging the gap between #academia and #industry. It was great to hear from other speakers too.

That's my #news reading at BBC 5-Live done for 2024. Looking back, I've covered some big stories over the last 12 months, and these last three days haven't eased up, ending with breaking the news about the death of #JimmyCarter. Time for a break before returning in 2025.
