After 3.5 action-packed years, Thursday was my last day at the Post. Worked with a truly great team but the time has come for pastures anew. The ad for my old London-based role is live and I’m happy to answer any Qs about it.

Celebrating the publication of this very chic novel today. Go support your local bookshop and stockpile ten copies of Bellies by Nicola Dinan before it sells out (it will!!) You will also be introduced to one of modern literature’s funniest cameo characters, her name is Cindy.

Stephie’s reaction today while listening for the first time to our doorstep interview with her former boss

@nicoladinan @MonicaMacSwan @AitkenAlexander

Plus two interviews with US Members of Congress: Republican @claudiatenney on where the GOP goes from here and Democrat @RoKhanna on India’s virus surge

The theme of yesterday's @POTUS inauguration was unity. So we brought together Democratic Congresswoman @Carolyn4GA7 and GOP Rep @DustyJohnson - to see what working across the aisle might look like in practice

The Trump Show is not being renewed for a 2nd season. Here's my recap of some of the President's best moments from the last four years - for @BBCNews

What's in store for President Donald Trump after January 20th? Former White House adviser @OMAROSA would be 'very surprised' if Trump was in a position in 2024 to run again. @BBCWorld @LauraTrevelyan

David Barram was Clinton's GSA Administrator and the man who ascertained Bush's presidential victory in 2000. He tells @BBCWorld that 2020 is totally different and @GSAEmily should recognise President-Elect Biden's victory immediately.

How quickly will the first Americans receive their COVID-19 vaccine? US infectious disease chief Dr Anthony Fauci hopes by the end of December. Watch his interview with @BBCWorld ⤵

Tune into the BBC News Channel/BBC World this evening at 9.30pm UK time for our live interview with Dr Anthony Fauci. We’ll also be speaking to Dr @Atul_Gawande and Prof @neil_ferguson as part of a 30-minute special on what this vaccine means for you.

The glamour of television. Waiting for @trowynt to hoverboard away after her @BBCNewsround rant
