Really sad to hear of the death of Frank Field. He came into my school in Birkenhead to give a talk about public service that inspired me. It ended up with me choosing journalism as a career, which I'm glad about (even if it didn't help my bank balance) theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

It's not everyday that the Prime Minister of Barbados makes a personal response to one's story. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…

This was the scene when City Journalism's very own Tim Utzig (and Danny) crossed the 25m mark in last weekend's #LondonMarathon . The love from his friends incl. CharlieB and Tim's family, who flew over from the USA especially for the occasion, was something quite special.
