I finally have a legit personal & professional news announcement, and it doubles as a #DecadeinReview #lookback: I am moving to Philadelphia in the new year to join @PhillyInquirer as a digital producer! 10.5 yrs ago, I had just finished an internship w their health desk. 1/?
@PhillyInquirer A lot has happened since then. My 1st FT #journalism job @bkreporter where I burned shoe rubber cultivating love/appreciation of #localnews in my home borough as a reporter/magazine EIC/digital editor for four years, then @bklyner, #freelancer life and, currently, @flipboard. 2/?
@PhillyInquirer @bkreporter @bklyner @Flipboard Leaving @flipboard as breaking news editor is bittersweet. 6 mos turned into 2 yrs thanks to valuable work & amazing colleagues who made a remote newsroom feel interactive & seamless.

@BBCPolitics @BBCNews 1/ I’ve set up a twitter account just for this response. It seems the MSM are not reporting this across far reaching formats. This will gain a lot of traction with the youth vote on social media. We need this to teach the boomers #Election2019 #labour #Conservatives #BorisJohnson
@BBCPolitics @BBCNews 2/ the mothers waking up tomorrow morning, the children eating their cereal, the elderly before reading their morning paper, the factory workers on the TVs in their lunch break, the commuters tuning in on the radio on their drive home. This needs to be heard!
@BBCPolitics @BBCNews 3/ if nothing is done, this message will fade out over the weekend and be completely forgotten, or even worse, not absorbed by Thursday. We have to force the media’s hand on this. Let’s make this tweet from the BBC trend worldwide. To the point where it is newsworthy in itself.

برطانیہ، قبل از وقت انتخابات کے حوالے سے تھریڈ

برطانیہ میں ایک بار پھر عام انتخابات کی آمد آمد ہے۔
اسی سال 12 دسمبر کو قبل از وقت انتخابات کا انعقاد کیا جائے گا اور عوام اپنا رائے حق دہی استعمال کرے گی.

#GeneralElection19 #brexitriots #Urdu @BBCUrdu
برطانیہ میں انتخابات ہر پانچ سال بعد منعقد کئے جاتے ہیں لیکن آنے والے انتخابات، تقریبا چار سال میں تیسرے انتخابات ہوں گے۔
ان انتخابات میں ووٹرز 650 حلقوں سے ممبرز
آف پارلیمنٹ کا چنائو کریں گے۔

#BrexitDay
#GeneralElection19 #urdu
حالیہ انتخابات میں بریگزیٹ ایشو کو سب سے اہم تصور کیا جارہا ہے اور بظاہر ووٹرز اپنا حق رائے دہی بریگزیٹ کے بارے میں ہی سیاسی جماعتوں کے موقف کو دیکھتے ہوئے استعمال کریں گے۔
لیکن کچھ حلقے نیشنل ہیلتھ سروس سے متعلق معاملات کو بھی اہم تصور کررہے ہیں۔

#Election2019 for @VaGenAss is less than 2 weeks away. I have thoughts.

As I wrote for @RVAmag this week, I think #BlueWave is (probably) still cresting, with @vademocrats likely to take back #VAGeneralAssembly

Basic numbers still favor Dems by far. Dem fundraising is good, including record haul for @debrarodmanva; still getting tons of outside $$, as I told @vpm earlier this month

Much mirth & jubilation on the construction site this evening so it was chai, samosa & jalebis too.

I’m no longer amazed at the connection of the ordinary Indian from one end of India with the issue of far-off Kashmir.
In all these months to the run up of #Election2019, building toilets, homes, gas connections, Ayushman Bharat were the hot topics …till Pulwama & Balakot happened.

As they say nothing hits hard as something close home.
My office boy, from Jharkhand lost a cousin & a young carpenter from Uttarakhand lost his uncle in the terror attack.

That grief, that anger brought up so much talk about Kashmir that it caught me by surprise having shamefully assumed that such matters

Thread: Spending #VictoriaDay afternoon playing with some data. Looking at different ways to describe the electorate in Canada. Here's where I've landed so far using statistical clustering. Would appreciate feedback on the description/names. #cdnpoli #elxn43 #Election2019
Data is from a national survey of 2,500 Canadians, May 7 to 13, 2019. #cdnpoli
No party can win without building a coalition of these different groups of voters. The Conservatives will look to the conservatives, right populists, and classic liberals for votes. The Liberals will look to the Cosmopolitan left, classic liberals, and green/left populists.

The single one, most important revelation of this build up to #Election2019 has been -
how little the well educated & the privileged understand the process of governance in our country
Is it ignorance or something visceral that makes some one say-
~Look at the filth on our streets.
Why doesn’t Modi clean it up?~

*Did you ever ask Sonia or MMS to clean your streets?*

~No. But at least they didn’t go on & on about #SwachhBharat

*Since we are inured & insensitive there’s a requirement to create social awareness.
A campaign that makes us aware of the role each one of us should play.*

~Okay. So now I’ve to clean the streets ?!?~

*No. But you can at least take responsibility that the cartons & packaging of your new washing machine doesn’t end up in the empty plot at the end of

#Election2019 will be like no other.
Lutyens Elite have never felt so threatened, as now.
They’ve come on to the battlefield to fight the bitter fight, deceit, treachery, claw, bite, whatever it takes to protect their islands of privilege.

This thread on the Existential War…
In 2006 a senior much known bureaucrat from a long lineage of bureaucrats, with a few books to his credit, surrounded by a fawning audience had declared that there was no country as wonderful as India.
The reasons he put forth had nothing to do with the country’s culture, diversity, history, art, architecture, cuisine but were chillingly cynical as was the grating laughter all round …& have remained with me all these years.

Dear candidate for the 2019 elections in Nigeria. Some with good intentions have been elected, only to realise those in their cabinet only wanted to share money. Do you have the moral standing, vision and ability to persuade such to put the nation’s interest first? #election2019
What will you do about the ability of the average Nigerian to create wealth? Will you remove the obstacles on their path, including policies and practices, knowing that you will by so doing remove those obstacles for yourself, your children and their own children? #election2019
Fellow Nigerian, do you have the character and love for country that we demand of leaders? No one person can change a state or country. If we’re not made of the character we demand of leaders, they may achieve nothing, and the elections may be of no use after all. #election2019

In the context of the Sajjan Kumar conviction in the 1984 genocidal violence against Sikhs, we need to rethink about other incidents of violence that have happened in the country, says Prof. Apoorvanand.
We wish you a #MerryChristmas with the Christian Qawwals of Delhi.
"People look at me and wonder who I really am. I have only one answer for them. I am you," says Bernard Rufus, also known as Sahil Sufi Nizam, a popular singer of Christian Qawwalis.

Yesterday, a rare joint session of both houses of @nassnigeria met and issued resolutions that has set it on a collision course with @AsoRock, and holds important political and economic consequences for #Nigeria as it stares down the barrel of #election2019.
The tension between the 2 most important arms of the FG, both controlled by @OfficialAPCNg, has endured through the tenure of @MBuhari's administration and is consequential for the party, for the wider political state of the country and in driving economic policy.
Federal lawmakers, in passing a vote of confidence in the principal officers of @NGRSenate and @HouseNGR, condemned the “systematic harassment and humiliation by @AsoRock of perceived political opponents, people with contrary opinions including legislators and the judiciary,”
