Excellent work from our colleague @TimGalsworthy, flying the flag for @BGULincoln in today's coverage of the Trump inauguration 🇺🇸📻
Quite the busy day of media appearances so far! I’ve been on @UCBMedia, @bbc5live (with @NickyAACampbell), and @BBCRadioScot to talk about Trump’s inauguration and all things US politics. There’s clearly a collective agreement that I have a face for radio! 📻 🇺🇸

I was up early this morning to talk about Joe Biden’s presidency with Carl Roberts on @BBCRadioWales. Hopefully I sounded somewhat coherent! (Listen from 1:22:35 - bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00272…)
