TV producer Rob Burley was 52 and had just lost his job at the BBC when he received his diagnosis four years ago. He reveals its impact — and what awaits him ⬇️ thetimes.com/life-style/hea…
What an extraordinarily brave and perceptive piece @RobBurl - one to put many angsts and midlife war into proportion. It’s brilliantly written . Do you read it.

Along with the love and support of @HDBrighton and the burden of it for her and for my two boys, I am lucky to have had the means to get physio. It’s vital but is a Cinderella service on the NHS. Thank you to @helenvweaver at @npennyclinic for their expertise and cake.

An extraordinarily powerful read from my friend Rob whose mind is sharper than ever. You can listen to his thoughts on how politicians should navigate a media interview in this week’s @PolInsideOut hosted by me and @JonAshworth

These pieces very much focus on the personal experience. This misses out the price paid and love given by others. Especially, in my case and life @HDBrighton who knows what it means to have a partner with PD. thetimes.com/article/3953a3…
I found out I had Parkinson’s at 52. It was like being coshed thetimes.com/article/3953a3…
It’s Party Conference season so politicians will be all over the TV. So how should a politician pull off a good interview? @RobBurl - political producer and author of Why is this Lying Bastard Lying to Me - tells @PolInsideOut how to communicate well. 🎧 open.spotify.com/episode/5avxjb…
Hard to disagree. Who signed it off?
No words for the “refresh” - I mean there are words but I won’t use them. Very good of Vicki Young to go on and defend it. She won’t have made the (bad) decisions to ruin the whole thing.

Rob Burley, political producer and author of Why is this Lying Bastard Lying to Me on why politicians struggle to be authentic on the media and the one politician who owns authenticity. Listen now to @PolInsideOut with @GloriaDePiero and @JonAshworth. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/pol…
I really enjoyed this and think we got somewhere on the issues around our dysfunctional political TV culture.

Why have they turned Politics Live into a chat show?! #PoliticsLive
Always love tuning into @BBCPolitics Politics Live and Vicki Young is great but that new studio layout is dreadful and lazy .. the host is now removed from the action and out of shot. She needs to be the heart of the show and in control. Bring back the big table!

🤦
A successful programme unashamedly about politics has been abandoned for what appears to be a rehash of the dreadful Politics Show. The big table that made Politics Live flow and spark is gone and it’s back to boring as usual. Hope I’m wrong. What a shame. bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/20…
Love this. Loved Robert Redford.
Splitters!
