People are pissed off about every word Laura Kuenssberg says. She could write "Good morning" on Twitter and people would take offence. I'm amazed that with the abuse she gets on there (mostly by people not realising that reporters are there to report things, e.g. writing "Tories looking to get 80 seat majority" does not mean *she* is saying that *she* wants them to get a majority because she hates Corbyn and the NHS and and and), she actually still posts on there.

That Kuenssberg quote is dead accurate, if a little clumsily written, it's a simple statement of facts and portrays her, and indeed other correspondents role in covering UK Politics since the Referendum.

I think she misjudged that one. People looking back have the benefit of hindsight, and if this does all go tits up historians are just as likely to question why a public vote on the future of our country - with which there are many legitimate criticisms of the way it and the campaigns were conducted - has to be sacrosanct yet a public vote on something as trivial as the name of a ship can be overturned.

The way Laura phrased that - and I accept it's an off the cuff programme and she may have misspoken - can be interpreted as implying her own view on the subject.

World News Christmas period: normal unbranded World News for the next ten days. None of the branded programmes will air until 2nd January 2020.

Karin Giannone and Sharanjit Leyl amongst the presenters who’ll cover 24th, 25th and 26th December specifically.

I’m still waiting for my “call-up”.........

Newsday is currently on air as normal, albeit with the relief presenters in both Singapore and London.

Kylie Pentelow only if she gets her voice back...she's got the old laryngitis.

Fingers crossed for Simon McCoy. Although we may see the return of Christmas stalwart, Jane Hill.
