I’m pleased to announce that today I start in my new role as editor of @princealbertnow. I’ll definitely miss reporting on the court and crime beat full time, but this is a big step forward and I can’t wait to get started.

Excited to be joining the @FortMacToday team! What are the chances it warms up a little by the time I get there? 😂👀
