Journalist

I have been a Westminster-based political journalist since 2005, when politics was boring, and it has gradually got madder as I worked my way through the Press Association, Western Morning News, Independent on Sunday, MailOnline and The Times.

Radio presenter

Since June 2020, I have presented the mid-morning show on Times Radio, Monday to Friday 10am-1pm, including features like PMQs Unpacked, If I Ruled The World and the hugely popular quiz, Can You Get To No10? I was fourth best radio broadcaster in 2020, behind Clara Amfo, Frank Skinner and Emma Barnett. Listen to Times Radio on DAB, app and smart speaker.

Comedian

A sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2005 with the sketch group Big Day Out (**** The Scotsman) led to a small 14-year break from comedy before my debut stand-up This. Is. Not. Normal. in 2019, during which somebody called an election. My second tour, Who Is In Charge Here?, only had to deal with a war and the collapse of the government. My third tour, Poll Dancer, ended just before someone else called a snap election.
