Nigel Morris, former political editor of the Daily Mirror, the Independent and the i newspaper, was guest speaker at Birmingham Press Club’s first celebrity luncheon held since the start of the Covid-19 outbreak. A former Birmingham Post political correspondent, Nigel discussed his 30-year career in a Q&A session with Press Club president Bob Warman before being installed as an honorary life member and presented with the club’s traditional bugle, crafted by famous Birmingham-based Acme Whistles. Amazon UK sponsored the event, which was held at Park Regis Birmingham.
