Thinking about ULEZ, and how reality gets distorted at the polls. Petrols from the past 17 years are fine, and diesels from the last 7-8. Not at all dismissing big bills for some, but from the radio, it sounds like it’s all about being forced to buy electric, when it’s just not.

Well done @Rebeccasmt , whose investigation into mental health services for children has led to a public inquiry.
And thank you to all those who spoke up and trusted a journalist to fight their fight for change. You know Rebecca will see this through.

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.

I lived through each and every of these 368 days of the war. Been to all deoccupied places. Seen much. Even though, I didn’t recognize how important is the issue @Beltrew covers in her #documentary. Watch it.
Tonight we debuted my first doc “The Body in the Woods” at Kyiv train station. It meant a great deal to me that the people whose lives we followed, who shared the horrors they've gone through, were the first to watch it. Thank you @AKamyshin for hosting us💙💛It goes live 1 March

Truly chilling insights in this investigation by @rebeccasmt (health and science journalist of the year) for the @independent - including an 82-year-old kidney patient on a trolley for 56 hours. How do we save our NHS from this?

And hot on the heels of @Rebeccasmt there’s another… Congrats to @SimonCalder - who else would you trust in the strangest year of travel we’ve known? From all at the @Independent , we’re very proud of you both!

Absolutely thrilled for @Rebeccasmt - she’s maybe the most modest star reporter I’ve known in many years at the @Independent. Continues a great tradition in health reporting. Stands on shoulders of giants.
