Thank you @EditorsUK for naming @Telegraph's 'Ukraine: The Latest' their 'Podcast of the Year.'
It was a happy but bittersweet moment, as @DomNicholls and I felt someone was missing up there on stage.
David, wherever you are: this one's for you.

🚨This is the story of how UK & EU goods are STILL going into Russia in vast quantities, despite sanctions.
Of how the economic war waged by the G7 is failing.
Of how I witnessed sanctions rules broken in plain sight.
But above all else it’s the story of a chart... 🧵

In the last 24 hours, two of our leading media sources (NYT & WSJ) have produced research pieces with hard data on why the U.S. should ban TikTok.

Your periodic reminder that England, a windswept nation with more potential for onshore wind power than almost anywhere else in the world (other than Scotland), banned new onshore wind farms in 2017.

This is broadly the picture across pollsters right now, but important not to forget how unprecedented this is. In 1997, Tories still led on some key issues (economy, Europe). Today, they lead on no issues and are far behind on the ones people care most about.

There have been questions about the involvement of lawyers in the #postofficescandal.
The evidence of Warwick Tatford, the barrister who prosecuted Seema Misra @SeemaMisra7, at the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry was especially eye-opening and shocking.
A thread.

I think I have found a genuine story in @NadineDorries's book, The Plot, out today. It concerns manoeuvrings to get the “right” person in to chair the supposedly independent media regulator, @ofcom (thread) (1/9 )
