Brilliant original journalism from BBC. How drivers in UK are inadvertently poisoning villagers in India. It’s a must-listen, and should change Gvt policy. Thanks to brilliant @meisel_anna and @CarlJohnston2 listen @BBCSounds bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c14j…

Delighted “Catastrophe at the Academy” is up for the #UKARIAS. We uncovered that bribes were taken for ticketless entry and too few security staff were on duty at the Asake gig that ended with two people dead in the Brixton Academy crush @CarlJohnston2

Look at what these Tate monsters did to my super-talented producer @HayleyMortimer as a result of her simply investigating their cultish leader.. Funny how you went for my female colleague and not me. What cowards.

I wasn’t going to give this any attention… but here’s a taster of the abuse I’ve been receiving today for publishing a story about Andrew Tate. It serves as an important reminder of the hold he has over disillusioned young men & how misogyny runs deep

This thread is sharing some #RMO stories anonymised. They echo exactly what @TheBMA @TheDA_UK found in our survey, amd what @PaulKenyonTV found for Newnight and File on Four.
It is long past these agencies getting away with it. It is long past hosts turning a blind eye.

I take courage in the stories of others. I take my pen and write their stories. Fact checked, and anonymised of course, for not everyone can claim the bravery of those 2 Doctors mentioned in the recent BBC article.

Thunderous skies over rural Lagos, as the chief of a stilt-village shows us round. No doctor has ever visited. They rely on curative herbs from the swamps. We’re investigating the brain drain of Nigerian doctors to the UK. @meisel_anna @BBCfileon4 @BBCNewsnight

Almost 1,4 million people have fled the war into Poland, many of whom passed through the small town of #Przemysl, where this poster of Putin reads "Wanted dead or alive for genocide".
