In November 2023, police found the decayed corpse of Tracey Turnell in Walthamstow Market.
She had no phone, job, passport, friends or lovers. There wasn’t a single photo of her.
I pieced together who she was and who was responsible for @_TheLondoner

“The period of mass migration has coincided with an unprecedented drop in violent crime. Never have our streets never been more racially mixed, its true. But seldom have they been safer to walk down.”

It's not just the exploitation of a tragedy.
JD Vance's picture of Britain - where migrants have led to a crime surge - is the opposite of the truth.

Sheffield is full of people with great stories to tell.
Not all of them get the chance.
If we reach 1,000 members, we’ll launch a new writers’ programme.

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.

In the @NewStatesman, Andrew Marr says it’s “a win for the north, and Britain’s resurgent non-metropolitan journalism” that our reporting is being read in Westminster.

Yesterday I got my first ever paper copy of the #Sheffield Tribune (@sheffieldtrib)! Normally it’s delivered by email, but they celebrated their fifth birthday last week and to mark the occasion they’ve put together a brilliant limited edition physical copy of their work 🤩

Read this. As a former cub reporter on the Sheffield Telegraph - I failed my probation at the first attempt - I can only admire the great work of @sheffieldtrib and wish them the best for the @PrivateEyeNews Paul Foot Award.
I won that a while back.
Must have been a mistake.
