Shocking testimony from this Israeli soldier on the mindset he witnessed during the Gaza war “A lot don't draw the line between terrorists & civilians” A widespread view: “The kids we spared in the war in 2014, are now the terrorists that did Oct 7th” youtu.be/Aa-VDAjL8vM?si…
As the government is set to water down the no fault eviction ban, it's worth remembering thousands of people are evicted each week. Many see their lives upended, some are left homeless. I spoke to some of them for @BylineTimes: bylinetimes.com/2024/04/22/no-…
EXCL: Departing Tory MPs have started taking on millions of pounds in second jobs and taking dozens of lobbyist-funded trips abroad. Some MPs are now spending a week each month away from Westminster on second jobs. My @ObserverUK / @guardian scoop: theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
EXCLUSIVE sewage scandal update! You probably thought you knew the story by now. I’m sorry to say it’s worse than that. Four whistleblowers told me some shocking stuff…. Read on…. theguardian.com/environment/20…
The new @BylineTimes will soon be in shops. Includes top investigations and reports from - @AndrewKersley on the grooming victims groomed by the far right - @RosieHolt on Sunak's masterful appointment of Jonathan Gullis - My interview with @sundersays on the failing culture wars
Proud of this new edition of @BylineTimes: 🔴 Investigating the far-right grooming of survivors of child sexual abuse (a national crisis) to further anti-Muslim hate 🔴 The shameful scandal of how people with learning disabilities are treated in Britain in the 21st Century
I wrote for @ComputerWeekly about the big tech's slow plan to take over the AI indsutry: computerweekly.com/feature/Big-te…
Forgot to mention my @TheHouseMag investigation on parents wrongly getting prosecuted for (often sick) children not attending school got a write-up in the @guardian with @rachela_hall: theguardian.com/education/2024…
Parents are being wrongly convicted when their children can't attend school because of illness, sexual exploitation or more. It's being caused by a new 'fast track' form of trial, where judges make rulings on cases in just seconds. Me for @TheHouseMag politicshome.com/thehouse/artic…
A huge rise in service fees for leasehold and shared ownership properties – sometimes of tens of thousands of pounds – has led to a record rise in tenants choosing to go on rent strike. My @BylineTimes story: bylinetimes.com/2024/04/10/tra…
“Whoever you are, whatever your circumstances, you should be able to get justice” On the 35th anniversary, I spoke to Hillsborough survivor @IanByrneMP and @ElkanAbrahamson for @BylineTimes about a planned law banning officials from lying to enquiries bylinetimes.com/2024/04/15/the…
Imagine having to walk through leaking raw sewage every day to get to your flat. That was the reality for one set of One Housing Group leaseholders, one group of many calling out the housing association's serious mismanagement. My @insidehousing story: insidehousing.co.uk/news/residents…
Ramzy is one of the best editors to work with, and all the reporters at oD's news team have been producing gold standard investigative journalism for months. Seeing they've been let go today is heartbreaking.

EXCL: US healthcare giants that have received billions in fines for fraud and poor practice have been winning hundreds of millions in contracts to run NHS kidney care. My report for @novaramedia: novaramedia.com/2024/04/02/us-…
EXCL: Ministers met landlord lobbyists twice as much as renters groups in the build up to indefinitely delaying a ban on no fault evictions. The move was hailed as a "huge win" by landlords after "extensive lobbying" efforts. My scoop for @politicshome politicshome.com/news/article/m…
The government's "independent" advisor of political violence is open about the fact that his work as an arms-trade lobbyist has hardened his views against the right to protest. My profile of Lord Walney/John Woodcock: novaramedia.com/2024/03/20/mee…
Wrote about the IEA thriving in a post Truss world for @PrivateEyeNews... But if you want to know about their fleet street network, dodgy donors and how it all links to The Times and Matt Chorley, then you're going to need to grab a copy in print.

👇Great @AndrewKersley article in yesterday’s @ObserverUK on the risk of retiring MPs checking out early and using their remaining time in Parliament to line up new jobs or enjoy jollies paid for by foreign governments. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Former justice secretary Brandon Lewis has taken on *five* part time jobs alongside (supposedly) being an MP - worth £410,000 a year on top of his salary, the Observer reports today
Outgoing Tory MPs take lucrative second jobs, ‘swan off on jollies’. For part-time work: 34 MPs, £2.5m; 11 MPs £100,000 each; Sajid Javid, £321,000; Kwasi Kwarteng £98,600; Dominic Raab, £118,000. Millions more to come. Rewards for serving corporations. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

Ok just seen the front pages about 'sicknote culture'. These arguments are just full of holes. Yes we should care about work and health, but top priority should be helping people *out of work already* not those who take time off sick. First on Fit Notes, this is data since 2019:
