Sunak rightly condemned being labelled a “P*ki”. That he didn’t use his time as PM to condemn other instances of racism, against other minorities, who don’t have his privileges, for politically expedient reasons, is one of his biggest failings in office. https://t.co/fgZmeywOUR

I’ll admit it — I hate awards, especially the self nominated ones run by media cartels (you know who I mean). But we didn’t nominate @Hardeep_Matharu for the editor’s editor in this year’s British Society of Magazine Editors Awards. But boy does she deserve it. @BylineTimes

Proud of this pamphlet - our dysfunctional media is at the heart of so many UK policy failures from austerity to Palestine. As @Hardeep_Matharu puts it: "all too often, journalism in Britain operates as an extension of power rather than a check on it"
🚨New Pamphlet🚨 How do we improve standards in our media ecosystem? In this new pamphlet, edited by @IggyWood, journalists & policy experts assess the media landscape, setting out recommendations for government to protect press freedoms at home and abroad.
