Oops I did it again. Rafaella Ruth Eden, born Dec 2. Looking forward to the first proper maternity leave of my life, although it feels weird to clock off in this era of politics and battle of the cultures 🍼🐣✨

This is horrifying.
Where are the headlines? This mother in Iran is about to be hanged and I really feel helpless seeing silence from the big names, the anti-war activists in the West, the feminist leaders, the so-called free world leaders. Her only “crime”? Fighting for freedom and dignity for her

I reported on the, in my view fascinating, rising phenomenon of people cancelling social obligations - with people divided over whether it’s the healthy prioritisation of personal needs or selfish behaviour without consideration for others https://t.co/fCNAR6s7qf

Proud to sign this letter with so many Guardian and Observer colleagues, from reporters to production editors to some of the UK’s most popular columnists. Will the Scott Trust stop and reflect on the fact it’s lost the confidence of its journalists?
