Well done to The National @scotnational.bsky.social for printing the “Not for Publication” attempt by #mandelson to use @ipso.co.uk to prevent being approached or photographed for coverage of the story of his connections with #epstein

Speaking in Brighton this PM, Zack Polanski has announced that Green Party of England & Wales membership is now over 170,000 - which means over 100,000 people have joined the party since his election in September

Had great support from #CommunityFibre over the last few years. Until the beginning of Nov there’s a deal on their website for double speed. I now have a home broadband of 5Gbps 🥳 - They are also really easy to reach and communicate with by phone, unlike some other providers.

We had technical problems with some @sennheiserofficial.bsky.social #microphones now out of warranty. The support from the team at #Sennheiser in Germany was amazing and they have done everything they can to resolve the issue with a great understanding of how vital good #audio is to TV news.

The #journalists killed today by Israel’s “double-tap” hospital attack in #Gaza: Mariam Abu-Daqqa - @apnews.com Hossam Al-Masri - @reuters.com Mohammed Salama - @aljazeera.com Moaz Abu Taha Ahmed Abu Aziz Wounded: Hatem Khaled - @reuters.com

Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif captured the most harrowing #Gaza images before Israel killed him. His nephew, photographer Musab Al-Sharif, initially incorrectly reported as having died in the attack has vowed to continue his work www.instagram.com/musab_alshar... facebook.com/ms.b.alshryf...

EVENT: “Israel, Stop Killing Journalists - NUJ London Freelance Branch Vigil” 13 August 2025, 5.30pm at Downing Street. #StopKillingJournalists #NUJ #Gaza @nujofficial.bsky.social @nujlfb.bsky.social

Deeply shocked by Israel’s deliberate killing of the Al Jazeera correspondent Anas al-Sharif, his colleague Mohammed Qreiqeh and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal and Moamen Aliwa. Israel has now killed at least 186 journalists in this war.

For Thames Water #vulnerable customers specifically registered on #priorityservicesregister here is their Priority Services Register emergency contact number which we couldn’t find on their website (due to broken links) #ThamesWater PSR emergency: 08000094544 #disability #Water

Huge #water supply outage in N London tonight but #thameswater #vulnerable customers support is a joke. #Disabled #PSR custs with no water can’t get through on the phone line, the WhatsApp is down & no replies on their Facebook chat. We are tempted to wake the 24hr press officer.

Anas Al-Sharif was one of the most remarkable reporters of his generation. For 673 days, he defied Israeli threats to kill him. Al Jazeera now confirm their crew in Gaza City have all been assassinated: RIP reporters Anas Al-Sharif & Mohammed Qareqea and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher & Mohammed Nofal

Some of the most harrowing images we have seen from #Gaza were taken by #anasalsharif He brought light to what was happening on the ground there and he will be remembered for showing the world the reality of what has been happening in #Palestine

Israel plans to occupy Gaza City in north of Gaza Strip, army would first force civilians to evacuate to central strip areas in coordination with US, Israeli forces there would establish temporary civilian infrastructure.-Israel's Ch 12

In a new post on X @johnsimpsonnews.bsky.social has expressed his support for the local journalists covering the story in #Gaza “I’ve got the greatest respect for the many journalists in Gaza who have reported bravely and often at the cost of their own lives to show us what’s happening there…”

If you are a #journalist #photojournalist or work in another role in the media please sign this. International media must be allowed to report from #Gaza - We also respect the local media in Gaza who are targeted for shooting the footage & images that the world’s media are using daily.

However on your main point we agree that the world’s media also needs to be allowed into Gaza. We hope you will consider the various comments from other media about the wording of your post and hope you do consider the local journalists risking their life as honest and unbiased.

Because reporting, footage & photojournalism is done by people who live in Gaza this does not mean that it isn’t “honest, unbiased eyewitness reporting” it’s a terrible slur on the work that local journalists have been doing while being targeted & killed to suggest otherwise.

🔺 Update: Israel’s senior leaders were locked in a row last night over Binyamin Netan­yahu’s plan to expand the war in Gaza and “fully occupy” the territory

This is an amazing read about historian #JeanPierreFiliu and how he entered #Gaza #Palestine to discover and document exactly what was happening on the ground. His book, currently available in French is available to purchase at: arenes.fr/livre/un-his...

A week after we posted about the #Barclays bank app failing to work in #iOS 26 Dev beta 3 they updated the app and fixed the infinite verification loop / version error. Exercise caution ⚠️ when using dev betas as it’s always possible that an essential app may break and not be fixed this quickly.

Latest #Apple #iOS 26 Dev Beta 3 kills the #Barclays #banking app. Causes it to get stuck at the pin / Face ID login screen and then demands a non-existent Barclays app update. Barclays are aware of this and working on a fix apparently.

Just received this tshirt in the post from @wearthepeace.bsky.social - As journalists we will be proud to wear it to show solidarity with #journalists who have lost their lives in #Gaza #Palestine

Like @owenjones.bsky.social We also have #ADHD There are a surprising number of #neurodivergent journalists, artists & others. Many ppl find their #neurodiversity challenging but a positive trait. Some take meds which can really help, some choose not to. Don’t be #ableist Judge people on their work

Care should be exercised before getting too carried away with the claim tonight that Zarah Sultana MP is starting a new political party with Jeremy Corbyn. It’s probably best to wait for confirmation of the story from JC before getting too excited. @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social

Insane GC criticism of BBC News person who wrote teleprompter script for writing “pregnant people”. Err it’s a direct quote from Dr Malcolm Mistry @lshtm.bsky.social “…for people aged over 65, infants, pregnant people, and those with pre-existing health conditions.” www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/n...

A plug for developer Thorsten Lemke who’s been developing GraphicConverter app for Mac for 30yrs. This tool from Lemkesoft has helped #photojournalist & photographers convert & fix images that otherwise would be unusable. Amazing support and product! Lemkesoft.de

The only downside with being journalists with an compulsive desire for accuracy is the thing where we have to delete and repost posts because we spot a typo… Grammar and punctuation on the other hand sometimes slip through… 😉

If you can please support @harriest.bsky.social and @1team1fight.bsky.social who do important work helping forces on the frontline in #Ukraine receive vital equipment they need. Their work has also enabled a number of international #journalists to report on Russia’s war on Ukraine.

We support Owen Jones. It’s clear to anyone that his reasoned posts, comments and articles on Instagram and elsewhere do not violate any of the community standards. Whatever your viewpoint on his opinions (which we generally agree with) they don’t break any platform rules. @owenjones.bsky.social

To us it seems like Colonel Susan Meyers was the person doing their duty in an impartial professional manner particularly when her base has Danish and Greenlander staff. JD Vance was the one at the base being partisan, provoking #Greenland and #Denmark 🇩🇰 #susanmeyers
