I’ve been frustrated to see so much of the ongoing story about asylum seekers and the protests against them covered without hearing from those seeking asylum and now being met with hostility and hatred I set out to speak to those directly affected to find out about the impact this is having 👇

It was amazing to speak to Jodie Comer in her first ever interview with @liverpoolecho.co.uk. The superstar Scouser spoke about #28YearsLater, how her Liverpool roots helped charm Hollywood and why she'd still rather see Everton lift the league over her winning an Oscar

Employed a combination of guesswork and wishful thinking to come up with a possible setlist for tonight www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/whats-on/wha...

Unmarked grave of the 'luckiest' man on Titanic found Thomas Patrick Dillon, from Liverpool, was working on the famous ship when it struck an iceberg www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/nostalg...

Liverpool are the champions of England

Lots of job ads talk about rare opportunities, but this is one - I've never enjoyed any job more than being a content editor so if it sounds like you please get in touch jobs.smartrecruiters.com/ReachPlc/744...

Easy to forget what Salah staying means beyond football. A life-affirming piece from Paul McAuley www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

Very proud to be a part of this team www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

2013 was another country. I'm not sure what the era from now to then is called, but it's the end of it

Such sad news. Alex was an inspiration to so many and his mum Sue is one of the loveliest people I've had the pleasure of speaking to as an ECHO reporter. Thoughts with the whole family and everyone who knew Alex www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

Very sad news breaking this evening www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/showbiz...

It's been amazing to cover celebrity and entertainment news for @liverpoolecho.co.uk in 2024. Heres a round up of some of my favourite moments over the past 12 months youtu.be/g7VqX4lhtDc?...

I was at Paul McCartney's second night at Co-Op Live last night, and a special moment among many stayed with me www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/whats-on/rev...

BREAKING: Merseyside Derby called off due to Storm Darragh www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/footba...

Weather permitting, Goodison will host its final league derby today. I spoke to the characters who make a matchday so special about their memories of the wonderful old ground and their feelings about the club moving on

Pretty staggering details in this story. A near-two year trial, 50 tonnes of drugs smuggled into the country - the weight of 30 family cars, 40 tonnes of onions a week to mask the scent of narcotics and up to £7bn in possible earnings. www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

Really enjoyed Disney's new "Beatles '64" documentary. Amazing archive footage of the band is matched with moving modern day interviews and it really does capture how they changed pop culture forever My ⭐⭐⭐⭐ review here ⬇️

A major road in Liverpool is cordoned off this evening - we have updates from the scene www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

A shame it came after we moved across the park but the little parade on Dovedale is great. Laura's deli's tinned fish and posh Spanish crisps game really strong

BREAKING: Police have closed a section of Lime Street after a Stagecoach bus has crashed into the back of an Arriva bus Updates from @benhaslm.bsky.social www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

On the streets of Liverpool, there is a humanitarian crisis A perfect storm of problems means more and more people are finding themselves homeless & sleeping rough & it’s getting worse - it’s a situation playing out across the country A difficult 🧵 on what I’ve found reporting on this situation

Three people were arrested after a woman was found dead. @oliviawilliams29.bsky.social and @benhaslm.bsky.social with what we know so far

This is a great opportunity if you've ever wanted to be a journalist but worry you don’t have the right experience or qualifications www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

The Vernon is high on the list of best pubs in the city and possibly the most underrated - @danhaygarth1.bsky.social is always in there but still found something new www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

Thought I'd use this Sunday morning to share some recent work. At the start of this month, I spoke to Roy Heaney. Roy signed for Liverpool at 15 and enjoyed a career in football and rugby league. But he now has been diagnosed with early-onset dementia, which he believes is a result of his career

Nile Rodgers is loved all over the world but there's something about his music that particularly connects with a Liverpool crowd. It was great to interview the musician about his career and memories from visiting the city for @liverpoolecho.bsky.social ahead of CHIC's show at the end of the month

First look at Liverpool Christmas Markets 2024 as they open www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/whats-on/foo...

I've written about a great example of what I'd call TV that's good, but that you can still watch while having your tea www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/news-op...

Love a full moon over Liverpool

One of my favourite pieces of longer-form Echo journalism in recent years, by Charlotte Hadfield. I never knew it came from spotting an old advert and a number she thought wouldn't still work... but she rang it, and it did www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

A powerful piece from Ben, who excels at longer form news interviews. With a story like this great images really do it justice and Iain Watts (not sure he's on here!) delivered as ever

A disturbing case from Liverpool Crown Court today. We can only name Kevin Biji because of a successful application by @adameverett.bsky.social who argued it was in the public interest that he be identified www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

A clean slate, then. I'm exec editor at the Liverpool Echo and this seems like as good a place as any to share the work our team does in covering the city. Will try and explain some of the process and decisions behind what we do as well...
