A truly enriching book, beautifully written throughout. Huge respect for Rebekah Pierre and every other brilliant table-turner who made this happen 🌟✊

43 years ago, 48 young people went to a nightclub in Artane & never came home.

Anyone who grew up on the Northside in the 1980s remembers that day. It’s disgraceful the families have had to fight for decades for justice.

But today, finally, we start to see #JFT48 .

#Stardust

Attending a powerful journalism festival discussion on the trial of #JimmyLai in Hong Kong. His trial is a stark reminder of the threats to media freedom. We must stand in solidarity with Jimmy Lai and all journalists fighting for the truth. #IJF24 #FreeJimmyLai

In prison for printing the truth.

“A Death in Malta examines the dark side of an island beloved by tourists, and explores how the globalisation of corruption has damaged a modern European country…It’s also a son’s tender tribute to his mother.” ⁦Lucy Popescu⁩ for the Camden New Journal camdennewjournal.co.uk/article/dead-r…
