Openness and transparency are pillars of our democratic system, so I welcome the call for security advice about me provided to HOLAC to be released. I have nothing to hide.

The The Independent 's amazing Bel Trew and her new doc. Documentary: The true horror of Russia’s war in Ukraine | On The Ground | News | Independent TV independent.co.uk/tv/news/ukrain…

Very proud of The Independent 's [email protected] & Bel Trew's London Press Club nominations. Kim for Journalist of the Year for his coverage in Ukraine. Bel for Multi-Media Journalist of the Year for her coverage in Syria and Ukraine. Both very brave under harrowing conditions.
