The 29 extradited from Mexico to the US read like a who’s who of cartel history. From Caro Quintero, Z40, Z42 to cartel bookkeepers and top lieutenants. Govt claims removing them under National Security Law allowed them to get around any injunctions from extradition.

If you haven’t seen our awesome colleague Gary O'Donoghue accepting his RTS award for breaking news on the Trump assassination attempt, I urge you to do so. One of the very best in the business.

Like others, I figured Arsenal would go one better this year than last & I have no doubt they’ll go on to win things soon, perhaps this season. But our consistency in the league has been amazing. To do this in April is credit to Slot, who filled some huge shoes with style. YNWA

Mexican soldiers gun down "El Perris" of Chapitos. The Mexican government says soldiers were ambushed when they went in. But does it really show a more hardline approach by troops now going in blazing? My video news report on the take down of El 27:↓ crashoutmedia.com/p/mexican-sold…

Sorry to hear of the death of Alan Yentob. I had the extraordinary experience of helping him out twice in Cuba on an Arena doc about Carlos Acosta CBE and then with Julien Temple on music and revolution. A consummate pro and a unique film-maker. Abrazos to his loved ones.
