Kim Sengupta was an inspirational journalist and a generous soul. I got my first break on the Indy thanks to him and his counsel was always wise. He loved stories - the powerful ones he wrote and the rib ticklers he told on the barge. Thanks Kim. Go well. inews.co.uk/news/brilliant-c…

For my first @guardian article, I wrote about canvassing in the age of the smart doorbell. It's probably the first general election in which you can try to win someone's vote while they’re having a bath. The future is now. theguardian.com/politics/art…

BREAKING NEWS. 20% of teenagers watch pornography frequently and some are addicted.
Shocking statistics that underline the importance of tougher, quicker measures to put porn behind an age verification wall in the Online Safety Bill.

Not an easy or pleasant subject to write about.
