The far-right are peddling dangerous misinformation about events in Leeds tonight. There is zero evidence that any of the disorder in Harehills is linked to British Muslims or people from the Indian subcontinent. They will seize any opportunity to spread hate and division.

#GeneralElection2024 Seriously, vote. It's no exaggeration to say that people died so that you could. No result is inevitable. Express your view, do your bit for your friends and family and for future generations. Keep democracy alive, get involved. But, above all, VOTE today.

Recent coverage of the Post Office scandal suggests to me that my 25 well-meaning years as a journalist were mostly irrelevant! I’ve learnt, if you want a story to have any real impact, make it into a television drama!
