Very honored that my last story for @washingtonpost, which published after I was laid off, won Le @PrixBayeux. It detailed the terrifying journey of a soldier trapped in the kill zone for 177 days. Was so glad to accept it in person with Anastacia Galouchka and Serhii Korolchuk.

love how NYT's expanded bylines increasingly tell their own stories

Always, always, always read @mjcontrera. Her latest, originally meant for The Washington Post, isn't just about AI. It's about family and grief — and how sometimes, it's easier to talk to a chatbot than each other. In this week's @NewYorker:

All of this. And so happy to have @emilyrauhala in Londontown.
Excited is an understatement. @emilyrauhala is an extraordinarily talented journalist — and an equally extraordinary & wonderful human. nytco.com/press/emily-rauhal…

In response to the amusing if bewildering accusation I’m a Labour stooge, please do pass this on to the following comrades:
— Keir Starmer and Waheed Alli, whose gifts of suits and spectacles to the PM was a story I broke
— Jeremy Corbyn, who furiously denounced a book I cowrote as “tittle tattle”
— Matthew Doyle, whose association with a convicted paedophile I exposed
— Tulip Siddiq, whose housing deals I examined and formed part of the inquiry leading to her resignation
— Keir Starmer (again), who said the thesis of a second book I wrote was “bollocks”
— Morgan McSweeney, whose group’s £750,000 of unlawfully undeclared donations I exposed
— Labour Together, which paid a US lobbying firm tens of thousands to investigate my work
— Ann Limb, who had her Labour peerage deferred after I revealed she made up part of her CV
— Joe Docherty, who was suspended as a Labour peer after I revealed his workplace sexting
— Angela Rayner, whose trip to New York alongside her boyfriend I revealed was funded by Waheed Alli
I recall many Reform figures vigorously agreeing about the public interest in those stories. Some have even referred to them in order to highlight the wrongdoing of the left since yesterday.
But also, it isn’t “my” story, it’s the Sunday Times investigation team, Insight’s story. It could not, would not have happened, without the whole paper, especially @ManuMidolo @venetiamenzies @GeorgeGreenwood whose revelations were indispensable and who have not to my knowledge (yet) been accused of being Labour activists.
Moreover the Sunday Times isn’t a Labour paper, or paper which exists to serve anyone or any party other than its readers and, to the best of our abilities, the public interest.
EXCLUSIVE
Nigel Farage failed to declare that a criminal and crypto gambler paid for his staff, security, drivers, social media output in year before election
Reform leader has also received free accommodation in Westminster from George Cottrell as MP

Heba is a brilliant journalist, a wonderful friend, and an asset to any team. She's deeply sourced and goes above and beyond to make sure a story gets across the line.
Hire her. ❤️
He's known as the "King of the North." He wins elections. Labour MPs love him. Now Andy Burnham may be headed for No. 10. But as @JonTonge told me, the jump from Manchester mayor to prime minister is "going from minor league baseball to the big stage." wapo.st/4f1ovIT
7 prime ministers. One cat. As Larry the Cat prepares to outlast yet another occupant of No. 10, I look back at the rise and fall of the leaders who came and went on his watch.
Maybe it's time Larry got the keys. wapo.st/3Sd9v2R
As the UK waits for news about Keir Starmer’s future, Donald Trump has already called it: Starmer will resign. An extraordinary foray into UK politics—but not necessarily a wrong assessment. My story here wapo.st/4aOAWGr
