Remembering my dear colleagues Marie Colvin and Remi Ochlik, murdered by the Syrian regime in 2012 – at Ukraine
On #WorldPressFreedomDay, we remember Marie Colvin, the brave American journalist who was killed by the Assad regime in 2012 while reporting on the atrocities in Syria. In her final report for @CNN, she called on journalists to tell the truth about the regime's crimes. Today, we honor her memory and demand justice for Marie and the 650 journalists who lost their lives in Syria. We must defend #PressFreedom and hold those who attack it accountable.

If the vandals who spread salt over Carly Burd's charity allotment in Harlow planned to sow division & destruction it spectacularly backfired. Almost £200k now raised - including a donation from @GaryLineker. Carly will feed even more struggling families. More on @itvanglia.

Absolutely F*****G INCREDIBLE! Rishi Sunak just spent 2 minutes boasting about how Northern Ireland is the "most exciting exciting investment zone on the planet" because it has full access to the UK and EU market... You know... like we did before Brexit! #WindsorFramework

Given the problems brexit has created, when someone tells you it brings opportunities, ask them how much longer we have to wait for things to get better ….share if you agree those dealing with the harms deserve an answer… @labour4europe labourmovementforeurope.uk/j…
