British-Iranian journalists are being harassed and attacked on UK streets. The Iranian Regime is trying to stop journalists from speaking out - with many incidents going unreported. The view from those under threat is resilient but bleak. @alihamedanii

Think you can just turn up to busk on the London Underground? You’d be wrong - performing in tube stations is highly competitive. Auditions taking place today in Blackfriars station with TfL staff and music experts judging (these are the first since 2017!) #londonundergroud #tube

ANALYSIS: With David Cameron seen entering 10 Downing Street, could he be tipped to fill the Foreign Secretary role if Cleverly were to move to Home Sec - having an ex PM in the role could help add weight to the UK’s foreign policy esp. around Israel Hamas war etc.

Google’s AI assistant Bard won’t answer questions on the conflict between Israel and Hamas or Palestine. However, if you ask it about the wider region without mentioning the conflict specifically it will answer with facts about the current conflict.

Since his 10 year old son was allegedly punched by a member of staff in November, Charles told me he hasn’t been offered a meeting with the school. He also said that “the police haven’t said anything, they haven’t informed me of anything” since he reported the alleged incident
