I've started sharing some of my own photography over on my Instagram, after years of feeling inadequate or disconnected to my own work. I think I'm finally turning a corner in that regard. Would love peoples feedback: https://t.co/9WHlzcAyVq

Amazing that Talk Radio:

1) Voluntarily chose to put this out.
2) Apparently believed this made the guest, rather than the host, look bad.

Three lads who were brilliant all summer had the courage to step up & take a pen when the stakes were high. They deserve support & backing not the vile racist abuse they’ve had since last night. If you abuse anyone on social media you’re not an @England fan and we don’t want you.

You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.

@clickclickjim 100% - You just need to look at the photo-ops that these ministers are fabricating. Patel, Johnson, all of them. Players, pundits, managers - they all have huge platforms and they should be able to use it to hold people in power to account.

Denmark's players had to form a protective ring around their teammate. A distraught wife was broadcast to the world. TV broadcasters and cameramen are capable of blocking footage of pitch invaders, but not this? Sorry, that is not ok.

@duckrabbitblog @JudeHabib @MagnumPhotos And, by the way, I'm not asking you to 'stop' or trying to make you feel bad. I just wanted to say that.

Keep going.

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@duckrabbitblog @JudeHabib @MagnumPhotos I mean, I work there. You think I don't want these things addressed?

I completely understand your frustration at the pace of things, or how things have been communicated.

I feel it too. I don't have answers for that.

I'm just trying to say that people do care. Deeply.

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@duckrabbitblog @JudeHabib @MagnumPhotos That's not my point. It's not about anyones sympathy. No one is looking for that. My point is that there is surely a shared will to make this right. And not right in corporate comms way: actual change, actual resolutions. Everyone is impatient for that.

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@duckrabbitblog @JudeHabib @MagnumPhotos Do you think people who work at Magnum right now are not affected and deeply upset by what's going on? Frustrated? Embarrassed? Of course they are. Do you also think people are not putting pressure on, asking questions and hoping for swift action? Of course they are.

Good pal @HarryRose__ has a wonderful new series on young climate activists, as featured on @1854. Take a look! https://t.co/zH8K3jFl4V

@FlakPhoto Let's get as far from FB as we can!

[Andy Adams @FlakPhoto]

Photo people: If we created an online community space that existed off of FB, would you join us? It's easy to say you would but I wonder if the FB allure/addiction is too strong. What would make an alternative appealing enough to join? (Please RT so more people can see this)

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@FlakPhoto Have you ever considered Slack for a community, or even Discord? Allows you to break the conversation into channels - kind of a modern day forum.

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@HarryRose__ True for some (including me)! 🤣

[Michael Sargeant @SHOWMEPICTURES]

@rjbirkin @RevealRecords @LCOrchestra Listened to this earlier this week during a flight back from Norway. Stunning, immersive and moving. 👏🏻👏🏻

@HarryRose__ We all deserve a cheat day now and again!

.@RishiSunak these are just some of the tasks/expenditure in making an independent album. 30+ people (artists and media professionals) received income. 15+ businesses traded together. Countless tasks done myself, self-taught over 20 years. And I am small-time w/ other job. #Sunak
