One of the few things Meta (the company that owns Facebook and Instagram) has been praised for is CrowdTangle – an incredibly useful transparency tool for journalists like us

But, from today, Meta's pulling the plug on it

We’ve explained it all here 👇

Bacteria is becoming more and more resistant to our antibiotics, making common infections harder to treat

It’s a serious threat to humanity that concerns us all – but it hits those living in poverty the hardest

We went undercover and arranged a series of payments to each of the six major UK parties to test how easy it is for a foreign donor to make illegal political contributions

Labour was the only party to correctly identify and block the money

Suddenly, Konuma was questioning the integrity of the work being done under his watch.

🗣️“Can we believe what [Philip Morris] says about the … ‘better alternative’?” he said. “Can we believe that?” 4/8

🚨 HMRC messed up the chance to fine a notorious promotor of tax avoidance schemes millions of pounds after making a “rudimentary” error in court

The former lawyer and tax adviser is estimated by HMRC to have cost the UK some £1bn in lost taxes

Numerous migrant care workers have come to the UK only to find themselves exploited and abused

But the power imbalance created by the visa system has only made it harder for them to speak out ...

The UK receives £36 billion less in tax than it’s owed EVERY YEAR

That’s a lot of money so we decided to look into it – and the figures don’t look great 👇

[Katie Mark @k_tmark]

I was really honoured to be invited to speak at The Swedish Publicist Association about the unprecedented number of journalists that have been killed in Gaza.
Also very inspiring and such a pleasure to meet so many amazing journalists, striving to expose injustice.

Brilliant and important investigation from @Mellino.
Carers who come to the UK have been subjected to horrible abuse and exploitation which they are unable to report because the visas issues to them by the home office punishes whistleblowers.

[Emiliano Mellino @Mellino]

Evidence has been mounting that carers who come to the UK on the health & care visa are being subjected to exploitation & fraud.

We can now reveal this is in large part due to a visa design that punishes workers for whistleblowing🧵
