The documentary that the BBC refused to air - Gaza: Doctors Under Attack - won a Bafta last night.
The documentary shows the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities. The decimation of Gaza’s healthcare system including the detention of healthcare workers is central to Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Amnesty awarded Gaza: Doctors Under Attack at the Amnesty Media Awards last week. The work of everyone involved in making this documentary and fighting for it to be broadcast shows the importance of journalists willing to speak truth to power.
#Bafta #Baftas
Here is my BAFTA speech in full, with the important bit that hasn't been shown.
Also, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us, and to our colleagues who rallied around us. And thank you to @BAFTA and the judges for a great evening and a great honour.

The Green Party’s Caroline Lucas says US President Donald Trump has “no kind of plan” for the US-Israel war with Iran, and the White House is treating it like a “big game”

Warning.
Helen Whately, Shadow Secretary of State for Work and Pensions will be on BBC Question Time tonight.
She is to measured political thinking, what Nadine Dorries is to strong work ethic.

Donald Trump is a bully.
US forces should not be using our UK bases and we shouldn't be dragged into Trump & Netanyahus illegal war.
@CarolineLucas speaking with such moral clarity on #BBCQT.
Must watch #BBCQT
Caroline Lucas, "I think this is an illegal reckless war with Iran that is being waged by Trump and Netanyahu"
"They have massively underestimated their enemy"
"Trump is a bully and a blackmailer"
"He has no plan for an exit strategy, says he will exit when he feels it in his bones"
"This is a President said who said he would bomb Kharg island just for fun"
"He suggested he might attack Cuba as well"
"The type of language Trump and Hegseth are using is just so disgusting"
"I've got their words: watch what happens to these deranged scumbags today, what a great honour to kill them"
"This is not Grand Theft Auto, this is real people real lives"
"And yet you get the sense from the White House that this is some big game"
"And all of us are suffering from it"
Portishead’s “Glory Box” (1994) is pure late-night smoke — vinyl crackle, slow-burn tension, and Beth Gibbons sounding both fragile and fearless at the same time. Seductive, bruised, and still hits like a confession.
Probably the clearest and strongest way of expressing that you can be both
Against a hateful, destructive Iranian regime
And think that Trump’s actions are illegal, reckless, and destabilising for the global order - far beyond Iran
