Journalists covering court in the UK is vital for justice to be seen to be done, but time and again @Meta seems against journalists publishing information that @facebook's own guidlines say are 'legal outcomes which are a matter of public record & safety' https://t.co/uAmy5aanhb

[Ian Carter @iancarterIM]

This didn't take long to travel. Another example of the importance of court reporting.

Delighted to be able to announce the acquisition of Tindle News, one of the UK's largest independent publishers. Looking forward to welcoming our new colleagues to the Iliffe family.

[Ian Carter @iancarterIM]

Of course we sent reporters regardless but the door remained firmly shut in their faces. This happens time and time again and is not good enough. Story incoming.

[Ian Carter @iancarterIM]

Instead as a 'local newspaper ' we were invited to email some questions to @DHSCgovuk instead, conveniently overlooking @Kent_Online @kmfmnews and KMTV, which reach more people in the county than anyone else.

If you want an example of how Government really feels about local media, Kent's biggest news outlet has been barred from attending the @wesstreeting meningitis briefing.

Well, approximately 99% of the complaints we receive are from people complaining that we've covered their court case, so let's put this in its proper context.

Congratulations to @BowlesMbowles at @Kent_Online for being awarded winner of Cathryn Nicholl Award, sponsored by @NCTJ_news, at the #RegionalPressAwards2026

[Ian Carter @iancarterIM]

It's been a year since we launched a (very loose) paywall on @Kent_Online
Things have gone pretty well, rounded off by winning Regional Website of the Year at last week's @pressgazette awards. There's a great team behind the site - this video introduces some of them.

When barristers don't know the law! Thankfully our seasoned court reporters do!

[Ian Carter @iancarterIM]

An interesting snippet from the
@NewburyToday
court newsletter. Court reporting is vital for many reasons, and people involved in the justice system should know better than this. You can sign up for the full newsletter at https://t.co/VJlOqjNSnh

Congratulations to the @Kent_Online team - named website of the year at tonight's Press Gazette #FutureMediaAwards

I’ve been working on this story for the past few months, worth a read if you have a few minutes

[Stephen Briggs @PTstephenB]

We all agree with what @andrewpakes_ said about our friend and colleague @PTdavidlowndes2 - he is a local legend. And we could not agree more on the importance of local journalism. We local journos are not perfect - but I'd like to think we'd be missed if we disappeared

[Paul Fisher @PaulFisheredit]

Fantastic to see the importance of local journalism being discussed in the @HouseofCommons and my old friend and colleague @PTdavidlowndes2 being recognised. Looking forward to discussing the importance & future of UK journalism with @Steph_Peacock when she visits @IliffeMedia

[David Lowndes @PTdavidlowndes2]

Being mentioned in the House of Parliament today is just unbelievable Thanks to our MP Andrew Pakes. ⁦@peterboroughtel⁩

I did a thing! #GeneralElection2024 #voting

[Paul Fisher @PaulFisheredit]

Coffee update, the village shop only had Nescafe Original and I'm not that desperate yet! May go foraging further afield later!

[Paul Fisher @PaulFisheredit]

Two hours into the #GeneralElection2024    marathon and I'm already nearly out of coffee! Send help!

Every now and again, I still break out the camera and do some traditional journalism, 20 years and counting! Here's today's @KentishGazette with coverage of @pridecanterbury.
