MEPs are urging the European Commission to hold some of Europol's budget after it was revealed they were running a "shadow IT system" for phone records, identity documents, financial and geolocation information - even of people not suspected of a crime.

It is so much easier to parade online harms victims and complain that not "enough" is being done than to analyze proposed solutions for feasibility and effectiveness. FIPR provides useful analysis - politicians and popular media should read.
Well done to @PeterKGeoghegan and Khadija Sharife for winning the @PrivateEyeNews Paul Foot Award — and revealing a conspiracy which for some time succeeded in suppressing scrutiny and defaming not just Sunday Times reporters, but those without the same resources to defend themselves including, above all, Paul Holden @StarmertheFraud.
He was trashed for supplying us with bulletproof documents which posed a question which years later has still never been answered: why did the entity which made Keir Starmer leader fail to declare hundreds upon thousands of pounds when it had been told it needed to?
The alacrity with which Labour ministers and MPs rightly scrutinise, for instance, Farage’s finances strangely still eludes them on this. Still some grumble about the supposed factual identity of Starmer’s adversaries — and in so doing, either inadvertently or otherwise give oxygen to many of the report’s lurid claims.
Which is why fearless journalism was the only remedy. Peter and Khadija recognised that and the whole fourth estate is fortunate they did.
And a final word: only a few of us know the sacrifices some people have made to bring this information into the public domain. Thank you to them — and let’s all remember that, according to Hansard, at least one source is being hounded by Apco, the appalling firm behind the report.
Investigation with @TheDetailTV & the Guardian this morn. We reveal how British security services were involved in formulating the Legacy Act, despite the fact the act was supposed to investigate killings carried out by the state https://t.co/fehxxv37Lp & https://t.co/bv7yTlmoZ5

This is a massive proof of concept for the Mill Media titles and its journalists.
Victory for press freedom in open combat against some of the most terrifying threats a publisher can face.
Marking themselves out for truly great things here….
Some great news to announce this morn😁: The case against us has been thrown out!
However, its absurdity highlights the urgent need for the govt to stop talking about it and act on long promised reforms. A waste of time and energy for everyone involved

A remarkable lament of Labour's failure to reform Britain's libel laws by @PeterKGeoghegan and @JennaCorderoy in the NS this morn. It details the genesis of the law from the Postwar era to Londongrad, up until my own & @_TheLondoner's case today https://t.co/Xj4w90fn6m
Io non vorrei parlare male dell'Italia nei media stranieri,ma ho dovuto raccontare la verità: contrariamente alle autorità inglesi ed europee, il ministero dell'interno di Piantedosi si è rifiutato di rispondere su cosa sta negoziando Italia con USA https://t.co/PKCSnr4OXS
