🆕 My latest Substack, after seeing the film 'The Correspondent'
The story of the arrest and imprisonment of journalist Peter Greste took me back to the days of #FreeAJStaff and an extraordinary level of support for press freedom.
But in 2025, I wonder if that solidarity still exists...
Al Jazeera staff still detained in Egypt for simply for doing their jobs. Free them. #FreeAJStaff www.amnesty.org.uk/actions/egypt-free-al-ja... via @amnestyuk

@jonsnowC4 #channel4news I don't think I could love Jon Snow more. #FreeAJStaff
FYI: #Egypt's Foreign Ministry preemptively prepared talking points & reports for ambassadors abroad regarding #AJTrial... #FreeAJStaff
No logic, no justice. I’m disgusted at Egypt’s verdict. #FreeAJStaff
Fingers crossed for jailed journos RT @alextomo: Goodbye to all this? Verdict is tomorrow #FreeAJStaff x.com/alextomo/status/48081701...

On the evidence vs @PeterGreste - "we didn't see much" says @sayahcnn http://bit.ly/1gcqVh5 #FreeAJStaff
Other than the cage, the only thing with more holes in this court is the case for the prosecution #FreeAJStaff
Because every corner of our global community deserves a free and open press --> #FreeAJStaff
Journalism is NOT a crime! #FreeAJStaff
Journalism is not terrorism - I am protesting the muzzling of Al Jazeera’s staff in Egypt. #FreeAJStaff http://thndr.it/1nTMx5U

Tomorrow @PeterGreste is due to go on trial in #Egypt. It's time he & his coworkers were released #FreeAJStaff h
#FreeAJStaff images all over Twitter. Good.
#Egypt should #FreeAJStaff but not let Al-Jazeera off the hook!
#FreeAJStaff because @Repent11 and @PeterGreste should not take the fall for Al-Jazeera's lack of professionalism and disregard for them.
#FreeAJStaff without absolving the management and channel of wrongdoing, especially against their own employees. #Egypt
