    Who were the unidentified men who ejected an elderly family from their farm house last week? Why do ex-British soldiers appear to be involved?  And where do the rumours stop and facts begin? A new reveals all.

    Somehow the Dutch finance ministry publishing a list of tax havens but forgetting to include the Netherlands feels very on-brand for 2018.

    It’s hard to put into words what an amazing woman is. Strong. Sweet. Fearless. She’s in our hearts, never forgotten. We’re all here, awaiting her release, to see her smile again. I hope soon. If we could, we’d give her the moon & stars.

    My latest: In one of the first detention centres refugees are held in, after they're brought back to Libya by the EU-backed coastguard, writing on the walls warns them they could be sold to traffickers. Detainees there say five met that fate two weeks ago
