#UK police under fire for #arresting #French publisher
“The #arrest of #Ernest #Moret is extremely concerning,” said #Pamela #Morton, #NUJ representative. “It seems extraordinary that the #British #police have acted this way in using #terrorism #legislation to arrest the #publisher who was on #legitimate #business here for the #London #Book #Fair”

More on #BBC #strike and how we 'work to rule' (a form of industrial action) and why you might miss some familiar faces: across the country colleagues -members of the National Union of Journalists #NUJ and those who show solidarity- are refusing to act-up in senior roles due to the way cuts are being made to local BBC services. We’ll still be working, but not in the same way. You may see freelancers fronting the programme.

The general secretary of the UK's National Union of Journalists #NUJ (with a massive core membership of BBC employees),Michelle Stanistreet, on the BBC's "dangerous position" following announcements that Lineker is to step back from his role on Match of the Day #MOTD :
“This is a massive own goal on the part of the BBC.
Yielding to sustained political pressure in this way is as foolish as it is dangerous."

I did a fab NUJ scriptwriting course at the weekend, adding another very enjoyable and I’m sure useful string to my already plentiful bow.

Eamonn McCann speaking at the Save Radio Foyle meeting last night in the Guildhall: “It will be a signal to everyone else if we stick together and win this. Derry can give the lead once again.” #SaveRadioFoyle #NUJ https://fb.watch/hSIiS-QqlO/
RT @NUJofficial: Thanks to @CarolineRussell for raising wrongful journalists' arrests with the Mayor of London, and highlighting #NUJ training package for police officers. Journalists should be able to report without fear of arrest.

@cathynewman Don't believe in standing by fellow Trades Unionists?
Or are you not in the #NUJ?
#SLAPPs are a huge threat to journalism and the open society. Even the Tory party agrees, apparently. Big topic of conversation right now within #NUJ Ethics Council.
