- The shortlist for the Daphne Caruana Galizia Prize for Journalism is out: ten investigations on a brilliant range of subjects. Very proud to have worked on 2 of them, with colleagues @manisha.bsky.social @shaunwalker7.bsky.social and @pjotrsauer.bsky.social daphnejournalismprize.eu/edition-2025...
- Here is a nice picture of Elena Zhukova, the ex-mother in law or Roman Abramovich (and granny to his children), with her husband Rupert Murdoch at the state dinner given by King Charles for Donald Trump last night.
- Three out of the six declared candidates for the deputy leadership of Labour back a wealth tax: Emily Thornberry, Bell Ribeiro-Addy and Paula Barker. Here is Bell on why she wants the UK to introduce a wealth tax: labourlist.org/2025/08/weal...
- These three stories are the most read pieces by the Guardian’s business team over the last 7 days. Can you spot the theme? Here’s the link to my report on the battle over Norway’s wealth tax. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...
- On the day of his election as leader of the Green Party, @zackpolanski.bsky.social has chosen to write for the Guardian not about the environment, but about how to tax wealth. This is a moment, for Labour, for the unions and for those they choose to finance. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
- "Without meaningful anti-SLAPP protections that can level the playing field and make sure the justice system serves everyone equally, there are few structural protections to prevent this happening again. For that reason we need a universal anti-SLAPP law without delay." antislapp.uk/2025/08/22/t...
- Today is a good day for press freedom. This important decision by the High Court protects the rights of women who speak out against abuse, and of the journalists who seek to tell their stories. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/a...
- It’s the big question for the chancellor - should Rachel Reeves bring in a UK wealth tax? I looked at Spain, which has had one for years, and increased it after Covid. The result? It doesn’t raise much, but it’s popular, and there was no billionaire exodus. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
- My colleague Shaun Walker attended the funeral of reporter Viktoriia Roshchyna in Kyiv today. She died alone and in unimaginable suffering, somewhere inside Russia, after being taken captive. Her body was returned in February and finally buried today 💔 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
- The man who would be France’s next president: Gabriel Attal on Brexit, controlling migration and his intentions for the 2027 presidential race www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

- Viktoriia Roshchyna ventured into occupied Ukraine to investigate the Russian 'black sites' - then ended up in one herself. Here, Michael Safi speaks to @manisha.bsky.social and I about Vika and the detention and torture of thousands of other civilians. www.theguardian.com/news/audio/2...
- Thank you to @tinabrownlm.bsky.social for the opportunity to tell the tragic story of Viktoriia Roshchyna, a Ukrainian journalist who died in Russian captivity, at today's Truth Tellers summit. With the formidable @laurentrichard.bsky.social and Katya Adler. Watch here sirharrysummit.org/watch/
- This week I've been writing about the death in Russian captivity of the Ukrainian journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna. She was tortured, she was just 27. And she was one of the 16k civilians Russia has abducted since 2022. I spoke about it to Anita Rani on BBC Woman's Hour www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

- Viktoriia Roshchyna crossed the frontline to investigate one of Russia's least talked about war crimes - the brutal detention and torture of 16,000 civilians from occupied Ukraine. She died in Russian custody, a victim of the horrors she had set out to expose. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
- "I thought I'll give it a go, see how I get on"...Mark ended up losing £27,000 - a year's salary - to investment fraud. Now he's in debt, struggling with the repayments. Listening back to his calls with the scammers, it's easy to see how he was taken in www.theguardian.com/news/audio/2...

- Most of us know a friend or a relative who has lost money to online scammers. What we didn’t know until now are that British citizens are targeted more than any other group. Canadians come second. Why? Because they are relatively wealthy and speak English. www.theguardian.com/money/2025/m...
- The British Virgin Islands are a clash with UK Gov over financial crime which threatens to escalate into a constitutional standoff, from @byrobdavies.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...
- A number of members of the House of Lords have visited Azerbaijan recently, on paid trips. Human rights groups say endorsements from peers risk legitimising this authoritarian regime, ruled over by one family for decades. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
- Hats off to the genuinely brilliant @byrobdavies.bsky.social - and his ridiculously talented accomplice @simonlock.bsky.social - who for the first time showed us exactly how Roman Abramovich bent the rules at Chelsea FC
- Labour peer Margaret Hodge has been named anti-corruption champion. She'll have limited powers but a big loudhailer. This is a signal foreign secretary David Lammy is serious about stemming the flow of dirty money through London. Facilitators beware... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

- Most billionaires pay an effective tax rate close to zero. But there are plans to change that, with the G20 leaders discussing a minimum global tax in Brazil this week. Spain's economy minister Carlos Cuerpo tells me it's time to "be brave" and make it happen. www.theguardian.com/news/2024/no...
- These are all top subjects I would love to read more on. Good luck with the bungalow.
