I was the only woman in an all-male Times leader conference when Wayne Couzens was sentenced. A 70 year old colleague expressed astonishment at the full life tariff - that was for the worst crimes only! I said: a generation of women will never trust the police. Not crime enough?

Huge congratulations to TRIAL International and all those they have worked with to get this result — important not just for itself but what it can herald for future

Western liberal politicians and media like to blame Netanyahu for everything that's wrong in Israel. That is a false and dangerous notion. All Zionist "opposition" parties (Gantz, Lapid) and President Herzog condemning Khan just shows Israelis either deny or justify war crimes

Madness left behind, finally. Amazing that any British government could ever have thought blocking justice was a good idea. theguardian.com/law/article/20…

This one was tough to write. I’ve edited Kim for more than a decade, with him covering all corners of the world. His job was never to make mine easy - he was always the first to head to a frontline. But he did so with humour and his reporting was superb. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

I'm looking forward to reading this v timely book by ⁦Steve Crawshaw 🧡⁩ who gave an inspiring speech last night about the moral courage it takes to bring war crimes perpetrators to justice. I woke up to media hesitating to call Trump's plan for #Gaza what it is - a war crime.
