@JohnSimpsonNews Nigeria continues to be the epicentre of fraud and extortion. Yet it used to be a country where education had priority, the Universities of Ife, Ibadan and others were well respected. The discovery of oil changed everything. justice.gov/usao-mdfl/pr/c…
BBC News broadcast evidence of child starvation in #Gaza today Israel won't allow the BBC to enter and report from Gaza, but the BBC was able to obtain this footage from an American doctor #GazaWar bbc.co.uk/news/world-mid…
My son is 18 — the age that is being preyed on by gangs of criminals in Nigeria etc. The gangs get, or pretend to have obtained, nude photos of them, and demand cash not to send the pics to all their contacts. 91% of UK victims last year were male. Several committed suicide.
I’m not usually too enthused by leading political figures, if only because, close up, they often aren’t what you hoped they’d be. Even so, for a US secretary of state, Anthony Blinken is a bit of a mensch. Here’s further evidence.

Russia in recent days. More arrests...more journalists: * Sergei Mingazov (charge: allegedly spreading ‘false info’ about army) * Konstantin Gabov (‘extremism’ charge) * Sergey Karelin (‘extremism’ charge, reports AP)
30 years ago South Africa peacefully voted away the wicked and stupid system of apartheid and seemed to be on the way to a fine, prosperous future. Reporting on it was the happiest event of my professional life. But President Jacob Zuma’s corruption did irreparable damage to it.
Very proud to meet Mikhail Voskresensky, the most famous Russian pianist and a man of principle. When Putin invaded Ukraine, Voskresenky (who was 86 at the time) was so outraged that he spoke out against the war and had to abandon his entire life, home, wealth, friends and family…

This certainly is ugly, unpleasant and unnecessary. But a thousand students and others weren’t massacred by trained and well-armed soldiers, as happened at Tiananmen Square in 1989.

I’m not sure that Shakespeare wrote 14 lines better than these; let alone anyone else. And how wonderfully spoken by Dame Judi!

Borges used to explain that English was a marriage of tough Anglo-Saxon and courtly French, which explains why there were two parallel English words for just about everything. An Eng-French dictionary is just about double the size of a French-Eng one. Lovely to hear his voice.

@JohnSimpsonNews @MillsRyder To the point where hopefully the threats will hold no weight because we'll all shrug them off as probably fake 🤞
@JohnSimpsonNews He's led a fascinating life. His parents and stepfather are remarkable people.
I have no sympathies for Yahoo boys, they are criminals and the law should be harder on those caught. Look at the pain and hardship they are inflicting on innocent people. Sorry you had to go through this John.
My son is 18 — the age that is being preyed on by gangs of criminals in Nigeria etc. The gangs get, or pretend to have obtained, nude photos of them, and demand cash not to send the pics to all their contacts. 91% of UK victims last year were male. Several committed suicide.
Ok. Extremely niche question but what’s the point of these little corners of social media if you can’t ask… Does anyone have any written info on the 2001 repair of the magnificent decorated gothic east window at Fishlake? Can’t find anything but noted it down on my visit:
Taking in this beautiful view after a two hour walk today when I heard the unmistakable roar of a Merlin engine.
@JohnSimpsonNews Donner und Blinken... you're right... truly a mensch! 😊🎸👏👏👍
@JohnSimpsonNews Happend to my son, the police said it's rare they will speak up. Proud that he panicked and told his sister and us. Sadly he paid the bribe but will not do again. They used a superimposed picture. School were told so students hopefully aware. He is 16. Its mortifying to teens.
@JohnSimpsonNews Not sure how to stop this but he'll be getting good experience for a career in politics!
@JohnSimpsonNews There has been a good documentary on Sextortion on NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC on sky, was aired a weeks ago but still available to watch
@JohnSimpsonNews And I must have warned my 2 teenage boys of this exact scam at least 30 times, since they were barely old enough to even think about sex.
@JohnSimpsonNews Yes I saw a young boy who had achieved straight A*s at GCSE who got caught in this trap and took his own life. I can only imagine how terrified he felt and now family suffering. The GCSE grades are irrelevant here
@JohnSimpsonNews So keep on abreasting your good son about its peril . Good morning Mr John Sir. Please visit 🙏.
@JohnSimpsonNews I’ve had emails like this, it was convincing because they even had my email password and username to give the impression they had access to my emails. But it was an old password from a data leak and when I googled the wording of the email it was a generic scam.
@Elainebks @JohnSimpsonNews Nothing. We paid something like £50, then they came back and wanted more money so I told him to just block the number. Nothing happened. Maybe it was just a bluff.
@JohnSimpsonNews @devilscustard Welcome back whenever John!
@JohnSimpsonNews Fortunately, he told us straight away, but we are lucky to have that relationship, many aren’t so fortunate. The tactic is they tell you they’ve captured your contact list and will forward the nudes/compromising images to every single contact unless you pay.
