PERSONAL NEWS 🗞️ I’m thrilled to say I’m writing a book for the great people at @HeadlinePress1 If you care about truth-telling journalism, and the future of democracy I hope you’ll want to read it. More details in link⬇️ thebookseller.com/rights/headlin…
I listened to Stephen on @TimesRadio from 1-2pm Mon-Thurs. I'm really hoping they give him a longer regular daily slot as it was quality broadcasting. He's respected for his breadth of knowledge & is unafraid to challenge unsubstantiated nonsense in his firm but fair manner. 👍
This guy is amongst the greatest, Jeremy Bowen, Lyse Doucet, Jeremy Bowen, Kate Adie, George Alagiah, The legend Trevor McDonald, I could go on, this is proper journalism. The BBC was once the pinnacle of a journalists career. It is casting off talent left right and centre.
🚀😊
@Stephensackur Indeed your first week @thetimes has been a blast!
"With all the talk of powder keg communities and simmering tension over immigration, there's going to be a real test." Labour faces a major summer challenge as rising tensions over immigration and crime have “frayed” public trust in the Government, says @StephenSackur.
Thank you Fraser! 🙏
Times Radio delivers a quality of interview that you’d struggle to find elsewhere - and gets better all the time. Stephen Sackur, the latest to join, is a great example.

Impressive 'thought for the day'; thought the conclusion a tad bleak.

Dear Mr Sackur. The powers that be, seem to have a predilection for removing anyone that speaks sense, from the mainstream media. HardTalk was the most informative, honest news programme in a generation. I spent many a year overseas, and it was the highlight of the week. ❤️ TUx
That’s great to hear Katrina! 🙏
Good stuff..have been reluctant to engage with Times Radio but will ake an exception for this!

@stephensackur @TimesRadio good luck on your 1pm show...not that you'll need it. So far so good...in fact brilliant! Refreshing to hear facts based challenges to preposterous #Reform policies. 👍💪
That’s great to hear Albie! 🙏
@TimesRadio’s Times at One is quickly becoming my favourite show, @afneil @TrevorPTweets @Jo_Coburn @Dannythefink & now @stephensackur, who has just completed a sensational first hour today. Congratulations to @timlevell @mollylguinness & team. We absolutely love to hear it!
“Yes, definitely. I’m suggesting crime is out of control.” “That’s just plain wrong, isn’t... it’s in long term decline.” @StephenSackur confronts Reform councillor for Westminster Laila Cunningham over her party's “deceitful rhetoric.” #TimesRadio
