I’ve worked on many of the biggest stories of the last decade including the EU referendum, the Brexit negotiations, the pandemic, the last four general elections, the UK response to the wars in Ukraine & Gaza, the partygate scandal & the collapse of the Johnson & Truss governments. My investigation into the conviction of Louise Haigh in relation to an allegedly stolen phone led to her resignation as Transport Secretary in November 2024. Since coming to Westminster with the BBC, I’ve interviewed many senior politicians including Sir Keir Starmer, Rishi Sunak, Boris Johnson, Theresa May & Jeremy Corbyn. Outside of work I enjoy pottering in my allotment (& documenting it on my instagram), swimming & listening to music .
