ഇതെന്തിനാ സാറേ.. ഇളനീരിനകത്തെ തേങ്ങ വടിച്ചെടുക്കാൻ ആണോ.. #icuchalu #currentaffairs Credits: Jalin Jamal ©ICU , ift.tt/2g26kUh
On a grey, damp and chilly Monday morning in February 1960, fresh from school, I began my journalistic career on the Banstead Herald in Surrey. Among the reporters I met on that impressionable first day was one Terry Collcutt, a couple of years older than I – ‘a down to earth reporter’ I recorded a little later, ‘who smoked Old Holborn roll-ups in liquorice paper’. I’m proud to say that we never lost touch, and we remained the best of friends quite literally to his dying day, 58 years later.
Terry died last Thursday, and with his passing, one of the early building blocks of my life has been taken away. He was a fine and instinctive local journalist, with a newshound’s nose for a good story and a terrier's instinct to dig for the facts. Away from the typewriter, exchanging one sort of keyboard for another, he was also a jazz pianist of no mean accomplishment. And did I mention his double allotment in his home village of Bletchingley? He was a dab hand with the leeks and legumes, as well.
But back to reporting: his ‘old school’ Pitman’s shorthand was impeccable. He learned this strange but effective script in his early days as a cub reporter, and used it for the rest of his life, even when jotting down notes to himself. Well, journalism was his trade, after all – and even as recently as a few months ago, he was writing letters to The Daily Telegraph (and getting them published) on subjects as diverse as the state of the NHS and the inability of some schoolteachers to use punctuation properly.
Terry had an insatiable interest in politics, and throughout his life he was an unreconstructed socialist to the core. Not that you would ever have picked that up from his journalism: he was scrupulously even-handed when it came to reporting the political ebbs and flows he so keenly observed. He had a lovely sense of humour, too, and whenever we met – usually with other friends from the now distant inky-fingered world of newspapers – our easy, drifting lunches were always stimulating and jolly.
Terry Collcutt was simply one of the best. He’s gone now, and I for one am missing him already. But believe me when I say that he’ll be celebrated for years to come.
At the Place de la Bourse in Brussels. This is where people had gathered to pay their respects and lay flowers, and, later, to come and make vile anti-immigrant protests.
From the archive... 18 July 1974.
In the 1970s when I was working in television, I spent much of my time in Northern Ireland. There, the crucial thing was to be even-handed at all times - and so it was that I had all manner of dealings with any number of politicians, prelates, soldiers, civil servants, black propagandists, thugs, terrorists and freedom fighters from across the wide divide. Not least were several clandestine meetings with the most wanted man in Britain and Ireland - Daithi Ó Conaill, chief of staff of the Provisional IRA. At the time, five years into 'The Troubles', I was preparing a documentary for Thames TV about the political process, and his would be an important, though highly controversial, contribution (Ó Conaill was regarded on all sides as being a political thinker and strategist, though obviously a hard-liner).
It took a long time to reach him, but in time we met, and he agreed to take part in the programme (at which point, Ian Paisley angrily withdrew), and we filmed the interview in a 'safe house' outside Dublin. Someone in the TV crew had a stills camera, and Ó Conaill didn't object. Here he is on the left... and that's me on the right.
For me, this was a defining journalistic moment: I’d been assiduously working towards this interview for months, without any sure indication that I would get anywhere near this moment. And when it happened, I knew I’d pulled off a career coup – and irritated the hell out of the British government, who were less than pleased. The interview was done by Peter Taylor, the award-winning veteran reporter who is now one of my oldest and closest friends. There's more on the Troubles here
A riot in Andersonstown, Belfast - not an infrequent event during Northern Ireland's Troubles. This was October 1976. I snatched this image with a Topcon RE Super 35mm camera with Kodakolor film.
There's more material from the same era here.

Bishop Edward Daly. 5 December 1933 - 8 August 2016
I was sad, from a personal as well as a political perspective, to hear of the death today of Bishop Edward Daly, at the age of 82.
In January 1972 the bishop, then a parish priest in Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland, was a pivotal player in the terrible event that became known worldwide as Bloody Sunday – one of the most notorious in the long history of The Troubles.
Among those present that day at a civil rights march was the then Father Edward Daly. Under gunfire, he waved a bloodstained handkerchief as he led a group of people carrying the dying teenager John Duddy away from the mayhem. This harrowing scene has become probably the most vividly enduring image of The Troubles, and to this day it’s depicted in a wall mural in Derry (top image).
In his book Ireland – A Terrible Beauty (1976), Leon Uris wrote: “For a time Father Daly had to leave Derry, for the agony of it had become unbearable. Then, in one of the hierarchy’s most enlightened decisions, he was named Bishop of Derry. This most Christian of men and most gentle of souls returned... for he was incapable of doing less.”
In my journalistic days with Thames Television, I was fortunate enough to work in Northern Ireland for some years during The Troubles, and I came to personally know the Bishop as a man of great humanity and integrity. In the bottom image, I’m on the left and Peter Taylor, now a veteran BBC reporter specialising in global terrorism, is on the right. The photograph was taken after we’d recorded an interview for Thames TV's This Week international current affairs programme on 27 January 1977.
Today, I should like to pay tribute to Bishop Edward Daly, a remarkable and outstanding human being, for all the good he did in Northern Ireland in those deeply troubled times and beyond. Blessed is the peacemaker.
A little more of my Northern Ireland material from those days is here.

The apartment block in St. Denis used by the Paris terrorists, that was then raided by police. The whole back wall was blown out and floors collapsed, blast holes are also very visible around the windows. Can't really imagine what that must all have been like...

Because Rohingya Peoples are fleeing and entering to Bangladesh for save their lives. The government of Bangladesh and the general people are giving shelter to humanitarian causes and extended their hands to sympathy. But no one wants that these Rohingya refugees stay in Bangladesh for a long time.

Original image was a collaboration for an eventual poster, created by Chip Thomas (jetsonorama) and Monica Canilao (wewillallbewell) for JustSeeds and the promotion of the People’s Climate March in New York September 21, 2014.
This digital photo mural was created in November 2014 by Chip Thomas aka Jetsonorama. The paper is applied to the wall with acrylic matte medium.

Current Affairs books at Bernes & Noble in November 2019. Much about Trump and the Mueller Report. The world has changed a lot since that time...
File: 2022002-0410
Cathedral Plaza, at the south end of High Street, Worcester, Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom. Sunday 6th March 2022, at around 2pm to 4pm.
About the photograph.
The No to War in Ukraine protest was arranged by the Worcester Trades Union Council and took place in Worcester on Sunday 6th March 2022.
It was happening just a stone’s throw from the Knife Angel sculpture which was on tour around the United Kingdom, and at that time, was in Worcester.
In the photographs, this lady was taking photos of the Knife Angel, and as you can see in the background in one of the photos, a crowd of people attending the protest.
She is wearing a leopard print faux fur coat, with blue jeans tucked into knee-length boots.
Notice that she’s wearing gloves on her left hand, but her right hand is bare, as she needed to operate her Apple iPhone.
The last time I attended a protest to try to do some photojournalism kind of photography, was back in 1987-89 during my college days.
Since then, I had been trying to get a job in photography or graphic design. Got married, started having kids, then got a divorce and became a very busy single parent and full-time carer. Now that my kids are older and left home, I’m free and independent, so I decided to try to get back into doing photography. I need to refresh my skills anyway.
In the first week of March, 2022, I heard that there was a planned protest in Worcester which is the nearest city, so the night before, I charged up my Nikon’s batteries, formatted the memory cards to make sure I have plenty of storage space left for more photos, and made sure my photography kit bag is ready.
On the afternoon of Sunday, I drove to Worcester, parked my car at the car park, and walked over to the Cathedral Plaza, which is where the protests were happening.
There was around about between 50 to 75 people, or something like that, maybe up to a hundred. The protest was really more like a Speaker’s Corner kind of protest, with many people just standing around, rather than a march. It wasn’t much of a protest, but then again, it is because Worcester is a small city compared to other major cities where protests were taking part on massive scale.
I tried my best to do a photo-journalism kind of photography, I went around the crowd and took as many photos as I could. Those are just the few good photos I could find out of the approximately 400 photos I managed to take.
About the overall subject.
About the protest.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine started on the 24th of February 2022, and in a short space of time, many Europeans, Americans, mostly and mainly anyone of “Western” lifestyle, people living in free countries, with freedom of speech, of choice, of votes, many of them started taking to streets to protest against the Russian invasion.
There were so many signs in various languages, often advising that Russia should leave Ukraine, stop the war, Putin being a war criminal, and so on.
This protest that I attended to take the photos, was organised by the Worcester Trades Union Council, and was listed on the Stop the War Coalition website, under the No to War in Ukraine protests section. This was just one of the hundreds, if not thousands, of protests happening all around the world on Sunday 6th March, in respond to President Putin‘s decision to attack Ukraine.
About the Knife Angel.
The Knife Angel is a 27 feet tall structure, it is a sculpture of a weeping angel, and was made with 100,000 various knives. The knives were mainly anonymously donated and handed in through knife banks, with some knives seized by the police.
The sculpture was created to highlight the knife crime in the United Kingdom, and try to educate young people of the behaviour.
When the structure was completed in 2018, it began a nationwide tour around the UK, often on display in a city for a month, before moved to another city for another month.
The Comment Box is for comments about the photograph or about the subject in the photograph. It is NOT an adverting billboard for copy-and-paste Canned Comments with pre-prepared text and oversized pic of group logo. Those say something about the groups, not about my photo, therefore will be deleted. If you want to promote the groups you are member of, do so in YOUR own Photostream!
at Worcester.
One week before I took this, this terrace was filled with people laughing, drinking, talking, fighting, and doing all the things that make Paris the city of light. Now they are flowers and candles.
We are the young people of the Ukraine.Photographed in the City of Odessa, on the Black Sea.
I hope everything is resolved peacefully in these troubled times
Treated with suspicion in his home city, an Asian man in Bristol photographed at Temple Meads Railway station. Shortly after this artistic shoot a few months ago (which I've only just posted now), an Asian man was allegedly thrown off a National Express bus leaving from Bristol because of suspicion from other (white) passengers he was a terrorist.
Even while I was with him for the shoot, I noted how some people were looking at him with disgust. This is just as we walked down the street. A significant nunber also gave me filthy looks because I was chatting to him - I think they assumed we were a mixed race couple.

The Home Secretary, the right honourable Theresa May, no less, leaving the annual Police Federation Conference at the BIC today, after making a speech there.
While loitering around the seafront in my lunch break, I noticed a bit of Police activity at the back of the BIC and realised that someone of importance was due to leave. Hung around for 10 minutes and gate crashed the press pack to get this shot..pretty chuffed with it, not bad for my little Lumix !

Photographs taken on Saturday Febuary 4th as Police escorted members of the English Defence League (EDL) as they marched holding banners aloft during a demonstration through the streets of Leicester city center. Estimates say Up to two thousand members of the EDL gathered in the centre of Leicester, personally I think it was around a thousand as an opposing demonstration by anti-fascists UAF (Unite Against fascismheld) was held nearby.
I was shooting the events as they unfolded for Getty Images.

From the archive, and following on from the previous image - I'm on the promanade in Benghazi, waiting for Gaddafi (and looking quite relaxed about it) in March 1973. I haven't a clue who took this photograph - but all these decades later the sideburns, the purple shirt, the leather coat, the Chelsea boots are something of an embarrassment... but the style at the time.
By the way, that's Benghazi's former Catholic cathedral in the background. It was built between 1929 and 1939 and was once the largest church in Africa. It later became a headquarters for the Arab Socialist Union and today it's ramshackle and derelict.
