Mark Dolan said he lit a cigarette live on air to push against the nanny state, breaking not just the broadcasting rules but leasehold rules of GB News which could have got the channel evicted. He said he had a point to make and wanted to do it in a way that people would notice.

Last night, a man secretly took photos of me on a train from London - and admitted it when I confronted him. When I confronted him, he said, “Sorry, I have a bad habit of doing that,” and I stood by him for over five minutes after he deleted image after image of me, sat on the train - just trying to get home. I shared that video to raise awareness because this happens to far too many women like me. Women should feel safe in public spaces, free from invasive and frightening behaviour. This matter has been reported to the police, and a full investigation is underway. At the officer’s request, I have deleted the video of the man taking photos while they conduct their investigation. I will keep you updated where I can. Thank you all again for your kind words of support. No women should feel unsafe or violated in public spaces.

Tonight, a man secretly took photos of me on a train from London – and admitted it when I confronted him. I was on my way back from London after my NCTJ journalism course, travelling from Waterloo East. Early in the journey, I noticed an older man sitting in a six-seat row, repeatedly looking over and smiling at me. I tried to brush it off – the train was busy, and I didn’t want to assume the worst. But as we approached the destination and the carriage emptied, it became clear something was wrong. He was now alone in his row, and I saw him holding his phone up – pointed directly at me. I shifted in my seat to get out of view, and he moved his phone again. Then I caught it in the window reflection – his camera app was open. He was taking photos. I stood up and told him to stop. He didn’t deny it. Instead, he admitted to taking pictures of me – and to “having a bad habit of doing this.” Then he added, “It’s good you called this out.” He opened Google Photos, where I saw photo after photo of me. He started deleting them one by one. I stood there for minutes watching, along with two male witnesses. I also managed to discreetly film part of it as evidence. When I asked him to open the Recycling Bin folder on his phone to ensure the photos of me were permanently deleted, he couldn't understand me – English was not his first language. He had been doing it for most of the journey. I felt exposed, angry, and deeply uncomfortable - but I’m glad I said something. This is what women deal with in everyday public spaces. It’s invasive, it’s frightening, and it shouldn’t be normal.

Police have imposed a 28-day protest ban outside the Britannia International Hotel asylum centre in Canary Wharf, saying it caused “alarm and distress” to residents following the women and children’s protest. But what about the alarm and distress felt in our own communities?
