&quot;John Sweeney, writer, reporter, old school. He pokes crocodiles in the eye with a stick.” <br><br>Hello, what gets me out of the pub is when power and money says to ordinary people, &quot;You shut up&quot;. I report stories that others walk away from: cot death mothers convicted of murder, roaring at the Church of Scientology, going to North Korea Undercover, challenging Trump about his connections with the mob, doorstepping Putin about the shooting down of MH17. Right now I am in Kyiv, waiting for a war. Journalism, the kind of stuff I care about, costs money. So if you can afford to send me a £5 a month I would be grateful. If you can afford more, good on you. My aim is to write one longish post every week and put short films up here too. Thank you for coming along for the ride. Cheers John Sweeney
