There has never been a time when corruption and malpractice has been so prevalent – yet the big scandals of our era are in danger of going unreported.

Boris Johnson and Michael Gove are former journalists, and the pliant right-wing press machine has given them an easy ride. Byline Times has stood apart from the rest, holding this Government to account without fear or favour.

We have already:

• Broken the COVID cronyism scandal, involving billions of pounds in Government contracts awarded to Conservative Party donors and associates
• Revealed the secret plan to share your GP data – forcing the Government into a U-turn
• Exposed Boris Johnson’s herd immunity strategy, and uncovered the dark money fuelling those demanding weaker COVID restrictions
• Unpicked and dismantled the confected cultural war that has been stoked by Government ministers and is fuelling oligarch-owned media platforms like GB News
• Covered the miscarriages of justice involved in the Daniel Morgan murder

The Byline Intelligence Team is run by award-winning journalist Iain Overton, and brings together some of the sharpest young investigative journalists in the UK. We want to unearth malpractice wherever it exists and deliver hard-hitting investigations that expose corruption, climate change denial, dark money, dodgy data grabs, military secrecy and overreach, and the truth about rampant inequality.
