The cat's out of the bag... and I couldn't be more thrilled!
I am so excited to be joining
@GBNEWS
as their East of England Reporter. Lifelong dream. I can't wait to break stories across the region and to bring under-represented voices on air with me.
You deserve to be heard.
Our new East of England reporter is
@AmeliaHarperTV
, joining us from LBC’s East newsroom.
Amelia has a first class BSc and an MA in journalism but says it’s her dyslexia that helps her see the bigger perspective on stories, which is exactly what she’ll be bringing to GB News.
The launch of
@GBNEWS
’s half hourly news bulletins has been extremely exciting. I’m not going anywhere as a reporter but I can’t wait it be back presenting later this week. A personal, and genuine, thank you to
@AlStewartOBE
who has been such a gent, he deserves a shoutout👏🏻

@GBNEWS
@AlStewartOBE
I can’t wait to work with you. Funny story but we have actually met before and I’ve never forgotten it! I was actually doing work experience at ITV and I came and said hello and you were more than a gent. You said stick at it and you’ll succeed... and here I am!
I've just been on the phone to
@RaviSinghKA
of
@Khalsa_Aid
. He says there are 300 or so Afghanistanian Sikhs and Hindus sheltering in a Sikh temple about 20 minute from Kabul airport. They have food and water ok, and the Taliban is not mistreating them currently |
@GBNEWS
A new US backed £700m film and TV studios is coming to Hertfordshire. It’ll create 4,500 permanent jobs.
I’ll be on
@GBNEWS
talking about the announcement this morning and through the day
Before Boris Johnson does his tweet about the disgusting attack on Tory MP David Amess... saying how he's outraged about how violence has infected our politics.
Please remember that he was happy to use death threats as a tool to try to get Jo Cox's successor to support Brexit.
Gangs of “rural wraiths” are using e-scooters to steal from farms. They’re using them as the speedy, silent getaway vehicle. Overall rural crime has dropped by 20% over the pandemic, but thieves are now resorting to different tactics and targets. I’ll have more on

, Basildon.
I’m in Cambridge throughout today talking on
@GBNEWS
about the amazing research that’s being done at
@CUH_NHS
, particularly at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, finding another new life-saving COVID drug. It’s also set to have the region’s first long COVID clinic for children. Brilliant.
Very excited to be presenting tomorrow from 10am-4pm. It’s a big news day, with the top story being no Covid restrictions before the new year in England. See you then! 🎥
I've been told that brutal Sharia law is being upheld across Afghanistan. My source says that it's not happening so much in the capital Kabul, because the Taliban are under international scrutiny and they want to appear palatable.
@GBNEWS
(cont..)
I’m exceedingly excited that I’m going to report on the largest collection of Spitfires ever assembled under one roof at one time tomorrow on breakfast
@GBNEWS
. Actually exceedingly excited doesn’t cover it! Worth the very early alarm to see 12 iconic Spitfires
@IWMDuxford
🤩
I filmed today with a restaurant/bar who says it’s lost over 1,000 people in bookings in a week and a half. Another pub down the road, just doing drink, says it’s trading 50% down on pre-pandemic levels. Catch my report tomorrow on

'A tragic turn of events in what is a relatively quiet seaside area here in Essex...he is the second MP to be killed in such circumstances in the last five years.'
GB News reporter Amelia Harper reports live from the scene where Sir David Amess MP was killed earlier todays .
First studio live for
@GBNEWS
, and boy what a day. Head online to hear clips from my exclusive interview, from an Afghan interpreter who witnessed the terror attack. He was beaten by the Taliban & told me he wanted death rather than to go through a desperate escape at Abbeygate
My brilliant colleague
@ThatAlexWoman
. You’re amazing, kind and hilarious and you shouldn’t have have to go through this deplorable act of cowardice. I am so sorry that he hurt you like this, it’s unacceptable. Keep being you 👏🏻
I just noticed the chap with the hat near the end put his brolly over me! I remember registering out of the corner of my eye as I was live, but watching it back what a sweet thing to do

Today’s my last day at

Kudos to my colleagues in the East for sticking up amusing posters of disappointed presenters...
@mrjamesob
you look particularly sad 🤣
@Doctors_Vote
Hi I’m a news correspondent, could medical professionals send me a message if this type of email applies to you/you’ve experienced this?
@Doctors_Vote
I have sent you a message
So excited to be the
@GBNEWS
reporter on the live rota on Sunday night covering reaction to the FINALS BECAUSE WE BLOODY MADE IT🏴
I can just hear faint echoes out of the window of fans far away chanting football’s coming home and it’s fabulous
'To have 11 airworthy Spitfires under one roof and all with fantastic history… we’re quite excited about it.'
GB News East England Reporter Amelia Harper is at the Duxford Imperial War Museum talking to Graham Rodgers about their collection of airworthy Spitfire on display.
My biggest worry listening to
@POTUS
is that he says they have equipped Afghan security forces with trillions in investment over the last over two decades. Equipment, training and more.
And this is now in hands of the Taliban
Big police presence on Kensington High St to keep the Israel vigil outside Downing Street and the protest outside the Israeli embassy separate. Teen arrested, officer says that he spat in his face
The RSPCA have been caring for a number of seal pups that were separated from parents during storm Arwen.
GB News East of England reporter Amelia Harper has been to their rescue centre to see the eight new pups being cared for.
Just got off the phone with the
@instagram
press team. They say they didn't start the "post a pet pic/plant a tree"... so no trees are actually being planted. It was started by Plant a Tree Co who have since deleted the post because they can't plant the over 4m trees
Currently inside a locked MacDonalds near Rutland Showground seeing first hand the intimidation that’s happening towards staff here from visitors to the religious festival. I’m told this is mild. Manager told me some staff have been spat at with COVID threats 1/2
We wouldn’t be able to go live
@GBNEWS
without our fabulous camera operators showing all the reporters how it’s done ✅ these guys make it happen

Roll on 8pm!
🚨 I’m really excited to become a freelance News Correspondent for

on
@TheNewsDesk
with
@tnewtondunn
🚨 I am currently on a much needed long holiday but back on the telly very soon!
I’m here at what used to be Britain’s smallest pub on Freedom day! The Nutshell pub in Suffolk is a dinky 15x7 feet. It’s decided not to open indoors to keep staff safe but customers are enjoying pints outside |
@GBNEWS
How little you know. My father was in the forces so I know exactly how important it is to hear from them at the time. Do let me know when you contribute something to this internationally important conversation
This is the sort of behaviour that needs to be stopped, Police officers or any emergency service workers are entitled to eat where and when they want, and that's even if they get a chance! What an absolute sausage wallet this bloke is. Just another bellend with a camera.
Public trauma first aid kits are being unveiled today to increase survival rates in terror attacks & serious stabbings.
@TerrorismPolice

@stjohnambulance
and
@ThecitizenAID
(group founded by civilian & military doctors) want venues like stadiums to install them |
@GBNEWS
I’ll be coming on
@GBNEWS
straight after
@grantshapps
discussing the latest government travel announcement. I’ll be speaking to a travel agent in Mr Schapps’ constituency, who has invited him to visit them twice now to discuss travel, getting her immediate reaction
Ew, I’m sitting in my little camping chair preparing for my next TV live and a man comes up for a chat which then turned into him hitting on me, commenting on body parts, before getting grumpy at me when I uncomfortably refused to give him my number. For the 5th time, no means no
I always feel emotional on this day every year. My dad served in the RAF and so I’ve always felt incredibly proud of our servicewomen and men. They deserve the utmost respect and we must always remember those who have served and who serve currently.
Lest we forget.
The stories of Afghan interpreters at today’s protest outside the Home Office were humbling to hear. They told me their families face possible death now, because they worked for UK forces. Some relatives have been been taken by the Taliban, and not all have been returned
@GBNEWS
Just breathed a sigh of relief. One of my Afghan contacts (a British citizen) said he had to flee his home with his family due to the Taliban. I’ve not been able to get hold of him for days. But the WhatsApp ticks have just gone blue.
So I know he’s alive.
It’s not even 8am and I’ve already been prolifically sworn at by two men, who think it’s big to pull up and hurl abuse at me, while I’m standing there on my own having just finished a live report
I’ll be at St Albans market tomorrow afternoon for some filming, if you see me come and say hi and tell me what you want to hear about on
@GBNEWS
from the East of England!
4 days to go!
@PanjshirProvin1
@AhmadMassoud01
Hello I am a TV reporter for
@GBNEWS
, A national British television channel. Please could we use this footage? I would like to know more about the resistance effort
I’ll be talking on
@GBNEWS
today about a 73 strong elephant trail in Luton raising money for
@KeechHospice
. This one is called Flypast, celebrating aeroplane building in the area.
MP Sir David Amess has been stabbed in major incident at his constituency surgery in Leigh. The Tory MP for Southend West was holding a surgery at the Belfairs Methodist Church. A man reportedly ran into the church in the last hour, before the MP was stabbed "several times".
I'll have an exclusive interview with a woman who has been taking part in the protests in Kabul from 11.30am on
@GBNEWS
. She says it's "like living in hell".
I'm also being told by contacts that the Taliban have taken down internet in northern areas in Kabul to prevent protests
To anyone thinking that TV is glamorous in any way… I spent 15 mins in an underground car park drying my feet with paper towel because I was drenched through from standing in the rain for 4.5 hours 👟 blow drying my hair was pointless!
The “pingdemic” is creating short term staff shortages, but now businesses are reporting permanent shortages due to EU workers leaving UK hospitality to go back home.. and they are not come back. This restaurant serves the most covers in Hertfordshire. I’ll be on
@GBNEWS
today
This will be an interesting test for GB News – the fall of Afghanistan affects thousands of British families in many different ways, but with no foreign desk or international correspondents – will they even cover this massive story happening abroad?
This is one of the 5 journalists from
@Etilaatroz
that was arrested and beaten by the Taliban today while covering a women’s protest in Kabul. I’ll have exclusive audio with one of their colleagues about it on Friday on
@GBNEWS
I’m here all day in Bedfordshire on
@GBNEWS
going through a new climate report into the Government’s preparedness for inevitable climate change. I’m in Odell which was hit hugely by flooding last Christmas.
And yes I’m severely regretting my clothing choice 🥵
'He knows everybody. He remembers details of what he's done for them. It's a terrible shock.'
Residents of Leigh-on-Sea pay their respects to Sir David Amess at a vigil held in his honour.
Today marks our 10th week on air!
Already we’ve:

Hi Hamid - I am a TV Reporter for a national British news channel. I would like to speak to you about the resistance effort. I was the first one to break the news of the gathering in Panjshir on news channels over here. Please do get in touch
I’m on
@GBNEWS
today talking about the critical incidents declared by at least 6 hospital trusts, I’ll have the figures on cases/hospitalisations and all of the latest for the NHS after last nights No. 10 press conference
Supt Adam Slonecki, from Specialist Support:
‘Due to a number of incidents that have occurred in the Oakham area we have made a number of arrests and will continue to progress enquires. We would like to thank the local community for their continued support.”
We are all working so hard to bring
@GBNEWS
to air!
I’ll be your East of England reporter (Beds, Bucks, Herts, Northants, Cambridgeshire, Peterborough, Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk) and I want to hear from you about what matters to you. 1/2
Very disappointing that an institution I much admire -
@OpenUniversity
- has chosen to participate in an advertising boycott of
@GBNEWS
- especially with presenters like
@AlStewartOBE
&
@GloriaDePiero
& their work on education. This decision is wrongheaded & should be reversed.
