So. so sad. Wonderful friend & colleague. Huge knowledge & love for Turkey. Fierce defender of journalists threatened by govts. Immensely kind to me as young focorr in Ankara. Excellent @ft financial reporter in London. RIP dear David
Very sad to learn that David Barchard, a former @FT Turkey correspondent, died on Christmas Day. His knowledge of this country was phenomenal, and he went out of his way to be kind and supportive to many younger journalists. A great loss.

Never been compared to the pope before 😂 But lovely tweet, thank you
The writing is beautiful, the spirit soars as @hughcarnegy describes looking up to the tops of the tallest #redwoods. And I’m reminded of @Pontifex #LaudatoSi. The trees survive nature’s fires, but they can’t survive logging. We need to care for our earth.
