About this site

News from the Margins is an independent publication launched in February 2026 by Lucy Williams. If you subscribe today, (its free), you'll get full access to new content when it's available.

I'm writing to find the human in a world of border controls and I'm hoping this collection of stories will encourage some debate. I'm frustrated that the people I know and care about are not represented in the news or in political discussion so I'm just trying to comment on the world as I see it.

By signing up, you'll get access to stories and past publications as well as links, data and things I think are interesting.

I'd like this site to be an interesting place to share ideas and resources so please comment, discuss and suggest other things to read and write about.
