The Guardian

I have written for the Guardian and its sister Sunday newspaper, the Observer.

You can read my investigation into the illegal “pushbacks” of refugees in Greece here, my longread into a radical democracy movement emerging in France here, exclusive reports about on mental health in prisons here, student counselling in universities here, race hate crimes on British railways here, or drug smuggling by prison officers here. I’ve also reported from Myanmar on issues such as the deadly jade trade, which you can read here.

I’ve also done things like some playful data analysis of Shakespeare's legacy here, as well as my interview with writer Simon Parkin here, and my feature on Philadelphia artist Caitlin McCormack's creepy crochets here.

Here’s the Guardian profile page for Peter Yeung.
