Daniel is a senior German journalist, born in Munich into a Jewish Shoah survivor family. He is the contractual Great Britain Correspondent of taz, die Tageszeitung, Germany’s left-of-centre, independent and 5th largest daily newspaper. He started his engagement with taz in 2012 and has been reporting since from London and other parts of Britain without break. He covered the entire period of the UK referendum on Brexit and its aftermaths and the Conservative-led years since 2010, including under Boris Johnson and Theresa May and the pandemic. He also has reported from international locations.
His reports from the regions in taz have become characteristic icons in their ability to allow local voices to come to the forefront and finding corners of Britain few ever reported on in Britain, let alone Germany. He also wrote reliably on Britain’s diversity, social justice, environmental issues, racism and discrimination. The German Jewish Jüdische Allgemeine uses him regularly for over a decade. He also worked and volunteered in many positions regarding diversity and equality, civil rights and community representation.
Daniel already reported from London for DW-English radio as a freelancer in the early 2000s. The list of other publications he appeared in is long. He worked briefly in technical roles for BBC Radio Four but soon became a correspondent for taz. He is currently awaiting the publication of a book about the persecution of his family in the Holocaust and its effects and has plans for other books on racism.
He graduated from SOAS in Politics of Africa and History of the Modern Third World, and holds two postgraduate master degrees, from Goldsmiths College (Contemporary Urban Studies) and Brunel University (Sports Coaching),
