When you start digging into something, it gets messy fast. Screenshots everywhere, links you can't find again, an FOI you forgot to chase. I made this notebook because staying organised is half the job, and I LOVE a good notepad.

Every page is built to help you keep track of your own investigations: what you're asking, where you found it, what's fact and what's still a claim, and what you're still waiting on. I've also added Scouse Oracle Tips along the way.

You don't need a press pass to ask questions about public decisions. You just need to ask good ones, and keep a record of the answers.

What's inside

• Case overviews to start every investigation with one clear question
• Evidence logs for documents, links, dates and page numbers
• Fact, claim or question pages to keep what's proven separate from what's alleged
• FOI request trackers for deadlines, responses and follow ups
• Decision and contract trackers to follow the money from announcement to delivery
• Weekly intelligence briefs to stay on top of what's changed
• Questions to ask and plenty of field notes pages
• 14 Oracle's Tips including Follow the Money, Read the Small Print and Know Your Rights
