Doubtful notability, likely self-promotion. The only sources are to his employer's staff directory and to the alumni list at his school. "External links" only links to his Twitter and Facebook accounts.  kashmiri TALK  00:12, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep -- BBC Foreign correspondents frequently broadcast as part of BBC natioanl and international news bulletins and programmes. They are accordingly certainly notable.  I do not necessarily take that view of those who report merely on regional bulletins.  It is not a good article, and needs a lot of improvement, including better sourcing, but that is no reason for deletion.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:05, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
