Nothing can reverse the horrific consequences of explosive weapons on children - lost lives, injuries, disabilities, psychological wounds and emotional toll.
That’s why we must continue calling on governments to end their use in populated areas. Join us by sharing this message.

Good morning from Thailand. Today’s plan…
🥘 Off to feed 80 street dogs myself
🏥 Workers here building the dog hospital
🧑🍳 Kitchen making food for 1300 dogs
✂️ 12 dogs already waiting for sterilizing
🤒 8 dogs under critical medical care
🌎 Around the world we will fund 300 dogs sterilizing operations today
The only bad part is I have to go to my desk and do boring things like admin and finding the money to pay for this as CEO after feeding the dogs! Would rather be with the dogs all day.
Have a lovely day everybody!!! ❤️

The plan for a Greater Israel extending over the West Bank into Lebanon and Syria laid out with great clarity by a senior government minister. This is of course completely illegal, goes against all the stipulations of International Law and should lead to immediate sanctions
Ihab Hassan@IhabHassane
At the inauguration of a new illegal settlement, Israel's Finance Minister Smotrich lays out his vision for a Greater Israel: “There will be expansion in Gaza that will extend our borders. In Lebanon, to the Litani, in Syria, Mount Hermon, parts of the north, south, and east.”

Physicist Brian Cox reminds us of a truth so profound it’s almost impossible to grasp: we are not just observers of the universe; we are a part of it that has finally woken up.
Every atom in your body; the carbon in your skin, the iron in your blood, the oxygen you breathe; was forged in the intense, ancient furnaces of dying stars. For billions of years, those atoms drifted through the cold void, only to find themselves, by some miracle of cosmic chance, arranged in a pattern that can think, feel, and dream.
As Carl Sagan famously said, we are a way for the cosmos to know itself. We are the means by which a universe of dust and gas suddenly starts writing symphonies, painting masterpieces, and asking where it came from.
It sounds unlikely, perhaps even impossible. But here we are, sitting on a small blue rock, having a conversation about it. And that might be the most extraordinary thing of all.

I signed this letter calling on British and Irish govs to take action on Israel’s continued violations of international law. Specifically: 1) the issuing of tenders to build a new illegal settlement in Jerusalem, and 2) the Israeli gov’s ban on international NGOs in Palestine.

"What is it going to take for this government to actually put robust sanctions on Israel? It is outrageous they are still enjoying diplomatic and trade privileges from the international community."

82% of the public want water utilities under social ownership and Thames Water will be available cheaply if the government simply lets it go bust. What - other than an ideological commitment to privatisation - is stopping this happening?

@TheNewsAgents @maitlis It's as 'understandable' as white settlers moving across America fearing the Apache, the Dakota and the Cherokee.

Israel finding that killing civilians in Lebanon is a bit of a hard sell. Not many people in the world think it’s a great idea.

Haaretz (Israeli newspaper) calls them 'Jewish terrorists'.

A video of Israeli settler terrorists brutally attacking Palestinians in the village of Jinba, in Masafer Yatta, in the West Bank, attempting to murder them. Today, instead of arresting them, the Israeli government rewarded them — approving new settlements on Palestinian land.

When we say that this is Israel's project, we get told we are fantasists, conspiracy theorists and antisemites. Then Smotrich says it, and they say, Smotrich is a looney outsider and it's never gonna happen.

I have just messaged @NetworkRail regarding them blocking Swift nest entrances on Chapel Milton viaducts.
I’ll let you know if they get back to me.
In the UK, it is illegal to block, damage, or destroy active swift nesting sites under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981!!

Heartbreaking.. 😭
These 4 nestling blackbirds were brought to us still in their nest, after the tree was chopped down and the parents never returned 😞
While gardening, if you find a nest, it is against the law to disturb the nest if it is active. Please stop any work #birds
