One of the star performers for forest restoration in #Madagascar is the genus Canarium - especially because it's fruits are a favourite food for lemurs. This young tree was planted just 2 years ago. @MoBot_Research

The amazing v recent work by Berger and others - which strongly suggests our barely hominin relatives with much smaller brains than Neanderthals may nonetheless have been capable of complex conceptual thought. #HomoNaledi nhm.ac.uk/discover/news/…

@oxford_brookes Somewhat hypocritical to be sharing this now of all times when the department is about to be decimated by redundancies as a result of bad financial management and lies. @BrookesUCU have you seen this? #saveourlecturers

A rousing performance of 'Fairytale of New York' was given by Glen Hansard and Lisa O'Neill at the funeral of Shane MacGowan in Nenagh, Co Tipperary. The performance was greeted by cheers inside and outside the church | rte.ie/b/1420857

Just WHAT is happening to the UK? I know it has an imperialist past, etc, but there's so much great stuff and people there too. It must be utterly heartbreaking to be one of the many millions of sound, decent Brits and have to watch the Tories ripping your society apart.

Home Office confirms.... If a UK Citizen wants to marry a foreign person and then live in the UK together.... They can only do so if the UK Citizen is in the top 25% of earners.. Read that again. We are NOT equal in Tory policy law
