@David_PhoenixVC David you will be brilliant!

This is breaking my heart tonight. Despite every international forum and institution set up to protect human rights, women’s remain a secondary priority. Where’s the ICC on Taliban leadership? Where is the UN? Where are the signatories to the ECHR? Where is ANYBODY?

Emotional footage from Afghanistan shows Afghan female medical students and their instructor in tears, consoling each other after the Taliban banned them from continuing their studies. The new directive shuts women out of medicine—the last field still open to them.

Study arts and humanities because you love them (and so do employers, by the way) theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

In today’s @thetimes I’ve written a data-led defence of studying the humanities. Today’s children have a clear line of sight to their future careers, and are shunning humanities subjects as a result. I think that’s a bad idea. thetimes.com/article/bded1a…
