@AlisonFisk Clearly for serving avocado…

Luxurious duck-shaped vessel expertly carved from a single piece of rock crystal around 3,500 years ago! From Bronze Age Mycenae, it is said to be an exquisite example of imported Minoan stoneworking. Probably used to hold oils or cosmetics. National Archaeological Museum, Athens, Greece. 📷 by me #Archaeology

@CarlBovisNature I asked Durstons to explain what happened and make sure it is not repeated. A brief response saying they take things like this seriously, then nothing. Have asked them again

Adorable pair of Sand Martins at their nest hole. 😍 Taken at Durston's on the Somerset Levels.... sadly a few days after I took this photo, the peat mound they were nesting in was cleared. 😔🐦

The EU claims to care about Gaza and human rights — but right now, behind closed doors, they’re backing down on real measures that could stop Israel’s crimes. On Tuesday, July 15, EU leaders will vote on whether to suspend trade with Israel and finally hold it accountable. They just struck a deal with Israel to allow some aid deliveries — and now they’re hiding behind that deal as an excuse for inaction on Tuesday. Don’t let them. EU leaders: Suspend Israel. No more excuses. @kajakallas, @Antonio_Tajani, @jnbarrot, @radek_sikorski, @jowadephul, @BMeinl, @CasparVeldkamp, and @SimonHarrisTD

Countries like Ghana are "fast fashion graveyards", with 15 million items of clothing dumped there weekly from labels like M&S, Primark and H&M. The UK is the worst polluter. Please sign the petition to show your support for a Global Plastic Treaty act.gp/42MePgc

@katephillips29 Hope you feel better soon. Rest as much as you can.

I haven’t posted for ages as have been having an eventful time…after feeling rubbish for ages with various odd symptoms, I’ve ended up in hospital this last week and will be here a while longer. So, no more historic building pics etc from me for a bit.

Did you know the UK still imports goods from settlements in the West Bank? This is legitimising war crimes. The UK has an obligation under intl law to act. Please remind your MP of that. Email yours here: amnesty.org.uk/actions/mp-ban…

@MichaelRosenYes If we're going to honour the right to ancestral lands for one people, we should honour the right to all. Which is going to result in a lot of migration.

If we keep saying 'our ancestral lands' again and again, does it become a fact? Or a law? I think it's based on what God said, but are facts and laws based on what God said. Does anyone really know what God said? What if it was human beings saying that that's what God said?

Donald Trump could be given the honour of addressing the UK parliament. We can't let him spout his idiocy and hate in the heart of our democracy. MPs are pushing back - now it’s our turn. Please sign the petition to stop this national embarrassment: 38d.gs/kwpg

Anyway, off now to another day in a crumbling court in a broken criminal justice system, to sit with weeping victims of crime and tell them their case - already 5 years old - can’t go ahead. Creating this chaos and then cosplaying as a vigilante does not make you tough on crime

I don't know why this needs to be said, but apparently it does: What the US president is doing is corrupt, unconstitutional and undemocratic. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. What Israel is doing in Palestine is inhumane, illegal, genocide. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. We need to stop accepting this.

@swilkinsonbc I dont understand why UK and other governments persist in supporting a govt which is committing genocide.

Israeli tanks are firing intensely at the Indonesian Hospital in Northern Gaza: there are dozens of innocent wounded patients trapped inside qudsnen.co/?p=59746

Require MPs' attendance at parliamentary debates - Please sign the Petition! chng.it/zCJJ6dFfSR via @UKChange They work for us - let's remind them of this! The default should be they attend unless they post a suitable reason for absence - e.g. a constituency visit.

@TheProleStar @GreenJennyJones @LSRPlaid @RachelReevesMP Angela Rayner did not. Worth noting

@GreenJennyJones @LSRPlaid And disgusting that @rachelreevesmp and her fellow frontbench females should fall around laughing at Starmer speaking to a woman MP that way!

Dear @LSRPlaid It was a cheap jibe from Starmer and some of his MPs thought so too.

Oh no, white-shouldered house moths appearing. The larvae eat dried food supplies like cereals, but also wool, fur and feather, so watch out for your treasures

Coca-Cola’s magic ingredient could be funding monsters: A militia accused of genocide controls Sudan’s gum arabic trade – and Coke doesn’t disclose where theirs comes from. I just signed to demand they investigate. Please join me secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/gu…
