National Emergency Briefing
National Emergency Briefing@nebriefing·
Dear @BBCNews @itvnews @Channel4News @5_News 🔔This is all across local news. The government hasn't yet briefed the public on the severe threats from climate change and nature loss, so civil society is taking matters into its own hands. Articles from last 10 days👇
National Emergency Briefing@nebriefing

What if the whole country saw the full picture? This is a national emergency. The impacts are already here. But the solutions exist. Across the UK, communities are watching The People’s Emergency Briefing & discussing what to do next. Find a screening → nebriefing.org/screening-map

Sir David Attenborough is not just a cuddly old man educating us about butterflies and bears, he warns us that you, me all of us, may not make it through the coming years if we don’t reverse the damage to the planet.

Sexual and Gender-based violence to forcibly displace Palestinians dates back to the Nakba. And it continues.
UN Special Procedures@UN_SPExperts

UN experts call on #Israel to immediately end all practices of sexual & gender-based violence against #Palestinians and hold perpetrators accountable - dismayed at the inaction of the international community that permits total impunity. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…

🚨 May 3 is the World Press Freedom Day More than 300 journalists were killed in Gaza since October 2023. UN Special Rapporteur @Irenekhan warned that Israel appears to be following a "deliberate strategy" & the aim is not only to kill journalists but to “kill the story.”

Palestine Solidarity Campaign
🚨 START POINT ANNOUNCED - NAKBA 78 - March for Palestine United against the Far Right ⏰ Sat, 16 May, 12PM 📍 Exhibition Road, London On Saturday May 16th we need everyone who can make it to be in London for this crucial demonstration. We will march to commemorate the Nakba – for 78 years, Palestinians have been subjected to a racist system of oppression including ethnic cleansing, settler-colonialism, apartheid and genocide.  We march to reaffirm our commitment to the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people, including the refugees’ right to return home. We march against the far right in Britain who glorify Israel’s racism and brutality. Our unity and solidarity is stronger than their hatred and division. Stand with the Palestinian people whose demand for justice is as important now as ever before.

One of Orwell's nightmares materialised would be this: potential war criminals and arm manufacturers implicated in a genocide allowed to roam and operate freely, while citizens get arrested for opposing a genocide.
Defend Our Juries@DefendOurJuries

BREAKING: Mass arrests under the Terrorism Act in Trafalgar Square, as hundreds defy the ban on Palestine Action. The police are knowingly unlawfully arresting peaceful protestors for holding placards which say: "I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action"

Helen Bevan@HelenBevan·
Organisations are not "fungible". “Fungibility” is an assumption that if you redesign an organisation & replace one set of people with a different set, you will still get equivalent outputs. This mistaken belief underlies many organisational restructures: that you can redistribute roles, reporting lines & teams without meaningful loss. I've been reading "Communities Are Not Fungible", a recent essay by @JoanWesten7568. She examines 1960s urban renewal, when planners believed demolishing old neighbourhoods & rehousing residents would allow communities to reform. They didn't. The residents moved. The community did not. A community is not a set of people: it is a historically produced web of relationships between them. Destroy the web, & you have strangers in a building. The parallel to organisational life is uncomfortable. When we restructure, we may preserve many of the people but destroy the relational infrastructure that made them effective. The informal trust that lets someone ask for help. The shared knowledge of who to call when a process stalls. The accumulated understanding of each other's judgment. These live in relationships, not individuals. Redrawing an org chart doesn't transfer them. Research backs this up. Tacit knowledge - the "knowing how" driving real-world performance - depends on trust to flow. Break those relationships & you block the transfer. Studies show informal networks persist along old lines long after formal structures change, creating tension between old loyalties & new mandates. Social capital is the value created by connectedness. It can be destroyed in restructuring & take years to rebuild — a cost that almost never appears in a business case. What leaders can do to protect collective value: 1. Audit informal networks before redesigning formal structures. Use, eg., System Network Analysis or Relational Coordination. Breaking key network nodes causes capability losses no productivity model captures. 2. Treat relational capital as a real cost. Business cases for restructuring rarely account for social capital destruction. Making it visible leads to better decisions & stronger cases for change. 3. Design around high-value relationships. Identify relationships carrying the most trust & history & actively design the new structure to protect them while enabling necessary change. 4. Invest deliberately in building new relationships. Create conditions for them to form through shared work, peer learning & social connection. 5. Give explicit attention to belonging & psychological safety for everyone (not just those who lose or change roles): This creates conditions for the discretionary effort that makes new structures succeed. 6. Slow down at the point of irreversibility. Ask not only "what do we gain?" but "what do we lose - & can we recover it?" The value of an organisation is not the sum of its people's individual capabilities. It is the web of relationships between them. That web is not fungible. Link to Joan Westenberg's essay: joanwestenberg.com/communities-ar…. Thanks to @charlie_psych who sent me the essay.

To everyone in the UK - this could absolutely happen to you at any time. Last year one of our leading climate scientists Prof @HayleyJFowler warned the U.K. could see 2/3 of a years worth of rainfall in two days - enough to wash away cars and homes - not in 50 years time - but now. This was not reported by the media @bbcnews @itvnews @skynews @ITNProductions

The world’s most respected climate scientist issues alarming remarks. I bet 99% of the media have no idea who he is. He hasn’t been on Big Brother or I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here…

44°C in Arizona… in March. Let that sink in. Records aren’t just breaking — they’re collapsing. This isn’t natural variability. This is human-driven warming, and it’s speeding up. End war - come together and build climate mitigation urgently.
