@WhitleyAwards you’ll no doubt be delighted to see King Charles flying the Monarch Butterfly on his latest portrait. A happy coincidence … ? Or artful marketing? Either way, make the most of it !

Hugo Keith, "Regarding Marcus Rashford's free school meals.. Patrick Vallance's diary suggests that either you or the chief whip said: good working people pay for their children to eat and don't want freeloaders. Did you or anybody else say those words?" Rishi Sunak, "I did not say those words. I do not recollect anyone saying those words. My concern throughout the pandemic was that we had support in place for the most vulnerable" #CovidInquiry

OK, a difficult subject that opens myself up to accusations of racism (which I certainly am not), but I'd like to know why so many 2nd generation immigrants that have gone into political life in the UK hold such right wing views and, hypocritically, are so anti immigration themselves. Care to answer @RishiSunak @SuellaBraverman @pritipatel @benhabib6?

This is the #climatechange I’m referring to 👆… if you can read a graph, any rational person will realise it’s pretty damned serious.
Professor Mark Maslin 👋 𝕏@ProfMarkMaslin

#ClimateChange is exceptional and caused by human greenhouse gas emissions We are causing #globalwarming 100 times faster than past natural changes We are taking Earth’s climate way beyond natural limits, with carbon dioxide and temperatures levels not seen for 3 million years

Europe is burning; UK records wettest July on record. Both extremes exacerbated by #climatechange say scientists. The Brit response? Book a quick flight to the continent escape the UK rain and get a bit of sun. When will we learn? bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

War in #Cameroon continues into its 6th year (2017-)! Efforts by Swiss (2019-2022) & Canadians (2022-) to facilitate process to end bloodshed have constantly been sidelined by President Biya's government. Why? No consequences for pursuing military option. foreignpolicy.com/2023/07/06/cam…

When children are not in school, or when they combine school and work, parents are blamed for not appreciating the value of schooling. But research suggests that they are well aware of the realities – both good and bad – of schooling. theconversation.com/child-labour-o…
