Reflecting on this amazing project , I'm overflowing with pride to see our dream for better sleeping arrangements for these incredible orphans coming to fruition. Thanks to all your generosity, our partners and supporters, we've ensured every child has a bed and mattress. But our work is far from over. It breaks my heart to see food provisions dwindling, leaving some kids with only white rice once a day 😔 Let's keep the momentum going by donating to @ReviveCongo at revivecongo.org/donate. Together, we can make a difference in these children's lives. #ReviveCongo #MakeADifference #Congo #orphanage

🚨Guillem Balague has said it perfectly… absolutely spot on. Two things bother me about the narrative building around Arsenal. First, we're told constantly that the Premier League is the most competitive league in the world. Fine. So what does it mean to be consistently fighting for the title in that environment? You can't celebrate the league's brutal competitiveness and then dismiss sustained title challenges as not good enough. Pick one. Second, and in my opinion this matters more, failure in elite sport is not losing. Luis Enrique said it. Many others have said versions of it. Failure is not trying again. It's accepting the ceiling. It's going through the motions. Arteta has never done that. Every setback has been fuel for the next attempt. The problem is social media runs on binary outcomes. Win or fail. Hero or fraud. No room for nuance. No room for the manager who rebuilt a club into genuine title contenders and is still hungry for more. Simeone has been at Atlético for over a decade. Two league titles, two Champions League finals. Still no European Cup. Nobody serious calls that failure. They call it one of the great managerial tenures in modern football. And I'm convinced that given 14 years like Simeone, Mikel will win more leagues than him. Arteta may or may not win the league this year. He may not lift the Champions League this year or next. But as long as he keeps pushing, keeps trying, keeps competing at this level, failure isn't what this is. Find another name for it.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK So it’s not about “feeling sorry” for people because of who they are. It’s about choosing to understand people, even when their life looks different to yours.

I’m sorry I don’t understand why. Why should I be empathetic towards someone because of their religion or sexuality? I’m empathetic towards people with dementia. I’m empathetic towards the starving kids in Africa. I’m empathetic towards the street kids in India. I’m no empathetic towards someone because of their chosen superstitious beliefs or because they want to illegally land in my country. I’m not empathetic towards imports who commit crimes. You are empathetic towards someone because they have an infliction which causes people to feel sympathetic towards them for some reason. Not because they’re gay or straight because they’re Muslim or atheist.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK At the same time, empathy doesn’t mean excusing harmful behaviour. If someone commits a crime, that’s a separate issue accountability still matters regardless of who they are.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK For example, someone’s religion or sexuality might not matter to you personally, but for them it can shape how they’re treated, the opportunities they get, or the challenges they face. Empathy in that context just means being aware of that not necessarily agreeing with it.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK You mentioned being empathetic towards people with dementia or those facing poverty and that’s important. But empathy doesn’t have to be limited to only the most extreme suffering. It can also apply to understanding what others go through in everyday life.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK Empathy isn’t about agreeing with someone’s beliefs, lifestyle, or actions. It’s about recognising that other people are human, with their own experiences, challenges, and realities even when they’re different from yours.

@Jo_Marney @MetroUK You are showing an elderly white woman empathy without reason but you won’t show empathy to migrants / Muslims or a gay person without reason - yeah it’s Ironic

No, I am not defending anything at all. I am saying that neither the police nor the media know that this old lady doesn't have dementia. She's elderly and behaving irrationally. That's not ''defending'' anything. As for ''empathy''. I am empathetic for people when I have a reason to be empathetic towards them.

@MetroUK So this woman could very well be suffering from some kind of mental health crisis or brain problem yet the media and the police plaster her face everywhere. An important commits a serious crime and we aren’t even allowed a description. Go figure.

🚨 MEET 26-year-old newly invited Super Eagles striker. Philip Otele - 0 goal in 6 games at Hamburger 🇩🇪 5 goals in 20 games at Basel in 🇨🇭. Not decent enough as a striker. I will pick Tolu Arokodare with 3 goals in England 🇬🇧 ahead of this dude.

They were girls who went to school to learn, with hopes and dreams for their future. Today, their lives were brutally cut short. I am heartbroken and appalled by the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, including reports that a girls’ school in southern Iran was hit, resulting in the injury and death of many girls. The killing of civilians, especially children, is unconscionable, and I condemn it unequivocally. My heart is with the children, families and communities affected by escalation across the region. I stand firmly against violence and the targeting of schools and civilians. I call for the escalation of violence across the region to end. Justice and accountability must follow. All states and parties must uphold their obligations under international law to protect civilians and safeguard schools. Every child deserves to live and learn in peace.
