@HelenClarkNZ This is the summary from the UK government's global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security assessment . The political class in developed countries know what's coming, but they do nothing. gov.uk/government/pub…

Extraordinary that a minister from a minor party in #NZ’s conservative coalition government overrode official advice to the Minister for #ClimateChange, leading to #NZ refusing to support a road map away from fossil fuels at #COP30 in Brazil. Dinosaur 🦕 rnz.co.nz/news/political…

@SystemUpdate_ @ggreenwald @RepMattGaetz How about framing the issue as many people actually see it, not "liberal v conservative", but "competent v incompetent". What concerns many people, not just "elites", is that people who get jobs based on partisan loyalty to an individual aren't fit for public office.

.@ggreenwald on why @RepMattGaetz's nomination as Attorney General threatens both establishment Republicans & Democrats:

@publicaddress Just going to the Free Speech Union website as I'm sure they will be outraged and critical of the government for this ... Funny, nothing there. Maybe the'll get around to it after their important work defending the misgendering trans people

" ... the Beehive complained to Newsroom about his persistent and forceful questioning of the Prime Minister, with suggestions it was rude and police at the event had been watching the reporter." Do not bring the police into it because a journalist made you uncomfortable.

Are we getting numb and blind on the horrors of Gaza? Never have @UN warnings been as desperate as now on the disaster in northern Gaza. All proportions of self defense are lost in the massive death, destruction, relocation and starvation of civilians carried out by Israel.

The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying.

🚨 @hrw urges #Israel to end campaign to destroy lifesaving UN Palestinian aid agency @UNRWA. New legislation would bar UNRWA from #Gaza & West Bank. UNRWA is crucial in Gaza, where Israeli authorities have used starvation as a weapon of war, a war crime.

New report highlights failing humanitarian response to the crisis in northern Ethiopia, citing ineffective leadership and strategy. Given the findings, @antonioguterres should establish an internal review panel of @UN actions in Ethiopia. reliefweb.int/report/ethiopi…

The UN humanitarian coordination forum @iascch has released its evaluation of the int'l humanitarian response to the #Tigray conflict in N. #Ethiopia, describing it as a "system failure" marked by a "total lack of accountability." 🧵 reliefweb.int/report/ethiopi…

Helen Clark welcomes the decision of several @UNRWA donors to maintain funding so vital humanitarian assistance can still reach the people of #Gaza.

⚠️When the response to war crimes are war crimes civilians pay the price. ⚠️But these rules are not a nicety. ⚠️They are universal. ⚠️And binding. 📩Read more from @BirgitMSchwarz, in today's Daily Brief: trib.al/Zph1nLM

"My job gives me a deep sense of purpose...and a sense of hope that an Afghan girl can make it out there in the world." unocha.org/story/afghanis… No easy answers in #Afghanistan but solidarity w/ female colleagues & the women and girls who depend on them must be a priority.

500,000 people dead. The war in #Tigray is taking an almost unimaginable toll. Ethiopians need peace and aid organizations urgently need full access to prevent more people dying. theglobeandmail.com/world/article-…
