🔴 Behind me, you can see Oleshky: the town no one wanted to hear about nine months ago.
Now, the world knows but the ordeal is not over.
The next week ceasefire will be used for a “press tour” to whitewash Russia's war crimes.
Don't fall for Russian propaganda.

A reminder:
It is completely fine to be pro-Palestine and against Hamas.
Supporting Palestinian rights does not require supporting Hamas.
You can stand for Palestinian freedom, dignity, statehood, and human rights while also opposing Hamas, its ideology, and its actions.
According to recent polls, the majority of Palestinians are against Hamas.

As the world celebrates Victory in Europe Day, let us not forget how World War II began — with a deal.
In 1939, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. This agreement set the stage for the joint destruction of Europe.
Hitler invaded Poland from the west, and Stalin followed from the east. The USSR then attacked Finland, annexed the Baltics, and seized territory from Romania. Between 1939 and 1941, the Soviets supplied Nazi Germany with oil, grain, and raw materials — fueling its conquest of Europe.
Stalin was not Hitler’s victim. He was his partner in crime. Together, they ignited a war that would claim over 70 million lives.
Truth matters more than propaganda.
While the European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) recommends Covid-19 vaccination for ages 65 and over, the UK remains unprepared in this current rising Omicron wave with most <75s remaining unprotected

I don’t get why Laurence Fox, Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson are all celebrating D-Day when their side lost

I'm a pensioner and I won't vote for this corrupt party. They stole my EU membership from me and I will NEVER forgive them. They're a self-serving, self-aggrandising, cheating, lying bunch of chancers who've stolen our prosperity, our reputation and our position in the world.

In other excellent news I have abolished the worst waiting lists in NHS history - nearly 8 million people at the current count - by redefining these patients as not so much waiting as failing to progress kinetically. I promised I’d cut waiting lists - and I’ve delivered. #NHS 💙
We should be calling out racism (and using it’s real name). There are not two kinds of racism, one of lesser import than the other:
Why is antisemitism so rife in UK academic settings? I have never found student life more difficult

. @RishiSunak says he will would "not allow a foreign court to block these flights". The ECHR isn’t a foreign court. It is an international court of which the UK is a founding member. His characterization is duplicitous and misleading.
Integrity, professionalism & transparency?

The @bbcnews prejudice wld be farcical if the circumstances were not so tragic & the bias so poisonous.
Israel brings in Arab speaking medical teams & equipment to care for Palestinian patients.
BBC reports Israel was targeting Arab-speaking medical teams.
Watch the apology
For the umpteenth time since the war started, the @BBC has had to apologize for reporting libelous information about Israel.
Honestly, I don’t know why they even bother apologizing at this point…

For all interested in the tipping point of the Atlantic overturning circulation : here's Henk Dijkstra's recent talk.
The tipping point has been confirmed in a state-of-art climate model, and a novel early warning indicator suggests we're heading there.

The co-authors have published a remarkably detailed analysis of global warming in the pipeline: academic.oup.com/oocc/articl…. This analysis of the trends in temperature and greenhouse gas levels over the past 67 million years, and the last 800,000 is stark

This is where we are at right now . . . and this is not what my relatives fought and died for in the last century . . . nor what our youth should tolerate now . What has this nation honestly become ? I feel utterly ashamed watching this @streetskitchen @BigIssue

New study find that grazing and herbivores are more of a hinderance than a help in restoring vegetation
The scientists findings "suggest that excluding herbivores or reintroducing predators may aid restoration efforts in many locations"

A visual reminder that an LTN is simply a way to return our streets back to how they used to be before the cars took over.

Stop putting sh*t in our lake.
The message is simple. I will be outside United Utilities information centre every Monday from 9am - 10am until a commitment is made to stop putting sewage into Windermere.
We already have those wanting to join the strike so please head to savewindermere.com if you have any ideas.
@Feargal_Sharkey I would love it if you would consider joining me for an hour.
@gretathunberg feel free to come too…

Hello @EveningStandard I see here that you say the policing bill for these protests has ‘hit £15 M’ . As you’ve been doing some adding up could you tell me the cost to the public of the catastrophic storms Ciaran and Babet ? Quite a bit more I imagine . . . @JustStop_Oil
