This morning, Ms. Rachel and I visited District 2 Pre-K Center, where we sang and read with the wonderful students and educators. We also discussed universal childcare - and how we're making it happen for NYC!

I'm tired, heartbroken & angry. A few of us (Politics educators/researchers) were organising a teach-in on Gaza supported by @sheffielducu. A teach-in for our students where we were talking about our research on Palestine & related topics (1/n)

If I recall rightly, in the old days, when I was a young journalist, this would have been considered quite a news story: Former British ambassador flees UK for fear of arrest over political views. But maybe my memory is fading, and this was always seen as quite normal.
The break in communication was because I am now safely back in Greece. The sky is darkening for dissidents in the UK. I have not left permanently, but so many people linked to me have been arrested this last few weeks, I fancy a change of climate for a little while.

More truth in 1 minute, 17 seconds than @BBCNews will ever manage. 👏
There is nothing constructive about the pot calling the kettle black. If the EU is going to start naming "state sponsors of terrorism," let's do it... Let's recognise West-sponsored terrorism too, and make sure 🇺🇲🇬🇧🇫🇷🇪🇺 and their pals 🇮🇱🇹🇷🇸🇦 & the rest are all on the list.

That’s an amazingly diverse Cabinet: the first time in history all four horsemen of the apocalypse have held the top posts (also a promotion for Pestilence, congrats!)
Breaking news: Rather than erect a statue to commemorate Boris Johnson’s illustrious premiership - a sewage outfall at Bexhill beach has been named after the politician. A spokesman said “this conduit of effluent will become his lasting memorial.”

Audrey White @RedRosa91940184 welcomed @Keir_Starmer to #Liverpool today & spoke for the many who are looking for a real alternative to the #ToryLiars rather than a Starmer mark 2 version of Tory #Austerity. #nhscrisis #CostOfLivingCrisis @UKLabour @bbcmerseyside #ItWasAScam

BREAKING: Turns out we could vaccinate the entire world 7x over with the £37 billion Serco test and trace budget. Let that sink in.

Two million deaths but where is the political accountability for mishandling a pandemic response? Is it social murder, manslaughter, misconduct in public office? In a new editorial, I explore these issues and how accountability is possible @bmj_latest bmj.com/content/372/bmj.n314

My point is that my t-shirt is much less offensive than what Boris Johnson has said about black people, Muslims, gay men, working class men and his disastrous handling of Covid-19, not to mention Brexit. Come on @BTP , priorities please. #FuckBoris

"If they actually cared about staff, they have the money to fix this dispute." Sheffield University lecturer and union rep Robyn Orfitelli is on strike today and says that university management is "causing this problem".

Staff at universities are striking over the next eight days, and I stand with them. University staff deserve fair pay, secure contracts, reasonable workloads and decent pensions. Labour will end the marketisation of education, and we'll put staff and students first.

“There is a growing mass mobilisation of world opinion... against oil" and this is "perhaps the greatest threat to our industry". OPEC calls the school strike movement and climate campaigners their “greatest threat”. Thank you! Our biggest compliment yet! afp.com/en/news/826/climate-…
