More footage emerges from Gaza amid the temporary truce showcasing how Israel has been methodically wiping out as much of the besieged enclave as possible.
There's a reason the Biden admin were worried people would demand a ceasefire when they get to see these clips! Quick🧵...

Yesterday evening a balcony collapsed in onto the street in my apartment building, just 4 years after construction.
The building, whose freeholder is Barking & Dagenham Council, was constructed by @BouyguesUK on behalf of @lbbdcouncil ‘s social and affordable housing company, BD Reside.
All 414 properties are now considered “unsafe” and we will need to erect scaffolding in across the entire estate to keep ourselves and the public safe.

I keep returning to these graphs by @jburnmurdoch at the @FT and wondering why more British journalism can't be as straightforwardly lucid and illustrative as this. The catastrophe of Tory rule laid bare.

Drug decrim means people who use drugs will never go to jail just for using/possessing drugs.
10 years ago this month, I was a full-time paramedic student on the dean’s list, working at Domino’s Pizza, earning income and military education benefits. I was addicted to heroin.🧵

The Tories have destroyed our NHS.

My daughter was prescribed Clarithromycin late this afternoon by a GP. We couldn't get an appointment until 4.30 as there is a shortage of doctors due to government cuts. We had to drive to a different town. In freezing conditions.

While this PPE scandal is erupting again I'll tell you a little story and it is absolutely and 100% true. Get yourself a cup of tea - this might be one of my threads.

In his new Netflix “documentary” #AncientApocalypse, @Graham__Hancock has declared war on archaeologists
His rhetoric sows distrust in experts, and #Atlantis conspiracy theories promote white supremacy
Buckle up, it’s time for an #ARCHAEOLOGY THREAD 🧵

Fiona Apple has a story for you. And it’s incredible. Asked me to share.
She's become an avid, trained Court Watcher. Her observations helped people jailed pretrial file a civil rights lawsuit. Then came the retaliation. Shut off her access to court.

"Most men who want to abuse women don't feel the need to change their gender to do it".
@NicolaSturgeon hits back at JK Rowling's claims she's destroying women’s rights telling LBC "abusive men are the risk to women, not trans women"

It takes an awful lot of guts to tell someone something like this to their face. You can hear the courage in her voice. But well done you, whoever you are, I think you’re brilliant

Tube on strike, I dawdled to Paddington on Friday. Passing the old wrought iron sign for Pizza Express, I was reminded of an event 30+ years ago, when I got caught up in a drama that resulted in a divorce, two marriages and many changed lives.
It began with a heart attack 🧵
