Progress has never and will never come from silence or standing on the sidelines. Find your voice. Speak, even when it shakes. Question what doesn’t sit right, even when it scares you. Do better, even if it makes you unpopular. Change is not given its created. Happy IWD!

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage. I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong. Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole. Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you... (Photos AP)

Well, now that the FCCC has paused the EFL increase for consultations, will we see average Fijian citizens make an effort to make a submission or will we do the usual and say nothing and then get angry when the price of electricity goes up?

#Israel’s suspension of multiple aid agencies from #Gaza is outrageous. The pattern of unlawful restrictions on humanitarian access & these arbitrary suspensions make an already intolerable situation worse for the people of Gaza. States must take urgent steps & insist that Israel allows aid to get into Gaza unhindered. ➡️ ohchr.org/en/press-releases/…

Happy New Year 2026. Rain is considered to be a good omen across many cultures, and there is plenty of it in New Zealand today. May it portend better times - more peace ☮️, justice ⚖️, equity, and sustainability 🌳 for our challenged world.

UNRWA has food, shelter, medical and other essential supplies outside of #Gaza - enough to reach hundreds of thousands of people facing the harsh winter. This aid has been blocked by Israeli Authorities since March. Refusing to let it in is a choice – one that deprives people inside Gaza of the means to survive and recover. UNRWA's 12,000 team members are working tirelessly inside Gaza. But letting the blocked aid in would enable them to multiply their operations massively.
