Works at Migration Museum Project @migrationuk. Interested in all ways to make the world a fairer, kinder place.

@MigObs Interesting. Keen to dig into the report, but just wondering, is there any comparable data on the net fiscal cost over their lifetime of care workers who are NOT migrants? Maybe @ZoeJardiniere would you know this?

[Georgina Lewis 💙 @Geo_g]

@MartinSLewis Ah rough one! List is not systemic enough for me - you missed out those enabling the continuing existence of tax havens and the lack on control of monopolies!

[Georgina Lewis 💙 @Geo_g]

@LNRailway I have 2 young children who have already been on a journey that should have taken 4 hours total and has already been 6 and a half. If I get a taxi from Rugby to the lichfield area can I be reimbursed?

[Georgina Lewis 💙 @Geo_g]

@LNRailway how will we be able to get from Rugby to Lichfield Trent Valley? We are due into Rugby at 5.30ish I think on train which started in Euston and is going non stop to Crewe from Rugby.

England haven’t been convincing so far, but without players born outside the UK or with at least 1 parent or grandparent born abroad, we wouldn’t still be here. And today, we’d be down to just 3 players.

“Death is better than this.”

Shocking images of starving, emaciated children from inside Gaza are laying bare the desperation inside the strip, as @nadaabashir reports.

[Prof. Devi Sridhar @devisridhar]

If you're defending the mass starvation of children in Gaza, then it's time to take a step back & look at your moral compass: "Surely it is impossible for us, as normal human beings, to watch children starve to death without making an effort to save them."

@TheGarrard @britishmuseum @sciencemuseum Good thread. On purely logical grounds, having institutions in the business of preserving things for generations to come being funded by companies increasing likelihood of loss/destruction makes no sense. No museums on a dead planet etc.

@HadleyFreeman @HughGrahamST Slightly different reaction from me & my identical twin sister on the old whatsapp. No offence intended though - appreciate that intimacy takes many forms...

At times like these am incredibly grateful for all the dedicated teachers, history experts & team at @MigrationUK quietly working away to make sure the next generation will have the knowledge, understanding & humanity to welcome migration as a pivotal part of all our stories.

Delivered CPD to all Oasis academy history teachers with @JoshPreyeGarry. Oasis have mandated @PearsonEdexcel migration unit at GCSE. Exciting times for migration education across the country! Josh: 'the unit makes heroes out of our parents, grandparents and neighbours' 🙌

We are heartbroken that our trustee George Alagiah passed away earlier today. George was a passionate supporter, a remarkable trustee & a true friend and champion. He was determined to create @MigrationUK – he'll live on in everything we do. We will honour his memory. RIP George

[Georgina Lewis 💙 @Geo_g]

@MAbsoud @LucyGoBag Yes indeed...my Dad is in a NHS haematology ward right now and it's been 28 degrees in his room for the last 5 days. No one seems to be able to do anything about it....a kind of torture for him and terrible working conditions for staff.
