Today marks the #WinterSolstice ❄️

This illustrated page, ‘Erde und Sonne’, from a German atlas by Justus Perthes (c.1910), shows how Earth’s tilt and orbit create the solstices, equinoxes and seasons.

President Frank-Walter Steinmeier of Germany visited Oxford University today as part of his three-day State Visit to the United Kingdom, hosted by Their Majesties The King and Queen.

He was accompanied in Oxford by the First Lady, Ms Elke Büdenbender.

During the visit, the President met with Oxford’s Vice-Chancellor and Chancellor, and attended an academic showcase in the Divinity School highlighting research initiatives with strong German links, including work relevant to the German economy and collaborations within the Oxford–Berlin Partnership.

He was also admitted to an Honorary Degree in Convocation House, in a ceremony presided over by the Chancellor and featuring music performed by The Queen’s College choir.

The most severe women’s rights crisis in the world is being normalized.

4 years since the Taliban takeover, not one restriction on Afghan women and girls has been reversed.

Stand with Afghan women, and see how @UN_Women is taking action: https://t.co/tTkvO2VBRt

[UN Women @UN_Women]

4 years since the Taliban takeover in #Afghanistan, the state of women’s health & rights is alarming.

Maternal mortality risks are rising, especially with high rates of adolescent birth due to child marriage.

These days, “cruelty is the coin of the realm; it’s the way to get ahead,” @Peter_Wehner writes. “The only way out of this wreckage is to rewrite the cultural script, to make excellence in character admired again”: https://t.co/BBfAhqh56h

Macron : "Brexiteers promised leaving the EU would make it easier to stop illegal immigration. It's the exact opposite because for a decade now there has been no legal agreement between the EU & the UK. This is an incentive to attempt dangerous crossings"

I was on my boat late last night & thought I heard a scrabbling noise coming from outside. I saw movement out of the corner of my eye & looked up to see a fox had come through my open boat hatch & was climbing into my bed!

It didn’t flinch or run away when I turned to it & instead slowly sussed me out & gently sauntered back off the boat. It feels like the longer I live in nature, the more comfortable all creatures become with me and my presence.
