@wrightchloe_ I just read about that. Came straight to Twitter to use my favourite GIF to describe my reaction

[William Yang @WilliamYang120]

Czech Republic’s senate becomes the sixth in the world to pass a resolution that declares #China’s persecution of the #Uyghurs in #Xinjiang as genocide, following the footsteps of the US, Canada, the Netherlands, UK and Lithuania.

@LinaKurdi12 Hear hear!

Last week in #Belarus:
- Tuesday: the most popular news portal @tutby demolished, its journalists and editor-in-chief detained
- Friday: Political prisoner Vitold Ashurak died in prison. Officially: a cardiac arrest
- Sunday: a plane hijacked, Raman #Pratasevich arrested.

[Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya @Tsihanouskaya]

The regime forced the landing @Ryanair plane in Minsk to arrest journalist and activist Raman Pratasevich. He faces the death penalty in Belarus. We demand immediate release of Raman, @ICAO investigation, and sanctions against Belarus.

[Mateusz Morawiecki @MorawieckiM]

I have asked @eucopresident to expand tomorrow's #EUCO agenda and discuss immediate sanctions against A. Lukashenka regime. Hijacking of a civilian plane is an unprecedented act of state terrorism. It cannot go unpunished.

Perhaps Dawkins could tell us how many people with DS have started wars, enslaved people, doled out billions to friends for non-materialising goods/services, maimed and murdered millions for being different, run concentration camps, etc. I'll wait.

@redrach71 When I'm feeling rough, I watch this. I hope you feel better! If you don't, keep asking for help. You are allowed. https://t.co/VDLJ8IOSGt

Meghan Markle has just won her High Court fight with the Daily Mail.

Now take them to the cleaners, Meghan.

When people complain that the news is always upsetting or scary, show them this Pixar movie pitch, Roshan the camel:

@Baddiel Instrumentalization of the tragedy of Jews who suffered, were humiliated, marked with a yellow star, and finally isolated in ghettos and murdered during the Holocaust, in order to argue against vaccination that saves human lives is a sad symptom of moral and intellectual decline.

@GemLeighton Her art reminds me of Quentin Blake! You're right, you can't do art wrong!

From someone who cares more about the declassification of Pluto than football, this is true. Here's to showing good manners on social media.

[Jack BB Clayton @JackBBClayton]

If you're thinking of tweeting something like "Football? Yawn. Boring. Don't care", stop. Think. Delete. When it's something you're not personally interested in, it's fully ok to just... not tweet about it. Wild concept, I know

“In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, to contribute something to solving overpopulation.” - Prince Philip. He was a riot!

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen has announced the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

Jess Phillips MP reads the names of the women killed in the UK in the last year, where a man has been convicted or charged as the main perpetrator

It takes her more than four minutes

A nun went down on her knees in front of policemen in a northern Myanmar town and pleaded with them to stop shooting protesters against last month’s coup https://t.co/k3TwNAB0DI 1/4

[Dominic Raab @DominicRaab]

We welcome the removal of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s ankle tag, but Iran’s continued treatment of her is intolerable. She must be allowed to return to the UK as soon as possible to be reunited with her family

Organ donation saves lives! An incredible development!

[Times Politics @timespolitics]

Using a pioneering machine, British medics have been able to reanimate hearts from donors whose hearts had stopped.

The technique has saved the lives of six British children aged from 12 to 16. https://t.co/0Ub3EpBLuv
