'The Stolen Goods Tour' continues outside the Assyria Exhibition where a group of Iraqi activists are here in outrage at the exploitation of stolen artefacts in the @britishmuseum, sponsored by @BP_plc#dropbp
Worth noting that this expedition was backed and funded by @royalsociety who still proudly announce it on their history page as "Advancements and Adventure". https://t.co/Ynx64lx3qh. Solidarity to those at @britishmuseum today talking about this.
“The conflation of scientific neutrality into political neutrality of the scientist as a citizen is actually a trick by mainstream liberal ideology that we’re helping people break with. And those who break, join us."

This is such a great story; it showcases human drama, institutional rivalries and the complexity at the interface of statistical mechanics, physical chemistry and computer simulation. And the whole drama came down to a bug in the code. https://t.co/T4BO4B25WE
The @sciencemuseum needs to realise that the fossils belong in the @NHM_London. Oil companies are not modern businesses but relics of the past that one way or another will not be part of the future. #makethefuture https://t.co/3DIrTKZTrP
#fossilfuel sponsorship is akin to tobacco sponsorship; it seriously undermines @sciencemuseum ‘s mission to promote sci & medical knowledge. We're joining leading scientists to support this complaint & assoc website @Cult_unstained https://t.co/gCkK85aYN9 https://t.co/9ecwMDNWJO

Today I've joined leading scientists in calling out @sciencemuseum over ties to three oil companies. It’s time to #makethefuture and ditch big oil! Via @Cult_Unstained https://t.co/hve6wJ9fJ1
The Science Museum's own due diligence reports on BP, Shell and Equinor show they knew about ties to corruption, pollution and climate science denial. https://t.co/WWEHvzHCwu

Proud to be a signitory. We need to #makethefuture liveable not allow it to be stolen from us by #fossilfuel companies that promote climate change/science denial for profit. It's not good enough that the @sciencemuseum's content can be influenced by financial interests. https://t.co/K5KNPhdNGo
