@POTUS, you promised to close Guantánamo Bay, but time is running out and men cleared for release two years ago are still not free.
As a matter of priority, you must free Khalid Qasim and Abdul Malik, and close Guantánamo Bay for good. https://t.co/GFV2cPuwKV

The language context of Ukraine can be a tricky topic for any outsider. In this long and personal thread, I’ll illustrate the relationship between 🇺🇦 and 🇷🇺 languages in Ukraine using my family’s history. I’m a bilingual Ukrainian raised in a Russian-speaking family in Kyiv.

Er cof am Aled Roberts, Comisiynydd y Gymraeg, 2019-2022
O'i waith i fyd y Pethe, ein 'Dyn Iaith'
ar dân oedd bob cyfle,
anwylai hon waeth ymhle

The A470 book arrives from Arachne Press. It has my poem on language/ancestors translated into Welsh. A delight for me. I've never had a poem translated into Welsh. When it arrived, Dad read it out aloud, the first time I've heard him read a full poem aloud in Welsh.
It’s arrived! Diolch @ness_owen , @CherryJPotts & all at @ArachnePress and all the poets & translators.
What I’d love to see now is A470 poets who don’t know each other meeting, and poets and translators meeting. Coffee, cake, wine… Hopefully we’ll manage some real life events.
@POTUS, you promised to close Guantánamo Bay by the end of your presidency, but men cleared for release in October are still not free.
Return them to their families now. #BidenSetThemFree#CloseGuantanamo
Mark Drakeford stayed in a hut at the end of his garden last year in order to prevent the spread of covid to his loved ones.
Meanwhile, in Downing Street, the Tories partied and had a giggle at the fact that they were getting away with breaking their own rules.

I rai rhyw hen boen yw'r iaith,
un ebwch o anobaith:
"Anodd iawn, mynydd o waith!"
I eraill ymarferol,
eu dawn nhw a'i cwyd yn ôl
o'i harch â sêl ymgyrchol:
"Dyfodol, nid difodiant!"
Am ei eli, ein moliant
rown ni i ddoctor y Nant.

Absolute pleasure to get up and running at @ccrcitydeal and to hear the excitement and passion for improving Region. Excited to say that I will be working with Transport and Energy as we aim for net zero by 2050.
