Over 200 million Muslims call India home. Widespread anti-Muslim mob violence has killed at least 27 and injured many more. Trump responds by saying, "That's up to India." This is a failure of leadership on human rights.

1/ Manc cyclists - what's the safest and least ridiculous way to cycle my daughter from sandy lane in Chorlton to Victoria park in Stretford? Have tried going up the a5145 where at least some has a supposed bike lane, but get cut up a lot, forced out the bike lane by parked cars,
Accused of 'child abuse' by men in vans. My stepdaughter enjoys it, and it's very difficult by public transport. Also get shouted at for riding on the pavement. we use a trailgator. Any advice much appreciated. @WalkRideGM@WlkRideChorlton @MCRCycleSam ( hope it's ok to tag you?)
@MCRCycleSam @MShiltonGodwin@evefrancisholt@bricycle Please! This spot is so dangerous because of cars pulling out of Morissons to edge into to queue and not looking, and then side swiping into cyclists because the lane is not protected and they don't look. Been hit several times here.
@MCRCycleSam @ShowMeASignBryn @scareyjoe@SavageHoutkop@JenOnTheMoveUK @RantyHighwayman @bricycle Doing something on this part of the road was so needed. At pick-up and drop-off its a tragedy, kids having to navigate tight choke points or walk into the road cos the pavements are full of idling cars.
Climatologists say we have 10 years left to tackle global heating. Last Thursday the UK lost 5
Labour has to both win the next election and then effect a massive transformation of our economy in one parliament
The defining question for the new leadership is how to achieve that
Anyone who knows me knows that I am supremely optimistic- but my timeline is filled with black people in the UK recounting the racist abuse they have gotten since Thursday. And black people from the global South heartbroken that rich countries are literally signing their death
@radiodario@syn@dave Anyway thanks for doing this @syn, you're a star, and I'll fill in the typeform. It would be ace to have a zoom chat after work next week too.
@radiodario@syn@dave And it's not to say we won't need protests, tenants unions, more climate strikes, it's that we need our solidarity economy alongside that, to keep us going, to overcome isolation, despair, hunger, atomisation. It's the de-commodification of care.
