At a time when trust and truth are under strain, people need clear, honest information from independent experts about the climate and nature crisis.

An informed public is the foundation of democracy.

MESSAGE

I wholeheartedly endorse the powerful appeal for peace made by the Holy Father, Pope Leo, during his Palm Sunday Mass. His call for the laying down of arms and the renunciation of violence resonated profoundly with me, as it speaks to the very essence of what all major religions teach.

Indeed, whether we look to Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism or any of the world's great spiritual traditions, the message is fundamentally the same: love, compassion, tolerance, and self-discipline. Violence finds no true home in any of these teachings. History has shown us time and again that violence only begets more violence and is never a lasting foundation for peace.

An enduring resolution to conflict, including the ones we see in the Middle East or between Russia and Ukraine, must be rooted in dialogue, diplomacy and mutual respect — approached with the understanding that, at the deepest level, we are all brothers and sisters.

I urge for and pray that the violence and conflicts may soon come to an end.

So, just in case you've forgotten @AnasSarwar, this is how you felt about Peter Mandelson last year. Are you not being a wee bit hypocritical today?

[Anas Sarwar @AnasSarwar]

It was great to catch up with my old friend and the UK’s (relatively!) new Ambassador to the US, Peter Mandelson @UKinUSA.

[Paul Vick @PaulVick138203]

Do you think Laura Kuenssberg and Chris Mason have demonstrated over the past few day that they are no longer capable of impartiality and for the good of the country they should now resign?🤔
Repost after voting please.

Matt Goodwin hates this video apparently.

Be a shame if you reposted it.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

The BBC’s silly and unnecessary editing mistake does not change the FACT that Trump encouraged and inspired the violence that led to death and devastation on Jan 6 after he LOST the election. That should be made clear in all communications to his Mafia style lawyers and to the public. He has zero case and that should be communicated with absolute confidence, with the full and voluble backing of 🇬🇧government. And all those who are encouraging and exhorting a foreign felon leader to take down one of Britain’s greatest institutions should never have the gall to call themselves patriots again. Thank you for your attention to this matter

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Just a reminder that Reform’s former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, has admitted taking bribes from Russia while an MEP.

Yet Reform spokespeople have suggested their leaders didn't really know Gill.

So here's a few pictures of him with Nigel Farage.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

I think that @BBCNews, @SkyNews @ITVNewsPolitics and @Channel4News should all be reporting on Reform UK and Russian bribery.

RT if you agree!!

Why are the media ignoring such a blatant story?!

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

I seem to have upset the @Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

RT if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

RT if you agree @SkyNews should have included the clip where Farage gets lambasted!

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Now that @ZackPolanski is the leader of a party with the same amount of MPs as Reform UK, but more councillors, he should get as much media coverage.

RT if you agree!

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

Famine has now been officially declared in Gaza City by a UN-backed report.

Families and children are dying of starvation, and this is just not a tragedy - it is genocide in plain sight.

There must be an immediate ceasefire, urgent aid into Gaza, and sanctions on Israel.

[Tim Walker @ThatTimWalker]

I’ve no issue with paying taxes but it’d be kind of nice to know the amounts being spent on, among other things:
- RAF reconnaissance missions to assist Israel with its annihilation of Gaza
- Palantir’s NHS work
- Trump’s state visit https://t.co/TJ1PzEu3aq

@UndisScot Dunblane?

[Paul Vick @PaulVick138203]

Do you think the BBC gives excessive coverage to Reform UK?🤔

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

The UK needs to stop all arms exports to the Israeli Government - today.
