Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.

Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.

This intervention by @radeksikorski 🇵🇱 in the 🇺🇳 Security Council today will be a classic. Not much left of 🇷🇺 after that.

Rishi Sunak’s vanity jamboree on AI safety lays bare the UK’s Brexit dilemmas: Sunak as “a lightweight splashing in the political shallow end.” https://t.co/BZC3bRMSSy

Anyone commenting on events in Gaza could read this with advantage. It’s a reliable expert account of the legal constraints on military action, where they are clear and where they are disputed. /1

@Peston Congratulations Eleanor. Cambridge is lucky to have you back.

Even if - like me - you can understand this speech only through the subtitles, look at President Zelenskij’s face: this is powerful.

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

This is a big mistake. Select committees do some of the most incisive and insightful scrutiny of those in power in the land.

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

This is so interesting. And just shows the absurd inconsistencies. Just read final sentence in this adjudication, and ask is audience not able to do same with Gary Lineker?

[Alex Layton @alexwlayton]

I've just signed @DailyMirror's 38 Degrees petition calling on @bbc to re-instate @GaryLineker to #motd #BringBackGary - please sign and RT https://t.co/sSn7hgkoVb via @38degrees

[Alf Dubs @AlfDubs]

I applaud @GaryLineker for his compassion and support for vulnerable people, particularly refugees.
Thank you, Gary.

@davidallengreen Loved the sting in the last paragraph of the witchcraft essay!

“ The law instead moved onto dealing of other forms of magical thinking, some of which are the subject of the partisan battles of our own times and which future generations maybe will also see as strange.”

@joshaw @UoELawSchool So sad to hear this news. A most delightful colleague.

[Alex Layton @alexwlayton]

@CrimeGirI Not too late. Depending on how you relate to him, tell him what you prefer to be called. He may be mortified to have embarrassed you or he may be offended at being corrected. Either way, setting the record straight will clarify the position.

[Alex Layton @alexwlayton]

@OxfordDiplomat 🙂 Just re-followed you.

[Alex Layton @alexwlayton]

@WendyakBliss Fabulous news Wendy . Can't wait to see it.

@Mike_Fabricant Why, in Heaven’s name, should we trust you after all the destructive causes and people you’ve supported?

Of all the words written about the catastrophe of the past week, this letter in the FT sums it up best of all. And it’s worse than we might have thought.
