@LaylaMoran @BBCPolitics Hear-hear to Jenny's remarks. Layla, I admire you so much for your balance and compassion. You are a model of dignity and reason in the midst of so much fury.

[Alice Prochaska @AliceProchaska]

@LaylaMoran I much admire Layla Moran's measured and balanced stance on the horrible crisis in the Middle East, which must be excruciating for her personally. This is real leadership.

URGENT: @JoeBiden, it’s time to empty #Guantanamo Bay. You’ve got just 2 years left to get it done, so I’ve written you a to-do list:

1⃣ de-classify detainee art
2⃣ empty the prison
3⃣ shut it down for good

The brilliant @charmaghz libraries⁩ going from strength to strength in Afghanistan- 50 employees, 75% are women, means 50 families being fed. Last month 58,000 children visited the libraries. ⁦@SomervilleOx⁩ so proud of ⁦@FreshtaKarim⁩ who started the libraries

It shouldn't take one of the greatest athletes whose ever raced for this country for people to humanise undocumented immigrants.

But may Mo Farah's courage in speaking out allow people to see past the hate pushed by the press and politicians. We need to change the policy.

1000+ gambling suicides in England since the @Conservatives pledged to review the Gambling Act in 2019.

Every single one is a family shattered.

As a granddaughter myself of a great champion of human rights and the rule of law (Arnold McNair, one-time president of the International Court of Justice and then of the European Court of Human Rights), I have read this poignant piece with great sympathy. Well said Anneke!

@RajTulsiani @LabourRoyall It's brilliant to see this scholarship added to the many that Somerville already offers to its wonderfully international graduate community

Could't they charter ships to cross the channel, staffed with immigration officials, and deal with the asylum cases that way, thwarting the traffickers at the same time? Shipping to Rwanda is utterly disgraceful

Andriy Piddubny: My colleague, Anastasiia Yalanskaya died yesterday. Nastya was shot dead by Russian troops while driving in Bucha. It was not an accidental shot, the civilian car was shot at point-blank range, there were 2 other people with it, who also died

@LabourRoyall @AlfDubs Great news! Hope it works as this dreadful and shaming bill makes its way back to the Commons
