@seatsixtyone Is there WiFi on the train? I'm going to be taking this one in a few weeks and I'm trying to work out if I can do some work from there!

At this point in time, and under these conditions, I think vaccine patents should be seen for what they are: racist. They condemn the poorer nations--which are black, Latin American and Asian overwhelmingly--to death by greed.

this is genocide. my heart is with the low income and lower caste communities in India who this will affect the most. I have no words.

@ukinnl do you know, if I travel by Eurostar to Amsterdam, would I have to isolate on arrival in the Netherlands? The Netherlands government advice says anyone travelling from Brussels would have to isolate, the train stops in Brussels but I wouldn't leave the train

Jacob Blake got shot seven times in the back for breaking up a fight. A little racist white kid guns down three people, killing one, with dozens of witnesses and walks through a police line unharmed, in the same goddamn city.

In 2010 the Conservative Government destroyed landing cards of the Windrush generation. Editing the past? You do it best.

Angrier at the drowning of a slavetrader’s statue than at the drowning of actual Africans in the Mediterranean, we see you.

[Prof Kate Williams 💙 @KateWilliamsme]

People who say - authorities should take statues down after discussion. Yes. But it isn't happening. Bristol'sbeen debating #EdwardColston for years and wasn't getting anywhere. In 2018, it was agreed that statue would bear a plaque noting his involvement in the slave trade. BUT

Today #Kashmir completed 10 months of continuous lockdown. It has been 305 days since Aug 5, 2019 & Kashmir still doesn't have access to 4G internet services. Ten months of struggle, trauma and humiliation.

Stop celebrating peaceful cops, that should be the norm. We don’t write articles every time a pilot lands a plane. That’s just the bare minimum to keep people alive.

[Beth Oliver @betholiver94]

The news here is always quick to talk about the history of American racism but not so much British racism. As if colonialism, slavery and abuse have nothing to do with the UK. Education must be better, the UK is not innocent.

Our Prime Minister advocates for white supremacy in Africa.

[Ka’ @kamanityrese]

The UK isn’t racist. A thread.
