'm delighted to announce 7 Jun & 9 Aug as dates for this year's Dowry Square history tours, including a visit inside The Pneumatic Institution where Humphry Davy had adventures with nitrous oxide. Would be great to see people on any of the tours! https://t.co/JVD8cQAMhw

20 is plenty - make Hotwell Road a 20 MPH Zone - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/XII2Cr5fGz | Would be great to get support for this - recent accident on Hotwell Rd when car mounted pavement slamming into house - could have killed children walking home from Hotwell Primary school

@GeorgeFergusonx @britishmuseum Indeed - why haven’t we seen any of the trustees resign?!

Parkrun has been found to reduce loneliness and some 70% of participants report an improvement in mental health. There are two main reasons for its success https://t.co/sV3FhvpLdK

The racists in the UK are not the ones attending pro-Palestine marches this weekend.

The racists in the UK are the ones saying that you shouldn’t protest 53 Palestinians being murdered because two Jewish people were also murdered on the same day.

Some of us can condemn both.

As ever ⁦@BBCNews⁩ lending legitimacy to the genocide & ethnic cleansing in Gaza by making it out as some sort of even sided war!

[Make Votes Matter @MakeVotesMatter]

Trudeau named not reforming the voting system as his big regret. Starmer shouldn't repeat his mistake.

The stakes are now much higher than just who wins the next election. When there's such a disconnect between how people vote and who wins seats, trust in democracy is at risk.

MPs tamely go along with a 19th C convention not to discuss the royal family. Which is a shame, because there's lots to discuss https://t.co/pwxqNyIEni

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

No, pathetic, spineless, disgraceful @BBCNews - this is not a "controversial" project- it is an illegal war crime, designed to make a Palestinian state Impossible & ignores 47 UN Resolutions

Israel approves controversial West Bank settlement project

The @BBC board has just made the entire corporation
look ridiculous, unprincipled, corrupt, hypocritical and above all, cowardly- not least because a very similar documentary ran without censorship on @SkyNews the same evening

[Ben Heald @bheald]

Exciting times - Dowry Square now has its own website https://t.co/DK9fRCVeSA featuring Dowry Square history tours that include a visit to the famous Pneumatic Institution where Beddoes & Davy had fun with nitrous oxide!

[Ben Heald @bheald]

Thank you @BBCNews @BBCBreaking - hopefully whoever keeps on generating these headlines is being reeducated!

[Ben Heald @bheald]

Utterly outrageous implication from @BBCNews @BBCBreaking news that Hamas is connected, involved or 'the other side' of the Israeli military killing Gazan citizens trying to get aid!! Repeatedly, we see these headlines amended afterwards, but they are not worthy of @BBC !

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

I'll be speaking against the Gaza Genocide on the Palestine March today- 2pm in Trafalgar Square. Hope to see many of you there.

Listen to the Finnish president—this is what a real leader sounds like, unlike the nonsense Trump says.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Israel has sent tanks to the West Bank and displaced 40,000 Palestinians from refugee camps there.

There must be sanctions on Israel to stop its war crimes and violations of international law - including a ban on goods from illegal Israeli settlements.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. Nervous Musk, Trump, Vance have all been outclassed in public arguments these last few days. Government failure, stock market crash, and dictatorial alliances are not popular. People are starting to realize that there is no truth here beyond the desire for personal wealth and power.
