A released Palestinian prisoner says in Arabic that Israel held them in the cold w/o electricity, "sprayed us w/ pepper spray" & "left us to die."

She never mentioned Hamas or a word like it. Yet @BBC translated to: "No one helped us. Only Hamas cared...We love them very much."

Another day, another climate criminal fossil fuel giant announces bumper profits - Shell took *£7.6bn* in 2023 Q1. Every time it begs the question - why on Earth is Govt handing them billions more with deliberately designed windfall tax loophole? Fossil fuel subsidies must stop.

I want to emphasise the scale of the cuts to the USS pension (broadly the pension scheme for the ‘pre-92’ University sector) and why this is key to the current dispute with employers. This is going to take a couple of threads. This first thread is on the cuts. #USSmess #UCURising

[Catrin Darsley @c_darsley]

I'm stepping down from this position; feel free to send any questions. A fascinating job with the potential to make a real difference, working alongside inspirational people in a stunning building.

Listening to tories talk about defending the ‘rights of woman and children’.

This is the party that wants to:

- get rid of the Human Rights Act
- brought in the Rape Clause
- wants to take us out of the ECHR
- attacked workers rights literally last night

Makes my skin crawl

Wishing everyone a happy and warm end of December, wherever you are. Some great ideas while centrally-heated offices are closed -

A thread on staying warm from a chronically ill Appalachian who grew up without central heat:

It's fucking cold right now. As we all cope with new levels of cold (for our areas), I thought I'd put together some safety tips for folks, esp for any newly disabled out there.
