The great thing about money is that people can spend it on things they need instead of things that other people ('experts') think they need.
Amazing talk by @RoryStewartUK on the power of cash to eliminate extreme poverty.
Worth 13 mins of your time -->
There’s a chilling symmetry between the final stage of #SriLanka’s civil war and what’s happening now in #Gaza. Exhausted civilians forced into a tiny slice of land amid an unrelenting bombardment. Tens of thousands died in the campaign to crush the Tamil Tigers @nofirezonemovie
@TimRussellPhoto I went every year from 2004 until 2011 to The Pogues Christmas tour of England and Scotland, usually we would head to Glasgow to see the start where SM would be very much out of shape, hillarious
And they are absolutely right in this issue, we in the west trying to impose our worldview and ethics on other countries where we do not understand the dynamics. It is in some respect a new form of colonialism. https://t.co/HePYndDs1n
@TimRussellPhoto HAHAHAHA that is hilarious, Shane the business innovator and strategist. Love it. I remember him coming on to the stage in Brixton academy, he had to follow lines drawn on the floor to find the microphone ………
@RestIsPolitics@RoryStewartUK@campbellclaret After 3 years of increase fighting in Myanmar how do you see the future there if the ethnic minorities and rebels gain the upper hand?

Thanks

Been great to work with the ABC’s @TheLyonsDen and producer @mayetaclark on this no-holds-barred examination of #Israel’s assault on #Gaza. We’ll be airing incredible footage and have a powerful cast list, incl an ex-PM, two former heads of Shin Bet and an ex-Foreign Minister
Har hørt hele interviewet. Det bedste, der er sagt til dato. Det er langt og skal lyttes til ende. Det er indlysende rigtigt i forhold til vores demokratiske værdier, tillært os på den hårdeste måde efter WW2.
Hendes fredsstemme er den vigtigste i dag ♥️
