Swimming in the rain. Just swimming in the rain. It’s a glorious feeling, if slightly insane...

The aftermath of an earthquake poses particular risks for women & girls, who are living outside & need safe spaces to shelter.

We're working alongside local partners to coordinate a response in some of the worst-affected areas.

Donate to our appeal: https://t.co/z2flhZ7hbx

NEW: ActionAid has launched an emergency appeal following Friday’s devastating earthquake in Morocco.

In the remote villages near the Atlas Mountains survivors who have lost their homes are in urgent need of shelter, food and clothing.

I wish people would stop saying that Charlotte Owen's dad is Boris Johnson. He's given her a seat in the House of Lords for her long lifetime filled with tireless good deeds and political achievements, so please stop suggesting otherwise 👍

This is what we’re up against. A Conservative Party that’s abandoned pragmatic One Nation Toryism (that aims to unite rather than divide the British people) The Govt’s been hijacked by nasty right wing nationalists with a PM fishing for votes at the bottom of the political pond

Woman handcuffed by @metpoliceuk in front of her child even though it turned out she had paid her £3 bus fare. Institutional racism? Met statement below original makes it worse.

I’ve just tweeted about Grant Shapps and a donation he’s taken from a private hospital. Shall we… raise awareness and hit 5000 retweets?🤞

My column on the latest developments in the Post Office scandal - an incredible tale of total corporate psychopathy that I absolutely BEG you to stay very very cross about https://t.co/sy7ubpvjoc

'Educated people won't vote for us' is a real admission

Incredible video. Afghan dad jokingly says school is only for boys. Watch his remarkable daughter - who can’t be more than 5 or 6 years old - respond with these arguments.

Afghan girls have been denied access to schools and universities. This little girl's courage represents the collective voice of countless Afghan girls who yearn for equal educational opportunities.

As an advocate for girls' education the father's teasing is simply to highlight an important message: that the Taliban - another backward regime - are harming the people of his country.

It’s time the world is done with them.

Ditto the “Islamic” Republic in Iran #regime

Memo to the BBC. Stop playing the game your enemies want you to. Relegate the Huw E story so low down the bulletins it disappears. Lead them on the story of a former PM who said he would hand over all his texts to an inquiry failing to do so in defiance of a court order 1/2

One has to worry a little about a government with all the security and technical ability at its finger tips cannot switch on a phone. Can I offer one of my teenage sons to assist them, I sometimes need their help getting Bluetooth headphones to work.

Dave was very fond of Dogger. He took him everywhere.

This week we are looking through the pages of Dogger.

How many examples are required
to show that the Tories represent the worst of us. What spiteful pointless action to take. There is nobody in France deciding not to get in a boat because Mickey Mouse is not on the wall. Displaced children deserve compassion
and we deserve a better government

Since 1970, Rupert Murdoch's toxic Sun had published images of topless 'glamour models' on Page 3.

In 1983, Sam Fox became the youngest Page 3 model in The Sun, when aged just 16 she first featured topless with the headline 'Sam, 16, Quits A-Levels for Ooh-Levels'.

Well said Laura Farris(Tory MP) on Harriet Harman's motivations to chair the privileges committee.

If you accept that a 17 year old is vulnerable and shouldn't be exploited by a presenter then surely you have to accept that 15 year old Shamima Begum was groomed and exploited by powerful men.

She's a horrible person but she's our problem.

[Jess Phillips @jessphillips]

Absolutely nailed it

[Hugh Brechin @HughRBrechin]

you don't need to agree with Gordon Brown on everything to recognise that there is a chasm between the way he has conducted himself since leaving office and the approach taken by a number of other former occupants of Downing Street https://t.co/b3jc2h132e

Women who defend their sex-based rights lose their jobs, get taken to court and are publicly denounced as fascists. But someone who spent 30yrs in prison for violent crimes can tell people to punch women in the face and they get cheered, while the Met looks on doing nothing
