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

I love watching Jack speak. His speech pattern and gesticulations remind me of a kindergarten teacher patiently explaining why you absolutely must wash your hands after using the bathroom

This website is genius.

Click on the link and keep scrolling right. It's both amazing and yet so deeply infuriating...

Well played yet again, @ByDonkeys

Andrew Salter's pathless garden certainly got folk talking last night. If you've no idea what we're referring to or forgot we were on, catch up on @BBCiPlayer or watch tomorrow morning's repeat at 7.45am. We'd hate you to miss out! 🙂🏡🌿#GardenersWorld #Kent #GardenInAField

We're now 2 yrs into the decisive decade. Emissions should be in an unprecedented fall, instead we're seeing the 2nd biggest rise ever recorded. We're wasting invaluable time pretending we can solve this crisis without treating it like a crisis. World leaders are still in denial.

Working TOGETHER we have sent a powerful message to UK News shows if they won’t hold this Prime Minister to account for his rampant lying in Parliament we will do it ourselves!

How long can you ignore it @BBCNews?

"Scientists have found evidence that frozen methane deposits in the Arctic Ocean – known as the “sleeping giants of the carbon cycle” – have started to be released over a large area of the continental slope off the East Siberian coast."
