One day to go.

This thread on the @Conservatives’ record in government got nearly a million views in 72 hours. It obviously touched a nerve.

You also sent many suggestions of what I’d left out.
So here’s an update, with an important correction at the end. Here we go:

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I condemn Israel’s actions which killed scores of innocent civilians who were only seeking shelter from this deadly conflict.

There is no safe place in Gaza.

This horror must stop.

[Ann Napolitano @napolitanoann]

I'm delighted that Hello Beautiful is a @goodreads nominee for Best Fiction. There are lots of fun categories and great books, if you'd like to vote in the opening round. https://t.co/PhraReLCxc

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I am deeply disturbed by the horrible situation and dramatic loss of life in several hospitals in Gaza.

In the name of humanity, I call for an immediate humanitarian cease fire.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

A reminder.

[Dave Ward @DaveWardGS]

The lines are drawn

RT if you are with the striking nurses, posties, telecom workers, rail workers, civil servants, lecturers, teachers and call centre workers

RT if you are sick and tired of all workers being told no as profits, dividends and CEO pay spiral

Enough is Enough

First trip to London in two years to see Elif Shafak (swoon) and Lauren Groff (swoon a bit more) and this brilliant one @Pumpkinspices25. I’ve a hunch it’s going to be f*cking magnificent.

Every time a new James Bond film is made, the producers are asked to reconsider their representation of disfigurement. Every time, they say they don't care. The new film, out this week, is no exception. This time, two villains with facial disfigurements. Lucky us.

Reminder

[Trussell @TrussellUK]

If the #UKGovernment cuts #UniversalCredit by £20 a week in Oct, it will be a devastating blow for millions of households already struggling to make ends meet. It doesn’t have to be like this. Help #KeepTheLifeline. Share this video & create change. https://t.co/zY6Z0cgV77

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

Giving wildflowers a chance by leaving areas of our gardens uncut is an easy way of helping struggling pollinators like bees, butterflies, moths, hoverflies and bats! RT if you're on board for saving time, effort and wildlife by mowing less 🐝

[Guildford Library @GuildfordLib]

I've signed the @bigissue petition to Help Stop Mass Homelessness - https://t.co/QUebNh41F7 #StopMassHomelessness @action_storm

[Kate Wilde @katewilde_]

Bucket list.

[Malorie Blackman @malorieblackman]

How about you feed kids who need it during school holidays, build more social housing, stop shutting libraries, stop deporting Windrush British citizens & speed up compensation claims, ensure state schools have proper libraries/staff, pay hospital staff properly, etc #priorities
