Delhi must choose: compassion & coexistence or cruelty & culling. True solutions: ABC+vaccination+coexistence. Not warehousing lives in cages. #SaveDelhiNCRDogs #NoDogsNoVote

Here are a few concluding thoughts on capitalism and extreme poverty, from the discussion section:

[Geoff Goodwin @GBGoodwin]

My employer deducted c. £800 from my pay this month because I participated in the UCU strike to improve working and learning conditions in British universities. I'm still working out how to pay the rent but it was worth EVERY penny. Solidarity! @ucu

[Krithika Rao @krithi05]

We are withholding our final fee instalment to @LSEnews! After paying an exorbitant amount of fees, we expect the leadership to respond to students and @LSE_UCU in a responsible manner and take immediate and effective action. @BBCNews @HEGoingGlobal

[Jack Calland @jackcalland]

Over 100 of my @LSE_ID classmates and I are going on a fee strike.
We can't be expected to pay the most expensive fees in the world having lost 20% of teaching time due to @LSE_UCU strikes over reasonable demands to stop drastic pension cuts and declining wages.

There are people with children who have flown for 14 hours - exhausted and hungry, waiting for more than 2 hours to get ‘assisted’ with their domestic transfer. Such a nuisance!!

[Krithika Rao @krithi05]

@airindiain ridiculous ground service. Those of us who have missed our connecting flights at Delhi have been asked to wait outside and told that a ‘representative’ will assist you. No proper systems and help desks for domestic transfers! @DelhiAirport @ndtv

There’s only one way to describe this: Outrageous. No need for diplomatic debates over this. The policy should be revised as soon as possible.
