I just witnessed something very sweet, I’m in a hospital orthotics waiting room & there is a board asking for feedback about the staff.
Two women approach the board:
A: Who do you think gets the fewest compliments?
B: Richard.
A: Oh yes! [Writes something lovely about Richard] 1/
Hey @Keir_Starmer have you given any thought to giving asylum to American citizens who may soon have to flee the US under the next administration, it feels like this will be very important for the LGBTQIA community & possibly even some politicians if Trump acts on his threats.
On such days the immortal words in 2002 of former Whitehall permanent secretary Sir Richard Mottram re-echo down the ages: “We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. We're all completely fucked.”
Ed Davey is spot on here.
Now, more than ever, we need to break ties with America and focus on rebuilding our relationship with Europe.
You can’t have a “special relationship” with a treacherous fascist.
Let's make sure the @nytimes gets all the credit they deserve for what happened tonight. They worked really hard to make Trump look like a normal viable alternative to Kamala and well...
@Karin53026923@ask_aubry What an arse. I hope he never touches a boob again in real life.
I like to imagine men like him going on dates & being asked why their previous relationships broke up & them explaining why, followed by the women just standing up and leaving.
Wow. This new Kamala Harris ad narrated by Viola Davis is one of the most powerful things I’ve watched. It tells the story, experience, & vision of Kamala Harris & why she is ready for this. It’s a masterpiece & it sent chills down my body. Watch & share.
@Eyeswideopen69 I remember years ago reading about how you need to brand innovations with conservative sounding names to get them on board, so rather than calling it climate activism you talk about restoring nature. I propose we call them “traditional cities” they’d lap it up.
It is extremely difficult to bring our people home from Russian captivity, and the hardest part is bringing back our children—the young Ukrainians stolen from their families, taken from our temporarily occupied territories to Russia, and hidden away. No one can say for certain how many there are, but we know there are tens of thousands.
This week, a conference was held in Canada focused on a key point of the Peace Formula: returning all Ukrainian captives, all our deported and stolen people. More than 70 countries and international organizations took part.
Our Bring Kids Back UA initiative is working to make this happen, with support from the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, the Vatican, and many other countries.
We want true peace for Ukraine. Justice means bringing everyone home—all those the war tried to rob of their home.
