Not all heroes wear capes... some fly seaplanes & help to fight forest fires 🔥
Fires now cover 5000 hectares & have spread.
It's now 38km from us. We can smell the smoke & our terrace has ash on it. It's devastatingly sad. And scary. #Tenerife#TenerifeFire
The biggest ‘disaster’ would be if we were to partner this party in its current toxic condition. The Scottish public would never forgive us if we legitimised the hateful behaviour of so many of its supporters. https://t.co/KlnJg5SCJq
Criminal acts that will cost Londoners thousands of pounds. And all because some bunch of arse wipes think they have a god given right to pollute our city.

Scotland needs less Godley and more @shiny02 My @TheScotsman column on the power of satire to free us from the grip of political culture where a range of views and voices are not tolerated https://t.co/TXOhy7reum
If Owen Jones was walking in the Alaskan wilderness, he’d be vulnerable to bear attack.
He wouldn’t be *defined* by that vulnerability. That’s not how definitions work.
@TalkTV Yes. These men are causing criminal damage in the hundreds of thousands of pounds. JSO are peacefully protesting to save humanity. Big difference- but you already know that.
@robinince Trans women are men. That’s why people especially women are angry. It’s nonsense that adult human males can change into adult human females. It’s not transubstantiation for sex.
@boxtunnelpod I once made a noise like a strangled duck on the central line when the train stopped with a shudder and the lights legit flickered, went off and then sputtered back on. Only those who know understand!!!!
Trans Activist: “I’m going to continue to call you ‘cis’, irrespective of whether you like it or not”.

Women inside Iran are handing out leaflets calling for a day of action on the anniversary of Mahsa Amini’s murder. This is Tehran’s metro and the woman who took the video told me: “Cameras are everywhere to identify unveiled women. Morality police are everywhere to arrest women for the crime of not wearing hijab but as you see in the video we practice our civil disobedience every day. We are getting ready for September 16 to take to the the streets. We will continue our fight against Islamic Republic’s dictatorship.”
The resilience of Iranian women remains unbroken. Women of Iran are wounded but unbowed.

"If we cancel comedy, where do we go next?" Edinburgh Fringe fans have criticised the festival today and said the "obscene" cancelling of Father Ted writer Graham Linehan was a "black mark" on its long history of supporting stand-up and #freespeech.
