๐ดDay 1,740 of Afghan women being denied the right to education.
The Taliban regime continues to forbid girls an education beyond primary school level. Afghanistan is the only country in the world with strict bans on higher education for women. This has left women in the region with very few options.

On the 10th anniversary of Brexit Mike Galsworthy at the March for Rejoin, reminds us why we should rejoin the European Union #RejoinEU
"Why rejoin the EU?"
"Because the EU is the power that stands up for our values and gives us opportunity, and is the anti-tyranny force, in this world that is now dominated by Trump and Putin"
"It's where our natural team is and it's based on the values that we ourselves wrote into it after WWII"
"It's our home, it's our family"
๐ดDay 1,738 of Afghan women being excluded from public life.
Millions of Afghan girls are still banned from attending school as part of the Taliban's crackdown on female rights. Education is not a privilege; itโs a basic human right. A right Afghan girls continue to be denied.
You are not forgotten.

Michelle Obama: We simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent, to wring our hands in despair, or to wait for someone else to fix the problem. Hope is all we have, because hope is the essential spark that lights the fire of change. But hope is a choice. Whether or not we use our voices to speak up is a choice. Voting is a choice. Being a decent human being is a choice. Believing that we still hold the power to build a country that reflects us all is a choice.
Today, my wife & I joined Donald Trumpโs hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime - they are simply trying to find one.
He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.
He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history.
We have nothing to hide.ย
Mr. President, come after me. I am not going anywhere.ย
The country is watching.
Day 1,677 of Afghan girls being barred from getting an education.
This cannot go on. Restricting the basic human rights of an entire generation of women poses an existential threat for #Afghanistan.
You are not forgotten.
