Elon Musk says that no one has died because he slashed humanitarian aid. I went to South Sudan to check if that's true. It's not. Within an hour of starting interviews, I had the names of a 10-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl who had died because of decisions by wealthy men in Washington.
The visit that moved me the most was to a remote area that used to have no health care, where women routinely died in childbirth. Then a US-funded maternity clinic opened through @UNFPA in December, and not one woman has died since. I showed up, and people mistakenly thought I was responsible for the clinic. One new mom wanted to name her baby for me, and the village elders thanked me and hailed America's generosity. What they didn't know was that Trump/Musk had cut all funding for UNFPA and that as a result the maternity clinic will close this month, and women will once again be bleeding to death in the dust.

@MAtangana_MFL @FranceintheUK @linguascope @education_gouv @FEI_sevres Yes, a British passport serves as a visa waiver for a 90 day entry into the Schengen space and as no IDs are issued for British nationals, a passport is the only form of identification.

This 👇is how Brexit has "unleashed 🇬🇧 farming" on the world, Liz Truss

Up until the UK left the Single Market, M&S in 🇲🇫 sold exactly the same fresh 🇬🇧 food as in the UK

It's reduced to tea, porridge and novelty biscuits in desultory M&S "corners" in what are now Monoprix 👇

Le braai - spécialité culinaire sud-africaine !

😋 Il faut de la patience pour préparer ces côtes d’agneau ou de mouton maturées plusieurs jours après un vigoureux traitement au sel et aux épices. Une des recettes du #braai, le barbecue au feu de bois si populaire en Afrique du Sud. https://t.co/dRXqRaVGhy

@tish_db @lidlfrance Nous sommes nombreux et envieux de l'offre sud africaine des pays Bas !!

[Tish @tish_db]

Bonjour @lidlfrance, nous sommes un grand nombre de Sud-Africains habitants en France et nous vous serions très reconnaissant si vous nous offrez une semaine d'Afrique, comme le fait Lidl Pays-Bas

@ThivhilaeliMk2 @willvdbyl @Ryanair
@DIRCO_ZA This is down to Ryanair (and not the UK Govt) "due to the recent increase in passengers attempting to travel on fraudulent South African passports" Apparently Ryanair also have no clue about the 11 official SA languages

[UK in South Africa🇬🇧🇿🇦 @ukinsouthafrica]

This is not a UK government requirement. Information of the requirements for South African Passport holders to enter the UK are available at https://t.co/t3Ry3BHqQT

[Will vd Byl @willvdbyl]

@Ryanair Just tried to check in. Flying Portugal - London. On a South African passport but have a UK residence permit. Was made to write a 2 page test in Afrikaans (asked for an English version but told the test was only in Afrikaans - btw SA has 11 official languages) (1/2).

@FrenchEmbassyZA Hello, do you have news for those currently in France under quarantine? Can the quarantine be lifted if they provide a negative pcr test result?

.@GabrielAttal bonjour, nous sommes un certain nombre de sud-africains qui ont notre résidence principale en France. Merci de nous inclurons parmi les ressortissants français et européens qui sont les seuls actuellement à voyager et à rentrer en France.

[Tish @tish_db]

@BFMTV Je présume que cette nouvelle mesure inclut les non européens avec un titre de séjour et qui ont leur résidence en France ?

@Outline_TV @FoodNetwork_UK That's sort of a French version of the quintessential South African street food - walkie talkies
