X has become wretched. The platform is undermining everything I believe in & my alogrithm feeds me content that does personalised harm. I loved old twitter but its well and truly over.

In recent months, our team has observed sharp increases in violent content, far-right conspiracy theories, false information being shared by ‘verified accounts’, and censorship of our own posts.
We have therefore decided to leave X. Our statement 👇

"It is payback for you daring to dream." Today, Dr Eva Khair described the conflict in Sudan as a war against civilians.

⚖️ICC: 'reasonable grounds' they 'bear criminal responsibility [for]the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, & other inhumane acts...&the war crime of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population'
Situation in the State of Palestine:

‘The UAE was dismayed when the US rapper Macklemore pulled out of a concert in Dubai over its role in Sudan. Its keenness to burnish its international standing means that a cultural boycott and protests by sports stars and fans could have real impact.’ https://t.co/sTDqLoIxpp
Grateful to @ayeshahazarika for inviting me on to @TimesRadio to shine a light on the devastating conflict, atrocities & famine in Sudan - grateful too for the chance to dig in to why the crisis isn’t getting the attention it deserves
#KeepEyesOnSudan
Why isn't more being done to address the world's biggest protection crisis?
This weekend @WordsAreDeeds joined @ayeshahazarika on @TimesRadio to discuss how colonial mindsets & the retreat of the rules-based system sees civilians paying the highest price.

So proud of our team delivering Active Bystander training to Londoners thanks to @TfL & @MayorofLondon
Last year, before our training only 28% of participants knew what to do if they witnessed a hate incident - that rose to 87% after they had completed our training 🫶
#NoToHate
Proud to be equipping Londoners with the tools to tackle hate and become Active Bystanders in partnership with @TfL and @MayorofLondon 🙌

Sources -- a cholera outbreak has begun in the al-Hol camp in NE #Syria, amid concerns that internal wells have been contaminated.
A cholera isolation center has been hurriedly set up, for patients. ~40,000 people live in al-Hol, in torrid conditions.
Thank you to @Abtisam_Mohamed, @BritPalCommitt & @GAPS_Network for this vital event, and a heartfelt thank you to @WclacPalestine for briefing Parliamentarians on the daily experience and specific needs of women and girls in the Gaza Strip and West Bank.
Absolutely heart-breaking and brave reporting from @moehash1 upon his first return to Omdurman and his home since the war.
We need more such reporting that looks beyond the numbers.

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Professor Paul Lowe, a brilliant photojournalist and cherished colleague. Visiting Professor in @warstudies, Paul worked closely with our Art and Reconciliation team. We send our deepest condolences to his family.
"How is this attempt to complete the destruction of a population begun 20 years ago not one of the dominant issues of our time, clearing the front pages & broadcast news, prompting hoarse demos & fervent protests?" @WordsAreDeeds is trying to wake the world to the horror in Sudan
My @NobelPrize prediction did not pan out. But mark my words: Sudan's Emergency Response Rooms are pioneering a transformative new model that combines humanitarian response + peacebuilding.
They may be the one thing that holds the Sudan together as men w/guns tear it apart.
An important offer from Sierra Leone. As states negotiate a resolution to move the CaH treaty forward, the venue of the diplomatic conference is key with Austria, New York & now Sierra Leone on the table. Shifting the venues where international law is made is vital for ownership.
🚨 New statistics on police-recorded hate crime in England and Wales (year ending March 2024) have been released: https://t.co/A4gPuyR0ZJ. Overall recorded incidents fell by 5% to 140,561. Racially motivated crimes remain the most common (98,799), despite a 5% drop.
I welcome @TFletcher’s appointment as UN Emergency Relief Coordinator.
The UN's role in providing humanitarian aid has never been more critical.
We look forward to supporting him in this vital leadership role for @UNOCHA and the wider humanitarian system.
Kitchens are closing as 100s are dying of hunger/disease daily.
Aid agencies aren’t in the worst areas, and increased attacks could drive out local volunteers, leaving Sudan’s most vulnerable to fend for themselves.
