🤔 ❓ What happened on #November9, that it is now known as the “fateful day” in #Germanhistory?
Even though it is not a public holiday, it is still a day of remembrance and commemoration. Let’s go back in time and see which events took place since 1848.

And getting the same reaction as George Osborne did at London 2012

I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate and thank the people of the United States of America for taking the mantle of World's Stupidest Nation from the shoulders of the United Kingdom
8 long years we bore that burden in Britain because of Brexit but now it's yours 🏆

11/11 Gaza has been made unlivable. Those with power to change the situation lack the will or courage to do so. Humanitarian assistance is not the solution to political failures. These atrocities must end, ICJ measures implemented, and perpetrators held to account. #CeasefireNOW

“Vulnerable newborns and sick and wounded children in need of intensive care are being killed in tents, in incubators and in the arms of their parents.”
Full statement from @UNICEFmena's @AdeleKhodr on the decimation of newborn care in the Gaza Strip: uni.cf/3UGdCm9
ALT The Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza has become a besieged war zone. Its neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the last remaining in the north, has reportedly been damaged in heavy attacks in recent days. Access to the hospital is incredibly difficult but reports indicate that children who were treated there have been killed and injured in these attacks and its oxygen and water supplies have been damaged, disrupting critical care for the few still clinging to life inside. - Adele Khodr, UNICEF Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa

Anyone else wondering how 71 million humans look at the choices and decide the orange racist rapist criminal is the better option?

RT @GreenRupertRead: A dire dire day for the living planet. Probably on balance literally the worst day ever.

Latest NASA global temperature data.
Earth has never been hotter since Homo sapiens discovered agriculture in the early Holocene. Likely even since 120,000 years ago.
Fossil coal, oil and gas emissions caused it.
We need to stop making it worse.
Yes, we can if we want to. 🧵

🎵 A top soprano has warned Britain risks losing its entire classical music industry due to post-Brexit red tape blocking UK artists from touring in the EU.
🎤 Labour promised to“improve trade and investment relations with the EU… to help our touring artists”, after years of chaos.
🎶 In a powerful intervention, English soprano Rachel Nicholls warned that “unless we are very careful, we are going to lose our entire classical music industry in this country”.

This week I'm paying someone £15 an hour to pick up the horse shit from my fields. It's an important job for my horses' health, but totally unskilled. And that's all @uhbtrust think their FY1s (qualified doctors) are worth per hour for overtime.
29 Oct 2024
These new extra-contractual rates in @uhbtrust are abysmal.
The average hourly rate for a plumber is £50 per hour.
For an emergency plumber it is £112.50 with a £110 call out fee.
Massive withdrawal of locums is the only answer to this.

I have some real concerns about what another Trump presidency means for women in this country — and I wanted to share some of my thoughts. If this resonates with you, send this video to every single person you know and remind them what’s at stake in this election.

The Conservatives took the NHS from the lowest waiting times and highest patient satisfaction to the worst crisis in its history.
They should be saying sorry, not seeking scapegoats.
This extraordinary attack on a dedicated public servant is beneath contempt.

“The National Health Service has had huge sums of money pumped into it, and yet its productivity has gone backward.”
Robert Jenrick’s position on sacking NHS chief Amanda Pritchard is “absolutely right”, says @MelJStride.

Politicians who don't want the ECHR to apply to them are exactly the kinds of politicians the ECHR is designed to protect us from.

Have you considered not releasing 50 million non-native game birds into our ecosystem each year in order to shoot them, and going for a walk instead?
10 Oct 2024
The value of shooting?👇
It brings friends and communities together, helping people to enjoy the fresh air whilst at the same time keeping active.
Delivering a positive mental health boost for hundreds of thousands. Shooting's social side!👏

This! I learned today I have to limit export from my planned solar set up as the local grid can’t handle it. In a major city. @nationalgrid must do better
