@washingtonpost.com quoting UNRWA @unrwa.org it’s 91.8% now:

“Nearly 91.8% of school buildings in Gaza (518 out of 564) will either need full reconstruction or major rehabilitation work to be functional again.”

@washingtonpost 91.8% of schools have been severely damaged or destroyed, according to the U.N. Most children in Gaza have not been to school in two years. Those that remain open have been turned into shelters for displaced families. More than 700 teachers have been killed in the war, according to the local education ministry.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe spent part of the £4bn tax bill he dodged to fund Manchester United.

That is how the UK works you pay tax, the big people don't and they get richer and richer and RICHER.

What the hell does Farage thinks he’s doing, going off to America *again* to maliciously slag off British teachers at some private Christian college, while offering to peddle their courses over here?
What a repulsive, grubby little traitor.

Nigel Farage accuses teachers of "poisoning our kids" on race issues.

Here's a reminder of what teachers and fellow pupils at Farage's own school remember of his own views on that subject.

Really enjoying @jonathanliew.bsky.social’s new opinion column, including this excellent piece on the ethics of British comedians playing the Saudi Riyadh comedy festival. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
We know what the comedians got out of the Riyadh comedy festival. What about the Saudi regime? | Jonathan Liew
The tawdry event was an ultimately doomed attempt by the Saudi government to buy the kind of authentic grassroots culture it is unwilling to countenance, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value.

This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025.

Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment.

Be warned.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

But, the "China approving new coal power projects at the equivalent of two plants every week" narrative persists.

Meanwhile, UK won’t have 6.4GW of nuclear in a decade, maybe/hopefully/probably 🤞🏽 - also funded/built by China: t.ly/6bIgT

Theo Usherwood not mincing his words on the Tory Party:

“No, I thinks it’s gone… gone, completely gone… I think the Tory party’s gone… I think it’s had it… I don’t see how… the Tories can come back in the next 10 to 15 years… they’re toast.”

@yarahawari.bsky.social : "Over the last 2 years we've seen the near complete destruction of Gaza.. the likelihood is that number [of deaths] will be a lot higher once the work to remove the rubble takes place.. the mental toll [on Palestinians] will continue for generations.."

While Australia debates the merits of going nuclear and frustration grows over the slower-than-needed switch to solar and wind power, China's renewables rollout is breaking all the records.
