I added my name to demand real action from the UK government – not just words - to protect civilians and humanitarian workers in Gaza with @dotwuk.bsky.social. 💙 Please take a minute to do the same.

We couldn’t afford any of those trips - not the Isle of Man (primary school), france (secondary school) or anywhere. My first trip out of the UK was a daytrip to Boulogne as a student organised with friends. I hope he has fun in Estonia & & packed his thermals. ❄️❄️❄️

Very important interview with Kim Leadbeater, well worth a listen. She speaks with knowledge & compassion about this subject. She’s an impressive MP, drawn to public service by personal tragedy. Well done @lewisgoodall.com
