Freedom of movement also means the freedom to love beyond national borders.
The European Court of Justice ruled today: A marriage lawfully concluded in one EU country must be recognised across the Union.
Love in one EU country is love in all. 🌈🇪🇺

Neil, 17 Nov '25. He's a very diligent dad, coming after sunset for seeds for his babies (the damp patches at the sides of his beak are from them crop feeding). It wasn't as dark as it looked, though - taken with the flash from inside a lit room. #PigeonSky ##BirdOfTheDay

👏 👏 @chelfulhamben.bsky.social: "The swiftest way to achieve growth is for the Government to be even more ambitious in negotiating with the European Union."
Exactly right. Closer relations with the EU will boost our economy.

We welcome the provisional agreement between @europarl.europa.eu and @consilium.europa.eu on the welfare of dogs and cats.
The new measures will significantly improve the way these animals are treated when bred, sold or adopted in the EU.

I always love books like these. As much as I enjoy reading up on some political, economic, or social aspect of medieval society in my own particular field or more generally, sometimes I just want to know about what medieval people thought about foxes or swans.
In need of some new trivia or interesting conversation starters for the Christmas dinner table? Discover more about the fascinating (and sometimes bizarre) ways that medieval people perceived the natural world in our Medieval Animals series.

🇪🇺 If you are married in one EU country, your union should still be recognised across all EU countries. This is what the European Court of Justice ruled this Tuesday.

"Given Reform won't, he must. So will he know launch a national investigation into Russian infiltration into our politics?"

A small good thing from social media - I visited a church museum and posted photos of a cool thing and then heard from a scholar who said my photos were the best he could find of said cool thing and could he use one for his article? And now it’s out!

I adore this...!
I like her style! Such lustre to this bottle green satin which is the backdrop to the whisper of black feathers that pattern the cloth. The house of Worth was famous for fabulous fabric and never was this more apparent than in this early #1890s gown. Sold via #KerryTaylorAuct #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Trump envoy Steve Witkoff has been outed as a Russian asset. This is traitorous stuff.
Steve Witkoff helped Russia derail Ukraine’s access to Tomahawk missiles. He tipped off the Kremlin about Zelensky’s U.S. visit, giving Moscow time to arrange a call that convinced Trump to block the deal. Witkoff actively works against Ukraine’s defense, in coordination with Putin’s regime.
