I hope you'll take a moment for these beautiful parting words from the incomparable Jane Goodall.

One of these days a senior politician will actually say something positive about the 10 million people living and working in the UK who happen to have been born abroad, but that day is not today

It's maddening to me how much Covid is at the root of so many of today's crises and we just...don't talk about it?

Take the spike in children needing SEND provision. Did anything huge and traumatic happen recently that might have affected thousands of kids? No? Must be parents making it up

Having spent the weekend in Frinton, visiting both Walton and Clacton … “the Mar-a-Lago of Eastern England” … this did make me chuckle this morning. So many good lines, names, and quotes! 😂

I don't see Trump demanding elections in Russia.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
