We were delighted to recently to have VECTOR presented as part of KSL's community engagement day in the region of Lausitz in Germany. We were pleased to engage with the public about the minimally disruptive exploration technologies used in our research and our future outputs.

I keep seeing the line 'EU is having vaccine problems because it was too slow in negotiating contracts' repeated in 🇬🇧&🇺🇸 media.
I want to push back on this narrative because I think it's missing where real EU-level mistakes lie. Let's review what happened in past year (🧵1/17)

There was an amazing “levelling up” scheme. It was called #Erasmus.
It allowed this hairdresser’s daughter, (1st in the family to go to uni) to spend a year abroad and learn a language - unthinkable for my parents.
But you’ve just binned it, you arsehole. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-5…

Enormous xylophone in the woods of Kyushu, Japan plays a Bach tune when a wooden ball rolls down each "key." An impressive piece of engineering.

The Australien Government was not allowed to speak at the latest Climate Summit, so it made an ad about it’s climate policy instead – and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

Total reset needed of judicial system.
3 pedestrians mowed down and killed yesterday by suspected drunk driver. Hardly made the news.
* Coked-up at the wheel.
* Uninsured.
* Fled police at 135 mph.
* Overtook other cars and went through red lights.
* Drove at 70 mph on residential roads.
* Crashed the car, which flipped onto its roof.
Banned from driving for just TWO YEARS.

No not a glacial-interglacial cycle, but the NHS waiting list Aug 2007 - Sep 2019.
