Zarafa was a Nubian giraffe gifted to France’s Charles X by Mohamed Ali in 1836.
It took six weeks for the 🦒 to reach Paris from Marseille. The French tailored a raincoat for her.
She lived in the Jardin des Plantes.

Word of the day is a reminder of 'ipsedixitism' (16th century): the assertion that something is 'fact' because someone else said so.

The problem is we speak the same language and watch the same TV. So people often just assume we’re similar to Americans. But we’re not these days. Why? Because they are absolutely minted (technical term for 60% richer than us)

Worldwide there are 222 million children not recieving an education who urgently need our help - the majority being girls.
Instead of developing just some of the potential of some of the world, we must work to develop the potential of every child everywhere.

11th February, sitting in @RoryStewartUK campaign HQ. @ScottDRLiddle had just come back from a meeting that convinced him it would change everything. We then started to stare at the stats with an impending sense of dread.
