Do you want to see where crackpot fundamentalism leads?
Look no further than the Taliban’s new law prohibiting women from speaking outside of their homes.
The world needs to speak out against this latest abomination.

This image of Zelenskyy stopped me in my tracks. The world has got to step up and do more to help Ukraine. Russia will not stop. And words won't stop Russia - heavy weapons will. Let Ukraine defend itself. Let Ukraine live.

The @AngelaRayner saga. I get it. Attack dog attacked. Karma.
But really?
A police investigation into whether she was registered at wrong address?
Is that it?
Not that she voted twice, no act of personation.
It seems petty beyond belief and a total waste of police time

I'm deeply concerned that some children are attending political protests during the school day.
Even more so if they're taking part in, or being exposed to, antisemitic chants.
This should be treated with the utmost seriousness - missing school for activism is unacceptable.

Leaving the European Convention of Human Rights would have been normatively absurd, but it is also now emerging that the UK public simply does not want the Conservative Govt to even contemplate such a move - twice as many Britons want the UK to stay in the #ECHR rather than leave
Another major poll has found that twice as many Britons want to stay part of the European Convention on Human Rights rather than quit:

Really good @BBCNews piece about a top Iranian chess ♟️ player #SaraKhadem totally ignored by the press inside her own country because she chooses to play without hijab but hugely celebrated by the people. The women are going to win this. Watch. #WomanLifeFreedom #MahsaAmini
Shameful

Justin Pearson and Justin Jones. There is a reason Republicans expelled them. They're Black. They are better, more talented, and braver than Republicans ever dream of being. And they — along with every Gen Z-er — are about to be Republicans' worst nightmare.

To all women who came before us and made it easier.
To all leaders - in politics and society - role-models to many young girls.
To Ukrainian women who have shown unprecedented bravery.
To the women on the streets of Iran.
On #IWD2023 we thank you for being an inspiration.
