Day 410 of Taliban’s ban on girls’ education.🇦🇫

Great education teaches critical thinking and there is no greater threat to power structures than critical minds. That is the only reason that the Taliban don’t let Afghan girls learn.

What a great set of recommendations from fabulous authors

Shameful humblebrag from proud Auntie! My niece & nephew are on TV tonight discussing their future in #tennis . Despite their talent being spotted in London, @The_LTA has still not reached out to them directly & seems to lack a pathway for many talented #minority youngsters

#Taliban have arrested Zarifa Yaqoubi, women rights main activists in Kabul today.

FFS. What an insult to Belize. These tyrants and charlatans have got to go

Matt Hancock said politicians must 'go where the people are'

I hate to break it to you, Matt. But ‘the people’ aren’t in the jungle eating witchetty grubs to change our reputation for overseeing the deaths of thousands & breaking our own lockdown rules.

I’m sick of #queer erasure here in the 🇬🇧 #Terf dominated narratives in the media & politicians attacking #trans folks with disinformation rile up hatred against #LGBTQIA folks.

We deserve to be happy, to live our lives authentically. Jeez just give us a damn break!

This is tragic. What has our country come to?
