Love is a choice, not a feeling. Feelings come and go, and if we choose to base our most important relationships on how we feel at any particular moment, we are in for a rough and rocky journey. Love is a verb, not a noun. Love is something we do, not something that happens to

Education is the beating heart of the infrastructure of opportunity, but “place” —where you live—is the body that holds it. Place frames everything else. It has the greatest impact on an individual’s educational and economic opportunity and ability to build wealth. It can hold

I think there seems to have been some kind of a mix up here Stadium of Light - it appears I’m watching Barcelona! #Sunderland absolutely brilliant! Fantastic football ⚽️ #SAFC

Roko Šimić will be a fantastic signing for #Sunderland. I’ve seen him play when I was in Austria last year, and I was really impressed with his natural talent and ability to read the game. He’d fit straight into the first team and become a real starlet. Exciting times #SAFC

Scientists testing the #TurinShroud recently made a breakthrough discovery after analysing the cloth 'Jesus was buried in'. Italian scientists using a highly advanced x-ray technique were able to confirm that the shroud IS from the time of #Jesus. And now AI technology shows us

The world we build tomorrow is born in the stories we tell our children today. Politics moves the pieces. Education changes the game.

Well done to former #Sunderland Number 1, Vito Mannone, now at LOSC. Part of a hugely talented squad that is now through to the group stage of the UEFA Champions League. Playing with the best, where he belongs. Interestingly, Vito was coached by Régis Le Bris last year. #SAFC

Crucial few days for #Israel and #Palestine. Mass protests and nationwide strike called as Israeli people demand a ceasefire and new leadership. Netanyahu's handling of ceasefire negotiations appropriately described as a 'moral disgrace' by his defence minister. Praying for peace

Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual, and therefore the future of our society. I’m pleased to see the government is working to ease the pressure of Ofsted, and supporting our fantastic teachers.

#PopeFrancis traveled to the remote jungles of Papua New Guinea today, to celebrate the #Catholic Church of the peripheries, bringing with him a ton of medicine, musical instruments and a message of love for the people who live there. He said: “Love is stronger than everything.

“It’s hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help... If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." - Pope Francis.
