Our last Christmas present - the most delicious one, yet bitter sweet - arrived in the mail from Jerusalem, Palestine. Just made it before we put the tree away.

Came across this quote today: “…mercy is no substitute for justice”, Sr Catherine Sullivan, nurse at the former leprosarium, Carville, LA, 1920s. I know the same sentiment has been expressed by many in history. A good reminder for global health, especially when “charity” does not advance justice.

Watermelon Slice | Soap | LUSH When you buy this fresh and fruity soap, 100% of the profits will be donated solely to projects providing urgently-needed mental health support for children in Gaza and the West Bank.

If you’re looking for stocking fillers or just small presents for Christmas, here’s an idea.

Depends. If restaurant is strictly business and all you care for is profit, you will not care about food, quality, health etc. If you’re passionate about your food and have other concerns e.g. healthy, ethical etc then that’s where you start. I guess I know which one Badenoch would more be like.

Here’s a short story about who wins and loses from the status quo of our inheritance tax rules - and about, what you might politely call ‘sub-optimal’ journalism🧵

Hi Jonathan, a friendly reminder about your use of the “L” word here - people affected by leprosy (of which there are still millions) do not like being called that. Here’s why, from the Leprosy Mission website. Perhaps you can do a little correction?

I have just watched the trailer for the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, and I cannot, but cannot, wait until 17 January to see the film.

I’ve just arrived and it seems my people are not here yet, so here’s a photo from my midday walk earlier today at Darlands Nature Reserve.
