They will regret it unless they start listening to the many that are struggling this winter. Andy Burnham comes over as one of the people unlike so many of our current leadership..Why aren’t they listening? And more importantly helping?

Heartbreaking to see millions in the Philippines forced to evacuate as another super typhoon hits.

These storms are stronger and more frequent because of the climate crisis. We need global solidarity and real action for climate resiliency and recovery.

Inside Gaza, BBC sees total devastation after two years of war With endless rubble and destroyed streets as far as the eye can see, any plans for Gaza's future are a far cry from where it is today, writes Lucy Williamson.

Destruction on this scale is beyond any reasonable definition of legitimate military retaliation. It is systematic ethnic cleansing. Collective punishment of an entire community.
Everything is indiscriminately flattened. Hospitals, schools, homes. Everthing.

His disappointment with the way the world is developing broke my heart….. but so true. There’s little to feel optimistic about.
Remembering the 50’s, flick knives, glass bottles, gangs, just now we have different weapons of choice…

Any time one of those fake foreign British nostalgia accounts starts banging on about the 50s, send them this wonderful interview with Don McCullin, and his description (familiar to me from the 70s) of how brutal London was in the 50s

@aiannucci.bsky.social Your β€˜strong message here’ about Apple TV’s Tehran was so good to hear. I’m watching it for the 3rd time. Characterization is essential for the success of any film or work of fiction and both this and Slow Horses are excellent examples as are French films and TV.

Hiroshima: Before and After the Atomic Bombing Later this month,Β Barack Obama will become the first U.S. president to visit Hiroshima, 71 years after the United States dropped the first atomic weapon used in warfare on the city in 1945.

Eighty years ago, on August 6, 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Our senior editor Alan Taylor found these prewar and postwar images of the city on his visit to the U.S. National Archives. (From 2016)

It was a difficult night for firefighting teams as flames spread through a steep valley in the Sheikh Hassan area of Qastal Ma’af in northern Latakia. Strong winds caused the fire to jump from burning spots into the valley, despite the firebreaks prepared by the teams.
