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.

If we are going to talk about farmers, let’s not forget this.
Boris Johnson promised farmers that “subsidies would stay - 100% guaranteed”.

🚜 The National Farmers’ Union council was overwhelmingly in support of “Remain”, but decided not to campaign outright, as it would upset some of their larger farmers who were cheering Brexit.
What happened to those post-Brexit farm subsidies?
We need a discussion about UK food and farming, our resilience to external and self-inflicted events, and where the money is going

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

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.

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🧵

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.
