After the 220th anniversary of Trafalgar, I'm thinking of the little girl taken to see HMS Victory & bought a book on Nelson.

27ish years later I've lectured internationally, including Antarctica & the Falkland Islands. I've delivered talks for the Royal Navy & taught at the US Naval Academy 🧵
As someone going through the same internal processes with my employer I support this decision.
Remote work is a game changer for people with disabilities

It can allow us to remain in the workforce longer, help us manage doctors appointments, flare ups and medication and create a better work/life balance.

I hope this landmark case is the first of many:
Woman wins right to work from home every day in landmark case
Australia’s Fair Work Commission rules there is no reasonable ground to refuse the request

Mad moments in British politics- Badenoch: Argentina president Milei would be a ‘template’ for my government. A few months after she said that, thanks to Milei, Argentina is now on the brink of its worst crisis of insolvency and hyperinflation, with the peso practically worthless against the dollar.
I went to school with his kids, they were cunts too.

The pound of masonry, which I demand of his house,
Is dearly bought; 'tis mine and I will have it.
If you deny me, fie upon your law!
Alas poor points-free license: I knew him well.
Once more unto the porch dear friends!

Have long loved Benjamin Zephaniah and I've reading his poems to my daughter for quite some time.

To hear his words from the mouth of a UK politician gives me real hope.

Join the Greens.

Today.

Go...get a move on.

Yes, you!

Please and thank you.

It’s a proper Darwinian conundrum, in fighting ICE they’re on the right side of history but simultaneously it’s easy to equate the people who’d pick up a tear gas grenade with the people we write ‘do not drink’ on bleach bottles for….. either way it’s proof the ‘well armed militia’ argument is dead.
