Another primary school targeted with abuse because of a Nativity that mentions refugees (now cancelled). You know it’s bad when the atheists have to start quoting scripture. My brothers in Christ, meet Jesus. He was a refugee www.christianitytoday.com/2025/01/jesu...

Horrible update. The far right say they will continue to target that primary school until they get their way www.thenational.scot/news/2564569...

This is a tweet from WHO from 2024. You can clearly see Streeting has ignored all of this. Not saying it’s perfect advice but it does say about ventilation. We need to stop following populists over a cliff edge.

The far right targeting a primary school is absolutely disgusting. These English classes are for the pupil’s PARENTS. Just shows people have NO idea how much schools do for families and it’s only a problem when the parents aren’t white www.thetimes.com/uk/scotland/...

#WorldChildrensDay gives us a chance to think about where we are in Scotland and, most importantly, what matters to children. Time to reflect on our policies, laws, and how they impact on the real lives of children and families.

Another school term and another year of barriers, challenges and misery for some children and families and a blatant disregard for children's rights

@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social why have you taken away vaccines from most clinically vulnerable when the research is showing serious post infection risks? Why are UKHSA not looking at this research? What is the justification?

If we are to build a broad consensus in Europe against Trump, we need to bring Palestine into equal focus with Ukraine, argues @martinshaw.bsky.social

Everyone should watch this important video. Labour are currently saying that they agree with Lisa Ritchie in the covid inquiry that Covid isn’t airborne but Bridget Phillipson was chastising the Tories in Parliament for not mitigating in 2022. Now they are in, apparently it’s not longer airborne 🤷‍♀️🧵

You can't do ecology without doing politics. Not any more. Maybe you never could. Any ecologist with half a brain ends up politicised.

Woooooooo ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Someone’s done it - archived the entire datasets of the US CDC before the orange toddler could destroy them.

Please RT 🙏

If anyone from the USA or elsewhere wants to see how British humour is used to great effect, firstly, ignore the video.

And then read the (thousands of) comments.

Some great work here. Well done all.

The UK is the only Western country to not protect immunocompromised people from #COVID in 6 years and also to give poor access to antivirals and vaccines to all clinically vulnerable. I’m going to say that again, the UK is the only Western country to NOT protect immunocompromised people 🧵

Do not obey in advance

Can we have a statement from the @royalsociety.org on whether Musk’s repeated posting of misinformation on X complies with the Fellows’ code of conduct? Is there no expectation that they provide evidence for claims? Are there no norms?

It is possible for your heart to break for the Israeli civilians lost, maimed or missing whilst also acknowledging the decades of suffering by the Palestinians. Neither peoples seem well served by their current leaderships. Until that changes, it’s hard to see a glimmer of hope.

Superb idea!

So I conducted a wee experiment in the car this morning. While sitting on my own for 1hr, engine off, windows closed, I watched the CO2 number rise on my Aranet.
I've previously checked and it's fine when the engine is running - but it's an easily avoided danger to be aware of.
