This is me right now learning Norwegian…!
Strongly feel that adults learning a new language should be treated like babies doing the same thing. Look, I'm going through a developmental leap this week, so I'm just going to be more cranky, hungrier, cry a lot at night etc.

Happy to see the U.K. and other commonwealth members recognising Palestine as a state. It’s behind time and I hope will lead to a peaceful transition to two separate states in the Holy Land.

From the parliamentary report on Iran. Just quickly — does anyone know if the UK has places that teach languages to a high level, and if so, what the government policy on them is?

The Israeli attacks on Iran feel like a desperate throw of the dice to try and wrest back at least some international support for the failing Netanyahu government. Attacking Iran won’t bring around regime change in Tehran, only reinforce the contention that the status quo is the only option. Madness

As someone with chronic, degenerative pain, I am sickened by the decision taken in Parliament today. Doctors should never be involved in the taking of life, only its preservation. Shocking bill, poorly drafted with loopholes big enough to drive a JCB through.
