I still remember how bad a state every single one of these dogs were in when I found them in various bad situations in Thailand.

This was a surprise from the @happydoggo.com team. Talk about emotional just 3 hours before the Marathon!

We took a little time to get things set up and start gifting but because of your unstinting support we've been able to do more than we imagined over these years.

Thanks to you all for turning your compassion into life-changing Acts of Kindness. ❤️

I can’t get over how good Jon Richardson is in #WaterlooRoad – the man can ACT. I’m always a bit cautious when comedians take on serious roles, but he’s absolutely nailed it. Honestly worth a watch, even if you’ve not seen WR in years (or ever).

It's a bit late for a school night, but the new series of Waterloo Road is airing either side of the 10pm News. Just in case you thought there was only one episode tonight. #WaterlooRoad

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.

But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.

That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

It seems America voted for measles
In an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal, Kennedy said he decided to retire the 17 independent vaccine experts from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices because the panel has become a “rubber stamp” for vaccines.

Kennedy said the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, a group of experts who recommend vaccines, has been "plagued with persistent conflicts of interest."

Gaza community kitchens say food is running out after two months of Israeli blockade.

“We used to receive more than 100 trucks every week - trucks of food parcels and hygiene kits. Now we don't have anything.”

UN warns of starvation if blockade holds.

The U.S. has actively dismantled the global disease-detection programs we all—including Americans—rely on to stay safe

Today this administration’s short-sighted global health agenda got even even worse

It’s ending its support for vaccine programs around the world

Why?? 🧵
