Today is International Owl Awareness Day and I had a hoot putting together this thread of international owl phrases, starting with this one…

It’s almost three months since the government was defeated in the Court of Appeal in its attempt to curb our right to protest. It should now be reviewing all arrests made under these unlawful powers

The right-wing press is going mad over votes at 16 ("a naked attempt to twist democracy in Labour’s favour", an "election-rigging move"...)
Oddly, they said the same 100 years ago when the voting age for women fell from 30 to 21.
