Season 2 of “The President Trump Show” is a mess. Even worse than Season 1. The writers are increasingly resorting to cheap stunts to get the audience's attention, with no regard to plausibility. A real president would never be this stupid, petty, or irresponsible.

I've just donated to help reopen Orkney's Tomb of the Eagles. I hope you will consider doing the same.
It's a hugely important Neolithic chambered tomb where white-tailed eagle bones & talons from up to 20 birds were placed 800-1000 years after the tomb was first used.

We must learn the full scale of the horrors that have been committed.
We must uncover the truth about the UK’s complicity in genocide.
And we must continue to demand the only path to a just and lasting peace: an end to the occupation of Palestine. [2/2]

A relief indeed. But what a horrific waste of lives, resources and infrastructure.
#Gaza ceasefire is such a relief - tho it could have been agreed months ago & saved so much suffering & pain. And effects of genocide will be felt for years - unexploded ordinance, destruction of infrastructure, health system etc. Lasting peace must involve an end to occupation & a Palestinian state

If we want privatisation to be removed from the NHS, NHS campaigners like me have a *lot* of work to do next year and…I’d just like to see if people care enough about this for our campaigning to work…
