Just back from chemo unit - first denosumab injection.
Most of the staff were ‘non white’ ~ they might not even have had A level English! Shock, horror!

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif.
He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza.
