5 Arteta seasons there out of 9 already lol.
I genuinely would advice our chronically attention seeking fanbase to enjoy this period because a decade from now you will really miss this.
You guys waste too much time on what we "cannot do" that you lose sight of what we can do.

One year of partnership. A growing world of opportunity. 🌏
Together with @IBM, we’re working to help more young people access the skills, experiences, and networks they need to explore careers in STEM through tools and programmes such as @IBM's SkillsBuild.
From Miami to Silverstone to Austin, our first year together has created opportunities for young people to get closer to these industries. This film looks back at our time in Miami and celebrates the young people at the heart of the partnership so far - here’s to what comes next! 🚀

What does it really mean to give young people a meaningful role in shaping the decisions that affect them?
Mission 44 Youth Advisor Sandip joined us at Labour Party Conference in Liverpool - his first party conference - bringing his own experiences and perspective to conversations on AI, devolution, and community-led change.
His biggest takeaway? Meaningful youth voice has to go beyond representation. Young people need genuine opportunities to contribute, challenge ideas, and help shape what happens next.
In our latest blog, Sandip reflects on three days of conversations, the questions he’s taking away, and why young people shouldn’t be the exception when it comes to having a seat at the table.

What needs to change to better support young people’s mental health? For #YouthMentalHealthDay, we put this question to our Youth Advisors.
Their messages are clear: young people deserve to feel seen, heard, and supported.
Today, and every day, we’re making space for their voices - and the changes they want to see 💛

This #NationalInclusionWeek, we’re celebrating what’s possible when opportunity is opened up across motorsport 🏎️

From the race track to the many careers behind it, we’re working to help more young people see that there’s a place for them in the industry.

More access. More opportunity. More inclusion in motorsport. 🏁

Some of the commentary around Labour's likely candidate in Holborn and St Pancras is deeply unpleasant. She came here as a child refugee (something she had zero control over). She has since made something of her life, volunteered for charities, got active in local politics, led a council and now wants to represent her community in parliament. Are people arguing that there should *never* be a place in public life for individuals like her? Are these the same people who complain when immigrants don't integrate or respect our way of life? Come on. Oppose her politics by all means (I suspect I'd disagree with her on an awful lot). But don't insist that she has no right to stand in a democratic election.

Whatever you think about Jason Arday and this story, the words and tone from some about his family and his death has been repugnant. Common to say social media has rotted the mind- for some it seems to have rotted the soul, as well.

Great to hear our CEO, @Jason_Arthur, on @bbc5live discussing what it will take to create more opportunities for young people.
Every young person deserves the chance to thrive and that means tackling the barriers holding too many back and building systems that work for everyone.
