It takes a few seconds but when you see it the sheer enormity of what you're looking at is hard to comprehend. Thermal imaging captures the immense scale of the bushfire front in the East Gippsland area of Victoria on 31 Dec. #AustralianBushfires

“Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate...So the only way he figures he’s going to get reelected, and as sure as you’re sitting there, is to start a war with Iran.”

“As far as I’m aware she does not have any degree in economics.” “I was and I remain a professor of economics.” This is what happened when a Brexit Party MEP questioned the expertise of Green MEP Molly Scott Cato over post-Brexit trade.

As Prime Minister, I will be an honest broker and not campaign for either side in the final say referendum. We will negotiate a good deal, put that to the people alongside remain and then implement your decision. We must bring the country together and get beyond Brexit.

I want to live in a country where we deal with the worst aspects of poverty in our society, we invest properly in our schools, we give all our children a real chance, and we have a health service that is really there for all of us at all times. #BBCQT

This is what’s been happening in #Iran during the near-total internet shutdown. Security forces have shot and killed at least 106 people with complete impunity in nationwide protests. This is what they don’t want the rest of the world to see. xitter.cf/Mansourehmi/status/119…

De stemming over #Brexit is uitgesteld. @KeesVee belde daarom opnieuw aan bij Theresa May, met een duidelijke boodschap: kies voor deze deal of blijf in de EU. Geïnspireerd op misschien wel de meest romantische Kerstfilm aller tijden. 😉 #loveactually #makelovedontbrexit
