Have just heard an Israeli spokesman say on the BBC say that this starving child, is a PR tool. Sick!
Mesmerised by some great swimming races. Delighted to see Mona McSharry 🇮🇪 win🥉and some great performances by GB swimmers.
Just looking at Adam Peaty receiving his Silver Medal having been pipped to Gold. 🥇🥇🥈in three consecutive Olympic Games is some record.
Pausing to remember the 50th anniversary of the Dublin & Monaghan bombings. The biggest atrocity on the island of Ireland during the troubles with 34 people killed & over 300 injured. All innocent victims.
I remember it well.

Sitting in Oxford looking at dreadful scenes in Dublin that pushed the war in Gaza off the headlines. There is no excuse for attacks on Gardai by thugs & hooligans setting the city alight. This is all the far right mob #IrelandfortheIrish have to offer - fascism!

Transport made up 24% of all carbon emissions in the UK in 2020. Most of this was from road transport.
The Government's response?
❌Cut active travel budgets.
❌Cut bus and train services.
