There's a lot of angry, irrational rhetoric out there after a brave South African team failed to win another semi-final. I think its worth saying this: 1. Only one team can win a WC. Yes, it's never been South Africa but it's also never been a few others espncricinfo.com/story/icc-c…
For South Africa, everything isn't enough

For South Africa, everything isn't enough

They did many things right, but many things wrong in the semi-final too, and will go back and reflect on a World Cup campaign that could have ended very differently

Call it a draw. Far better than having some poor Spurs player hoof it over the bar #FIFAWorldCup

Must watch! Really innovative 1 minute video to raise awareness on (safely managed) #sanitation in Indonesia, and with almost 1M views. Loving the mix of Hitchcock and ghostbusters imagery... @UNICEFIndonesia youtube.com/watch?v=caE_niN4…

We are resolute that this outrageous decision by the SABC will be challenged by all endeavouring to see an independent SABC newsroom. The public, the main stakeholder in the institution, envisage no such political interference at the public broadcaster.

Cake ambush is a lot more common than Islington leftists realise. With their vegan diets they probably don’t encounter many lusciously baked cakes. Thus their ignorance of this. Cake ambush happens to decent, ordinary folk who will sympathise with Boris.

Water doesn’t come from a tap - it comes from wetlands! But the world’s wetlands are in crisis. 35% of wetlands have been lost in the past 50 years. On #WorldWetlandsDay, it's time to commit to an Emergency Recovery Plan for #freshwater biodiversity wwf.panda.org/?359878/Emerge…
