A week after BBC Woman's Hour did the same, the Daily Mail today also highlighted the 1.9 million children with speech and language challenges who need our committed support - and that includes the Government's.

Anger rising @cop29 against Big Ag's lobbyists who are once more out in force to try and capture the narrative and greenwash... Read @MoveTheWorld's @kellydent's pushback here: desmog.com/2024/11/18/big-ag…… My photo.
Great reporting by @NadaFarhoud of the stories that should be written at @COP29 but too often aren't. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/me…
Women work 43% of agricultural land, feeding communities, protecting the environment. Yet they're overlooked. Time @COP29 championed the role they play in tackling climate change.@movetheworld CEO @triciacroasdell tells delegates @China Pavillion
Women do hold up half the sky...@movetheworld's @ttcroasdell joins China's Vice Ecology and Environment Minister, Zhao Yingmin, at the People's Republic of China's @COP29 Pavillion.
Most tragic news. Anna Lo, who has died aged 74, was courage personified. I had the pleasure of spending a day with her in Belfast. Most upsetting news and immense loss. scmp.com/magazines/post-maga…

Shop workers on Beijing's Wangfujing Street come out to support the students as they march to Tiananmen Square in 1989. Behind them is a message to leader Deng Xiaoping: 'Time to step aside, Old Deng!'

Mass hunger strike on Tiananmen Square, 1989. This photo, taken by a friend, conveys the hope and solidarity of those days: fasting students waving flags, volunteer medics caring for the sick, everyone united in the peaceful and earnest struggle for freedom and democracy in China

For 35 years, Chinese leaders have tried to erase all memory of the Tiananmen protests and the brutal massacre that crushed them. Last week I found a file of photos I took in Beijing in 1989, most of which I haven't seen since. I will post some now to commemorate those times.
Peter Simpson retweeted
Each year I feel a duty to remind people of the massacre of 3/4 June 1989 around Tiananmen Sq. And each year I get assailed by bots and others, doing the job of Chinese Communist Party propaganda, who claim it didn’t happen or was all a US-plot. Sorry: it did, and it wasn’t.

Agriculture day has been marked at #COP28, and the Agriculture and Food Authority (FAO) has launched a roadmap to eradicate hunger, but in a manner that maintains global warming at no more than 1.5C.
The World Animal Protection says while this roadmap is commendable, strong language on factory farming would have been better. Kelly Dent speaks to NMG's @ZeynWandati
“Big agbiz presence at #cop28 is ok - as long as they are bringing with them solutions that involve everyone, and inclusive enough that smallholders can also be part of them,” says @MoveTheWorld’s @itsangelaflores @food4climate esgmena.com/cop28-food-syste…
