Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change. bbc.com/future/article/20190…

At 9:15am today, Wales will fall silent to remember those who were taken from us in the Aberfan disaster.
60 years may have passed, but we will never forget them.

Disabled people can now report media coverage that scapegoats and stigmatises them and contributes to the hostile environment many of them face in their daily lives, thanks to a new campaign.

Very sad news that the wonderful Bonnie Greer, playwright and novelist has died aged 77. I interviewed her a couple of times and watched her on BBC QT. She was a smart, sassy, firebrand who will be missed from our public discourse RIP 🙏🏽

Oops!
Reform seems to have lost the Telegraph.
This weekend's gross greasing of palms may be a step too far for Farage.
Never again can they be portrayed as anti-establishment or a party for working people.

An anti-migrant protest is under way in Portsmouth.
Sky's @danwnews says there is 'clearly anger' from the crowds, but it is 'very different' to the protest last weekend, which saw people clash with police after an RNLI boat carrying more than 100 migrants arrived in the city.

Last night, 2,977 lights rose above New York Harbor, one for each life lost on September 11, 2001, before forming the Twin Towers against the New York City skyline.
The commemorative installation was created in collaboration with members of the 9/11 community, including family members, survivors and first responders, to mark the 25th anniversary of the attacks.

Hundreds of protesters have descended on Portsmouth, where a small boat thought to be containing asylum seekers and heading towards the coast sparked a major response with a helicopter, aeroplane and lifeboats sent to the scene.
