11 years ago, a pivotal moment took place in the history of Ukraine. The Berkut special police unit killed 48 people in the center of Kyiv, Yanukovych fled, and the Russians started a war against Ukraine. Share this thread. It`s huge. 👇

Phoebs said on her 18th she had no wishes to make as she was ‘actually happy in life’. She took her life at Newcastle Uni & never made it to her 21st. We can save these lives by having a legal duty of care at our uni’s. PLEASE SIGN petition.parliament.uk/petit… – at Cranbrook, England

‼️ Masha, a 12 year old Russian girl, drew a picture in support of Ukraine. The regime’s authorities beat up Masha’s father, stole his savings, detained him and sent the girl to an orphanage. 1/6

Each year around now, I round up all the books I reviewed in the past 12 months; as a convenience for readers and to remind myself, I don't need to feel so horribly guilty about all the books I *didn't* review (to those authors: rest assured, I still feel horribly guilty). 1/

This is serious folks. For decades, British governments have been chipping away at arts education. They've gone for languages, they've gone for music, they've gone for the arts. Schools are being turned into cultural deserts. Please sign this petition.
I hate tweeting about anything to do with politics; but this is so ridiculous - even from a financial point of view - and so heartless. Isn't education supposed to improve the lives of young people? As the arts do... campaignforthearts.org/petit…

Amoral and power-hungry, Boris Johnson is lying with knowledge, calculation and abandon. He and his advisers have made a ruthless and sinister decision — to subvert and smash up British political culture.nytimes.com/2019/12/11/opini…

“It is not too late. We have an interview prepared. Oven-ready, as Mr Johnson likes to say” Andrew Neil issues a challenge for Boris Johnson to commit to an interview with him, to face questions on why people have “deemed him to be untrustworthy” bbc.in/2sP9AxU

@ 3M people have registered to vote in the leadup this election. @ 2M of those are age 18-34. It’s enough to move the polls 8%. By sharing this link, it is *YOU* who are changing this Election & making it more likely the Tories lose: gov.uk/register-to-vote

The Icelandic word GLUGGAVEÐUR means ‘weather that looks appealing from inside, but would be unpleasant to be outside in’. It literally means ‘window-weather’.

In light of #Yellowhammer I repeat the question I asked @Jacob_Rees_Mogg last week “What level of mortality are you willing to accept in a #NoDealBrexit?” It remains the ONLY question journalists should be asking, what level of harm are you willing to accept to any politician

Is there a single, recorded case of a Brexit campaigner telling voters we would - or even might - end up with no deal?
