The Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace, Washington DC

Dicovered this today. Well worth a listen. A Radiohead fan too. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Former political prisoner Nasrin Parvaz reads a letter to Keir Starmer signed by more than 100 pro-democracy, pro-justice and anti-war British-Iranians, including other former Evin detainees Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Aras Amiri. Full list of signatories is at togetherforiran.org

I've called on the UK government to stop ALL arms sales to Israel. Sign. 👇👇 www.oxfam.org.uk/get-involved...

Our letter condemning the genocide in #Gaza and calling for an immediate ceasefire. A great crime is being committed, and we cannot stand by. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Fumbling around with an iPhone scope adapter. Great White Egret at ARC Dungeness. Also Bittern, 2 GN Divers, Lt Duck and a handful of new for me Caspian Gulls. (Thanks to the local birders for pointers on the latter).
