A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you. 3/4

👉NEW -- 'Lodged in skulls': The army's deadly plastic bullets scandal By Anne Cadwallader #truth #justice #humanrights The military knew metal end-caps fitted to plastic bullets could remain attached on firing, potentially ‘lodging in the skulls’ of anyone they hit in N. Ireland declassifieduk.org/lodged-in-skul…

Tony Benn getting it exactly right as Tony Blair took the UK into an illegal war 20 years ago. A war for which the world - and the Iraqis in particular - are still paying the price.

Great cartoon by Denis Lushch. (Can't find him on Twitter or I'd credit him!)

Ah... it took a while. #ElonMusk has stolen my blue tick - along with almost everyone else's. I think he thought he could use them to fuel his rocket. That worked.

My son posted this film he just made today in Washington at a climate protest.

Is Elon Musk playing divide and rule by leaving some people with blue ticks or are those just people shameless enough to have paid for them? Clue: if you’ve got one, that’s what we all suspect!

Please watch shorter #NoFireZone video once more. #Tamils have to redouble efforts to achieve justice for #Tamilgenocide, refer #SriLanka to #ICC &determine our future through #referendum. Let us re-dedicate ourselves in the week of #Genocide Remembrance. youtu.be/FMvg0viGPa0

This photo he sent to me some days before he died - almost knowing it might be for his obituary &when he was executed on 18 May I sent it on to journalists. Always smiling but I remember being shocked at how much weight he’d lost. 14 years & no justice still - I am sorry Pulee.

A dark day for freedom of the press, for everyone who cares about it and for every journalist & news organisation that believes in public interest reporting. A statement:

Lihini Weerasinghe 🇱🇰 M A Sumanthiran Lihini & others who didn't know what happened towards 'end of war', I'm saddened to read this. hv u seen the Award-win documentary, #NoFireZone, now avail in Sinhala: h/t Callum Macrae ?? if useful RETWEET it? x.com/Callum_Macrae/…

The photo I'll use to show my Grandkids I did everything I could.

In this article Ryanair deny making people pay an extra fee to avoid a middle seat and giving them a middle seat if they don't pay it. They just did exactly that to me. What are these people on? It takes a lot to make Elon Musk look reasonable! Pls RT! independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

A Palestinian journalist, someone I've known for many years, wrote on my FB wall that he'd covered six wars in Gaza and "this one is the worst, the bloodiest and no rules." As you can see in this devastating report.

I gave up posting after Musk took twitter over, but as someone who's made many films for Al Jazeera English I have to re-post this: The terrible cost being paid by astonishingly brave AJ journalists consistently providing the best, most accurate reporting of the massacre in Gaza
