'Utterly appalling': Criticism as UK announces it will cut aid to Yemen by more than half news.sky.com/story/utterly-…

So disappointing - Lords Amendment on genocide in Xinjiang defeated 300 to 318. Government ministers happy to make speeches about atrocities taking place on an industrial scale but - when it comes to it - refuse to take action. This appeasement of genocide shames our country

Sometimes, when Prince Harry says sensible things (eg this morning about parenting), it would be nice if journalists discussed what he said rather than whether he has pissed off the Royals or Meghan put him up to it

I just signed this petition telling Boris Johnson that we say no to new oil and gas licences and want a just transition for oil workers. Will you join me? act.gp/3iv6p4F

For #COP26 to succeed we need to see a complete fossil fuel phase-out in the final text and a commitment from wealthy nations to cough up the cash to support others Rt Hon Lord Alok Sharma Boris Johnson

The UK backs the target to protect 30% of the world's oceans by 2030, but this is almost impossible to achieve unless governments agree to a Global Ocean Treaty. James Cleverly🇬🇧 don't let the treaty talks fail.

We were on the Today prog on Saturday - talking about Meta's cynical, tone deaf move to change the Whatsapp age from 16 down to 13. 1h 48 minutes in. #smartphonefreechildhood bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Great news. The Online Safety Act doesn't go far enough to protect kids from the profit-driven algorithm. If social media can do this to adults, what on earth is it doing to our kids? #osa #smartphonefreechildhood theguardian.com/politics/artic…

I thought I understood teens and smartphones and social media. I also thought the problems were borderline insoluble. Read this and see how wrong I was. (Clue: none of the kids or parents could believe how EASY it was. And all of the kids thanked me) thetimes.com/article/1100fd…

Phones could be banned in Scottish schools under new guidance. Come on Keir Starmer, time to do the same. There is no place for smartphones in the school day - children deserve the chance to focus and learn. #smartphonefreeschools bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Experts say teenagers more at risk online than interrailing. Well done Kirstie Allsopp for giving your child an adventure. We are overprotecting in the real world whilst underprotecting online. Jonathan Haidt theguardian.com/society/articl…

I'm really looking forward to taking part in this webinar on Friday 13th Sept - where I'll be talking about #smartphonefreechildhood - our grassroots movement of more than 120k parents. We're on a mission to challenge Big Tech's colonisation of childhood. #humanchange

We have a growing understanding of how damaging phones & social media are on our children’s education. That’s why we believe that smartphones in schools should be banned during the day. This is the right thing for parents, teachers and children. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01/2…

The data is there - smartphones and schools don't mix. A child's school years are too precious to be squandered on a smartphone. Laura Trott MP Neil O'Brien #https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01/25/tories-force-labour-ban-damaging-smartphone-schools-england/
