If you would like to add your voice to tens of thousands of people thanking RNLI volunteers for their work, 38 Degrees have organised this open letter to express public support (at a time when a hateful fringe have been intimidating & abusing RNLI volunteers) act.38degrees.org.uk/act/rnli-tha...

An open letter in support of the volunteers and staff at the RNLI

This is a disgrace. Brave RNLI volunteers being called scum for risking their lives to save others at sea is just plain wrong. So I've signed an open letter of thanks for the RNLI letting them know th...

It’s a sad indictment of Britain’s ignorance of nature that Sycamore Gap petitions - for a tree that mattered to humans but not nature - received tens of thousands of signatures but a petition to protect entire peatland habitats is stuck at 1,500 actnow.peatfreepartnership.org.uk/end-peat-sal...

Sign the petition to end peat sales!

No more delays: Let's get peat out of gardens once and for all. The time for uncertainty has ended.

I was delighted today to open our #UoEPGDEp conference event 'Including All' at @morayhouse.bsky.social Huge thanks to @kdarlingmcq.bsky.social for making this happen and to our amazing student cohort for their curious and courageous participation

Our #UoEPGDEp IncludingAll mini-conference has started. @drsuechapman.bsky.social began with a clear opening message about belonging and mattering. @kdarlingmcq.bsky.social now asks questions about the ethics of care and the relational nature of teaching.Important and grounding messages for us all.

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh… Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population) Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK Immigration isn’t draining us Inequality is.

Noel and Liam Gallagher’s brother charged with rape and threats to kill. I bet there’s going to be a massive riot at the next Oasis gig, right? Wrong, because: 1. He’s white. 2. Oasis aren’t responsible for his actions. Just like an entire asylum hotel is not responsible for one offender…

Wondering if anyone has looked at the impact on that AI generated transcriptions have on the quality and nature of transcriptions (even when then refined by a human)? I’m in the process of doing just that. AI has removed all the humanness - the ‘ems’, ‘uh-uhs’ + silences. Feels odd and a bit icky 🫤🥴
