Backed by 160 organisations & echoing a key Covid-19 Inquiry recommendation, this is a vital step to ensure children’s rights are considered in decision-making. Read the briefing: 🔗 bit.ly/4akFft8

- Today is World Children’s Day. Not generally a fan of “days” but this is an important one because it reminds us of the Rights that children should be experiencing EVERY day of the year and how much we still have to do. Happy Children’s Day one and all. 🎉

- So many reasons to be excited about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social winning. It should surprise no-one that he’s an Arsenal supporter. All the best people are. 😉 #COYG

- Not sure why this only got 4 stars. Jayne Mansfield is not someone I’ve paid much attention to and this documentary is less about her life and more about what she left behind with a few surprise. Such a gentle and loving tribute. 2 hankies were used. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
- This is shameful. It is not cultural expression nor is it legitimate commentary. Surely it is a hate crime.

- Lewis Capaldi was simply amazing as was the reaction to his return to the Glastonbury stage. An example to us all of the kindness and empathy that we should always show people who are struggling or have life long-long disabilities or illness.

- If accurate this is so disappointing. The NI anti-poverty strategy must have actions that actually reduce family and child poverty not simply regurgitate existing actions. Stormont strategy to tackle poverty 'not fit for purpose,' says Barnardos NI www.bbc.com/news/article...
