Last night, by Russian Embassy in Riga, Latvia. People singing 🇺🇦 national anthem. Inspiring, important. If like me you’ve been feeling angry yet powerless, here’s something we can all do. Bravo 🇱🇻 Bravo 🎵 for justice. #FreeUkraine | lyrics+music 👉: youtu.be/xDeQVaoTvJM

Dear @Meta - an AI tool has appeared on my WhatsApp. I asked it how to turn it off (I don’t need AI support with my messages) -& it helpfully gave instructions. Which didn’t work. Please can you help where your AI couldn’t. How can a WhatsApp user turn the AI off? Thank you

Why do all decent people stand by Ukraine today? Why do free nations today pay a tribute to the heroes and victims of this inhuman war? Because this is a war in defense of us all: Ukraine, Poland, Europe and our values. Let no-one try to question the very sense of this fight.

This is brilliant and I feels like an emblem for a good future in #UK. Celebrating both unity and healthy rivalry
Scenes at Edgbaston where India are playing Pakistan but people are watching the England game. 2 sets of rival supporters united by their love of England! #PakvsInd #ENGSUI #comeonengland #england

Thank you delegates. Met some great people. And thank you @BMJLeader - it looked like some of the next generation of healthcare leaders. And thanks to Molly Coogan for organising the day and @DrAoifeMolloy and @mountfordjames for giving me constant encouragement.
What does @rogerkline say? 👇🏼 "Leaders must own status & hierarchy" 😎✨️ @BMJLeader

A further graphic that makes the powerful point that we have to think differently about "failure" if we want to build psychological safety for high performance in our teams & organisations. It's inspired by @AmyCEdmondson. The ideas are further developed in her latest book "Right kind of wrong". Graphic by @Adrien_Liard via @TheQI_Guy.

The Channel Tunnel made travel between the UK and le continent on dry land possible. We take for granted now jumping on the Eurostar or putting our car on the Eurotunnel shuttle. But it was a visionary 🇬🇧🇫🇷 project and an extraordinary feat of engineering. What’s the next one?
Today marks 30 years since the Channel Tunnel was opened on 6 May 1994. From the signing of the treaty in 1986 to the inauguration by Queen Elizabeth II & President Mitterrand, we celebrate this great 🇫🇷 🇬🇧 achievement that has contributed so much to our 2 countries' closer ties.

Wisdom and goodness here 👇from AAMilne
"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh. There was a pause. "Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet. "No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do." "That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend. "What are you doing?" asked Pooh. "Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either. "But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh." And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right." A.A. Milne #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek 🧡

A quirk of geography means that the UK is blessed with most of the world’s chalk stream. Where are the chalk streams? A brilliant article from @NationalGeoRP shows us exactly. We have spent the last 200 years taming and abusing them. And they are in a dire state. Now is the time to act! Featuring @PJennings88. These are so incredibly precious and need all the protection we can give them! @Feargal_Sharkey @jaowallace @Petex70
