What a wonderful test match! But such graceless captainship! I just don't understand why Kohli has to be so ugly even in victory. Taunting the fans ... how low will this man fall! What a shame.

380 Afghans who worked for South Korean government in Afghanistan given 'People of Merit' and not 'Refugee' visas. Best practice inspiration for all @dfat @minbuza @FCDOGovUK @EU_Commission @Refugees #AfghanLivesMatter
380 Afghans who worked for the Korean government in Afghanistan will arrive in South Korea tomorrow according to MOFA. They will not be entering as refugees, but as people of merit to the country says the Foreign Ministry.

On @abcnews just now .. Australia has been rejecting humanitarian visa applications of ADF translators! More than ever this is the time to show leadership and to do the right thing! @ScottMorrisonMP @PeterDutton_MP #AfghanLivesMatter
Our failure to stand by and rescue who stood by us is indeed “heartbreaking incompetence”. Why just 3 .. why can't we send 30 flights and do the right thing?

This is the message that counts! The best vaccine is the one you can get today. The lesson from NSW is clear, the sooner one can get vaccinated the better.
That means the advice of the Chief Health Officer - that the best vaccine you can get is the one you can get today - is truer than ever. We've got plenty of Astra Zeneca and Victorians between 18 and 59 can choose to get that vaccine if you want to get vaccinated sooner.

We compete aggressively in so many spheres of life ... but nowhere is it okay to be abusive and ugly! Why should it be okay in sport? The means don't justify the ends .. this is just not Cricket!

Shouldn't we expect more from these social media companies? Why are we okay with simply asking Facebook to spread a little less of the misinformation?

High time we had a fair global taxation regime to tax multinational firms. We are almost there!

We are almost there with a Global Consensus Framework to Tax Multinational Firms. Everyone should pay their fair share of taxes, and all countries should get their fair share of these revenues. Kudos to @OECD - now fast track implementation.

Stuart Turville's story is a compelling reminder of the importance of sustained investment in science and research! This pandemic highlights the perils of short-sighted policy choices globally. @ScottMorrisonMP @BorisJohnson @WHO @UKRI_News

Just had a wonderful takeaway meal! And then read this sobering study. Plastic waste from takeaway packaging is non-biodgradeable; it is the biggest contribiutor to ocean plastic. We all need to pitch-in and change the way we get our takeaway food.

Not as sudden as the covid pandemic, but the slow rolling climate crisis is definitely as serious. This compelling analysis shows the many interacting tipping points in the global climate crisis.
