My article on party financing in Africa is out! I study challenges faced by opposition parties in financing elections. Democracy costs $. When parties do not have $ they are likely going to lose. Download, read, critic, assign cambridge.org/core/journals/…
.@JanKEliasson is exactly right. If you want to ease starvation of children in Gaza, no need for air drops. The solution is simple: Let the UN and NGOs truck food across the border (and stop shooting desperate civilians trying to get food for their families).
Dropping food from the air in Gaza is an ineffective sideshow. During my time as UN relief chief we had to stop such aid. Minimal amounts were delivered and chaos and accidents occurred on the ground. All entries into Gaza have to be opened and distribution handed back to UN.
If our Government in Zimbabwe don't see anything wrong with the number of Zimbabweans in the UK haa hameno. Imagine the brain drain that's been happening. Imagine many other Zimbabweans in Europe and America and everywhere else. ZanuPf ma1 guys

Elder Dr Tagwirei was conferred with an Honorary Doctorate in Business and Strategic Management by Babcock University in Nigeria. The University is a private, Christian co-educational institution owned and operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Nigeria.
My siblngs and I together in the same place at the same time as adults in over 20 years.

Scotland is beautiful. The green ❤️❤️❤️drove to Fort Williams. Worth every bit of the 3 mile ride. It’s a shame the children’s author turned out not to be so nice.
Did mature leader field candidates in today’s by-elections?
Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma schools chief who wants bibles in the classroom and Christianity taught to kids, just got caught watching adult content. On his work computer. During a Board of Education meeting. Read that again. friendlyatheist.com/p/ryan-walters…
Israel says a 10-hour “tactical pause in military activity” in 3 areas of Gaza is now underway as international outrage grows over starvation
And, they have just captured some lifetime supporters.
♦️In Pictures♦️ The EFF ensured that children were not left out at the #EFFTurns12 Rally today, with dedicated spaces and activities that catered to their needs. It was a celebration for the whole family, rooted in love, joy, and community.
Social media has really allowed us to be mean and bullies. If she’s online she will see this. Then what?
My coworker has been bragging about her husband’s potato salad and she brought some in to share - it has potatoes, tuna, eggs, and mayo. No seasonings. It’s like something you would give a Komodo dragon on its birthday.
Aid organizations report that thousands of children in Gaza are at risk of starvation while trucks full of food sit waiting across the border. The full flow of humanitarian assistance must be restored immediately. news.un.org/en/story/2025/…
If you’re going to talk about famine & starvation, you need to talk about Sudan. Since August 2024, many regions have been declared in Phase 5, the HIGHEST level of food insecurity. A year of the WORST famine the world has seen in 40 years & no real uproar from the world.
'Irregardless' is a word.
Hit me with the harshest reality truth.
Functioning public transport systems are incredible. I didn’t expect to like Belgium as much as I did given their country’s terrible history of colonialism and racism. I was a little scared to be quite honest. Both Antwerp and Brugge were fun places to visit.
Rep. Capriglioni allegedly had an affair with an exotic dancer, paid for abortions, and fantasized about ejaculating in cookie batter for his daughter's bake sale. 🤯 texastribune.org/2025/07/25/gio…
Agreed, My mom and friends even have those big big pots, thousand plates, cups, etc, for when someone needs them instead of hiring out.... I never understood why it was so important to visit a grieving friend until I needed people around me and my mom's community showed up.
I am always in awe of our parents and grandparents, especially women. They know how to show support to their friends, neighbors, colleagues (work mates), relatives, and churchmates when death occurs in the family. They travel even to rural areas to offer support, and some…
221 MPs, from 9 parties, have sent a joint letter to the Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary urging them to recognise Palestine as a state now
Was he drunk? He seemed much more interesting when he was an enigma. Did we ask for this terrible front row access?
Tagwirei’s gesture wasn’t affection it was theatre. Power by osmosis is not leadership. What we witnessed wasn’t strength, but the insecurity of a man performing relevance.
