I have never moved on from this moment. This child, begging for life and protection, says "we want to shout and judge the the killers of children." I judge the killers of children. I will never forgive the killers of children and their comfortable apologists.
Kids in Gaza hosting a press conference, in English, to beg the world for life. “We come now to shout and invite you to protect us; we want to live, we want peace…we want to live as the other children live.” Over 4200 kids, like these, have been killed.

Let’s hope the new Water Regulator proposed comes with a huge injection of cash. Environment Agency monitoring programmes (which are slated to move the a new organisation) are now around half the size they were in 2010 due to relentless budget cuts. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
