It s remarkable just how many people around #starmer spent time at the #Resolutionfoundation - officially non-partisan and with a #conservative former minister - #davidwilletts - as its chair. #torstenbell , #minoucheshafik , #vidhyaalakeson are obvious examples but I must confess to having encountered #rachelreeves at a meeting organised by it a few years back. My impression was that they were particularly concerned at working age poverty and ready to increase tax if necessary!

The #UK Foreign Secretary's newly appointed adviser, #MinoucheShafik, an esteemed economist, has recently praised the Welsh Government for its progressive approach to climate change. This commendation comes at a time when Minouche Shafik herself is embroiled in a controversy regarding academic integrity, as highlighted by US economics professor #HwanCLin.

UK Foreign Secretary’s New Adviser Lauds Welsh Climate Policy Amidst Controversy Over Academic Integrity ｜Eat News - Exclusive, World News, Opinion

As Typhoon Gaemi rapidly intensifies and barrels towards Taiwan, the island nation is bracing for impact with emergency measures and market closures. The typhoon, currently classified as a medium strength typhoon by Taiwan's Central Weather Administration, is expected to make landfall on the northeast coast between the night of July 24 and the early hours of July 25, before moving across the Taiwan Strait and hitting southeastern China.

According to #DemocracyNow, the response from #JewishVoiceForPeace:

'The students of #Columbia will never forget the sheer violence unleashed upon us by Minouche Shafik, and we will not be placated by her removal as the university's repression of the pro-Palestinian student movement continues '

Shafiková, která byla do čela newyorské univerzity jmenována teprve loni, v rezignačním dopise uvedla, že se za tu dobu podařilo dosáhnout "pokroku v mnoha oblastech". "Bylo to však také období zmatku, kdy bylo obtížné překonat rozdíly v názorech v naší komunitě."

Proč podle vás studenti neprotestují i v době, kdy jsou prázdniny?

I had forgotten she is the Baroness Shafik, of Camden in the London Borough of Camden and of Alexandria in the Arab Republic of Egypt.

The Columbia president #MinoucheShafik's reputation is toast. End of the road for her.

This is a clear warning by the DOE to other university presidents to remain even handed.

Manifestations pro-palestiniennes : haro sur Minouche Shafik, la présidente de l'université Columbia

La présidente de l'université Columbia, Minouche Shafik, fait face à d’intenses pressions alors que son campus est au centre du mouvement de manifestations pour dénoncer la réponse militaire israélienne à Gaza. Un test pour cette femme au parcours sans faute jusqu'à présent.

Illegal evictions, harassment of Palestinians and pro-Palestinian Jews on campus, NYPD oinkers 🐷 🤡 🐷 🤡 and their violence on campus at the behest of #ColumbiaUniversity's shitty president #MinoucheShafik who pretends to care about the safety of the people on campus! Shafik! What a knobhead!

I, for one, am shocked that The Baroness Shafik sided with the powerful against the Palestinians being exterminated by Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the West Bank.
