We spent a week in the Occupied West Bank: We saw bloody settler attacks, Palestinian homes demolished & tense interactions with Israeli soldiers Here's a short clip ⬇️ Including our attempt to reach a Palestinian family besieged by "hilltop youth" settlers - before we were violently stopped With @MillyTeasdale @MackesonPaul Ayman Abu Ramouz & Nava Mizrahi

Why didn't you cover the launch of the Samsung Fold during any of its 8 launches since 2019? #BBCPM ? .. Blowing-off Apple is blatant one-sided advertising. Oh, and Katie, m8, it's a fold, not a "flip" 🙄

Having a train that takes you directly to the airport is genuinely one of the top 10 things a city can offer. No expensive taxis, no sitting in traffic, no begging someone to drop you off. Just get on the train and arrive at the airport. Every major city should have this.

Edinburgh Airport last night. Passengers from 3 flights bussed to, and then herded through a narrow entrance to climb a staircase, to then descend another in order to join a massive queue at passport control! It's a dreadful experience, which feels almost third world, and a terrible welcome to our capital City. And who owns Edinburgh Airport? The highly profitable Vinci Airports (French) and Blackrock! The great arguments for privatisation included modernising and responding better to customer demands, but what we've ended up with in Edinburgh is fat cat profit over national pride.

According to the @reformparty_uk Racist just on Swarbrick's show - Jaymey McIvor - the last time everything properly worked in London was in the year 2000 .. when the Charlatan was a mere - two - years - old! Shame Swarbrick gave the Farage bootlicker an easy ride. #LBC

China opens four new high-speed rail lines in the same day today. The world's largest HSR network keeps growing bigger. 1. Xiongan <-> Shangqiu: 552 km 2. Yichang <-> Xingshan: 101 km 3. Xi'an <-> Ankang: 171 km 4. Harbin <-> Yichun: 318 km

Deliberately handicapping the driver who was merely 30–40 points off the championship leader in the standings in favour of a driver who will never win the championship is precisely why this team will go on to win nothing in this century.

Just today in Scotland: 📈 Highest child death rate in the UK 📈11% increase in drug deaths Yet the SNP choose to spend more of the Scottish Parliament’s time debating independence. Distracted and out of touch.

We are still figuring out how to get past Solihull.
China's next-gen 400 km/h CR450 high-speed trains have finished the mandatory 600,000 km pre-service trial, equal to 15 trips around Earth's equator. Under Chinese rules, all-new HSR trains must pass this test and every performance criterion before carrying passengers.

Please don’t forward this to @MBrundleF1 Martin knows the F1 entertainment first rules better than anyone, and to him it was not Leclerc’s fault. Just look at how he narrated the Abu Dhabi Scandal in 2021. Instead of pointing out the rules or what was actually happening, he was selling the audience an impossible entertainment first narrative to help legitimize a robbed WDC they gifted to Max. 🤡 #F1 #LewisHamilton
Charles Leclerc admits he went "too far" in his battle with teammate Lewis Hamilton in Monza ⚔️
