What a great event on Skye at the Feel Heal Real Food ReRoot day. We had excellent food from John Coghill with a @rowett_abdn twist, talks, activities and great conversations. We will be back. First photo was before everyone arrived and I started talking for five hours flat!
Serving up our @rowett_abdn science alongside all our favourite topics in some delicious dishes created by John Coghill @3_Chimneys…. hemp, buckwheat, wild garlic, nettles, dandelion and much more. #FeelHealRealFood #Skye

If you aren't angry, you aren't paying attention. A woman was murdered by ICE in Minneapolis today. This should outrage us all. ICE out of our cities now.

Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov was murdered on this day 10 years ago. Watch his 2014 speech predicting the results of Putin’s aggression against Ukraine.

It really is quite frightening how the US far right is just making up stuff. How many political prisoners have died in custody in the UK in the past ten years compared with those in Russia (and Europe in terms of assassinations)? I think the UK figures you could count on one hand
