  4. Went back to #UEA ‘s LCR for first time in over 25 years tonight to see the Divine Comedy…it was sweltering, but Gen X weren’t going to let that stop them going out out!

    Neil Hannon has barely aged…his band had, but they were still brilliant. Lots of bangers from the Casanova album…but also enough recognisable hits from intervening years.

    In the build up to a newish song Mar-a-Lago, Hannon made cocktails on stage for the whole band. There was a still dignity in the air despite the heat.

  5. Ĉi tiu afiŝo de @liberafolio instigas viglan disputon en Esperantujo. La rusia landa asocio de #UEA decidis krei regionan fakon en plia okupita teritorio de Ukrainio. Nun ĝi kreas regionan fakon ankaŭ en la tiel nomata ”Donecka Popola Respubliko”. liberafolio.org/2026/05/12/reu #Esperanto

  6. Working in #SocialHousing and #retrofit, I was delighted to be invited to attend this recent #ClimateMajority event concerning class and climate action at #UEA, #Norwich.

    There are many assumptions made about the intersection of these two issues…often negative.

    In my line of work I find those who have experienced the benefits of retrofit the greatest persuaders of others - this is true across spectrum

  7. Whats most worrying here is I'm fairly sure #UEA specialises in biological sciences, you would have thought the students would know this (and also how to identify the edible chestnuts, which you *can* eat)

  8. Of the 10 current #BRICS countries (2025), 3 are #democracies: #Brazil, #India, and #South #Africa. 7 are #authoritarian or #hybrid regimes: #Russia, #China, #Egypt, #Ethiopia, #Iran, #Saudi #Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (#UEA). In short: Only 3 out of 10 are full democracies. The group is therefore mostly #authoritarian or #semi-democratic.

    As a #Brazilian I am #ashamed to be part of this group!

  9. The problem with the #Israel government shouting #Antisemitism at everything they don't like, is that when the real thing comes along, it can go unnoticed. Sadly, many #Palestine supporters and other #left folk dismiss any charge of antisemitism rather than engaging with the problem.

    Accusing #Netanyahu of committing #war crimes is not antisemitic. However, the events targeting the Jewish community in #UEA over the past year were clearly antisemitic, and culminated this week in the abduction and murder of a young rabbi.

  10. Evening sunset walk at #UEA campus #Norwich…just what I needed after a busy long week.

  11. So tonight I went to the #Norwich South hustings at #UEA.

    Sadly Clive Lewis, current #Labour MP was a no show…they sent the local Labour councillor instead, who struggled to get from one end of a sentence to the other.

    #Green Party candidate Jamie Osborn was very strong and well received…particularly on rent reforms, #Trans and #Non-binary rights and #Retrofit.

    The #LibDem Sean Bennett was really solid and did well on #NHS and #EU…but crowd not receptive.

    So what about Tory and Reform…

  12. Mi tre ŝatas la bildon elektita de UEA por imagi la venontan universalan esperantan kongreson, kiu okazos somere en Aruŝo, Tanzanio.
    (Estos la unua universala kongreso okazonto en la afrika kontinento)

  13. Es gibt ja die #TEJO, die weltweite Jugendorganisation der #UEA. Hier ein Video wie sie am Europäischen Jugendevent EYE teilnehmen: youtube.com/watch?v=0_gWiovnN1 #Esperanto #EU #europe

  14. @JugglingWithEggs And don't forget the #UEA's Climatic Research Unit's exemplary work on this very issue

  15. A (Nuclear) Blast From The Past

    shkspr.mobi/blog/2000/10/a-nuc

    As I was digging around some ancient back-up CDs, I happened across some of my early web pages. Way back in the mists of time, I was a member of the UEA Peace Society. As well as organising talk on campus, we occasionally went on protests. This page records the protest we took to Lakenheath - a local US military encampment.
    As far as I can tell, this was part of the Citizens' Weapons Inspection project.
    So, here it is, in all its unedited glory. I wonder where you all are now?

    Protest at Lakenheath USAF 01 October 2000

    On Sunday the 1st of October 2000, a group comprising of East Anglian CND members and UEA Peacesoc-ers (and a few of their friends) went to protest the Lakenheath Airbase which currently holds over 30 LIVE nuclear weapons.

    We held a silent vigil outside the base, let incoming and outgoing base members see our demonstration and heard several talks about NATO and its contempt for international law and well-being.

    Oh, and it stayed sunny, which was nice.

    Here is my photo diary of the day.

    Kate poses for the camera; Peace Man! It may interest you to know that this poster was held together with a mixture of gaffer-tape and chewing gum. Mmmm - minty fresh.

    Kermit takes time out from his Tai Chi to look suitably puzzled by the proceedings.

    This rather nice Policeman decided to film us (Hurrah! We're going to be movie stars, Ma!). So, I decided to repay the favour and imortalise him. And, yes, I did ask his permission.

    Ahhh! What a lovely day for a protest.

    Kathryn looked skeptical about the plans to attack the police with olives. How wrong she was!

    As you can see - the base is protected by legislation dating back to 1842. If it was good enough for Victorian England, it's good enough for our Nukes!

    Part of our road protest outside the base. A surprising number of motorists honked us in support, thanks guys.

    And, after discussing our next move - we decided to go home!

    Yes, well, that's it. Not much more to write. Thanks to everyone who showed up, to Kermit for the olives, Kate for chewing, Davina for smiling so much, Sue for driving, the Police for being nice and friendly, and Love and Hugs to anyone I forgot.

    All we are saying is;

    GIVE PEACE A CHANCE
