An incredible step towards a better death for some of us and (for many more of us) a better life, without the existential dread many feel about their own suffering and the suffering of their loved ones.

More expensive public transport and continuing tax relief for car journeys. Meanwhile Spain is underwater. Unfathomable. #Budget2024.

I’m a guest on @BBCFreeThinking tonight at 9. We’re talking about childhood and innocence and I’ll hopefully get the chance to say something about what wonderful philosophers children can be. Can I say only sensible things for a whole hour? Let’s find out.

Read my responses to the @oracycommission Would love to hear your thoughts @voice21oracy and @OracyCambridge @makethinkingfun @PageTopsy @Phillipson70.
The @oracycommission has published its report: ‘We need to talk’. Read SAPERE's response and if you've seen first-hand the power of #P4C, please share.

A great endorsement of #P4C by @DanielKebedeNEU Philosophical dialogue is a powerful antidote to the division and confusion sown by the crisis in the Middle East.
“I think we should embed philosophy for children across the curriculum…. It’s a dialogic approach that allows children to form their own opinions and come to a clearer understanding themselves of the world around then.” says .@DanielKebedeNEU @guardian

And thanks to everyone who donated. We know there are so many requests for donations right now, and that some charities save lives. But we believe @SAPERE_P4C that our work it vital. We may not save lives, but do really do examine them! . #WonderWander2024

Thanks so much to everyone who donated questions about consciousness, pregnancy, superheroes, meaning, war, space, absurdity, love, comedy, art, god, lies, determinism, morality and holidays. We talked about them all. And we laughed a lot. #WonderWander2024

We have wondered, we have wandered, and we have raised almost £3K to fund philosophy clubs in schools, so young people can connect with others, enjoy learning and resist polarisation, misinformation and hate.@SAPERE_P4C . #WonderWander2024
