“This is my first time in India, it’s been mind-blowing. There’s a real sort of bubbling confidence and aspiration. It feels like this is India’s moment — and India knows it.” - Nobel Prize laureate David MacMillan at the Nobel Prize Dialogue India that took place earlier this

Thank you @TortosaLab for highlighting our work on the synthesis of mycapolyol E. @angew_chem @BristolChem @AggarwalLab

A Petasis-type addition of sp2 boron-based nucleophiles to vinyl epoxides. Both atoms of the double bond involved in stabilising the TS, explaining why only sp2 borons can participate in the reaction, like the Petasis. Great collaboration with @bobbypaton. @BristolChem @J_A_C_S

Fans of Corey–Chaykovsky reaction know ylides can stand in for carbenes in cyclopropanations. But can an ylide do C–C bond insertion first? We show the first example: methylene insertion into a C–C bond, then cyclopropanation/epoxidation: https://t.co/goYkq1GANY

Hard to find a more accurate, succinct summary of the Reform Party.

Whoever made this deserves an award!

Crikey. Alarming.

Israel planted explosives in a school for disabled children at dawn today in South Lebanon and blew it up. Not a military target. A school for disabled children — perhaps the only one in the country. In what universe is this considered “self-defense”? https://t.co/yu8CWWazfC

Banksy has been censored by the establishment. How they fail to see the irony in this is beyond parody.

Spain’s Prime Minister imposes a full embargo on Israel: “Bombing hospitals and starving innocent children is not self-defense.” “It is not even war.” “It is the extermination of a defenseless people, and the destruction of every principle of human rights.” 🇪🇸 🇵🇸

The British establishment have all ready covered this new Banksy up. Can we get it Retweeted 10,000 times to show that they can never cover up their complicity in war crimes?? Protect the right to protest! RT!

Breaking news; Here is the security camera footage from the Family vessel of the Sumud Flotilla, stationing just outside Tunis port. So: 1. Sound of something that the crew identified as a drone. 2. Crews sounds the alarm and calls for help. 3. Explosion. Draw your conclusions.

Right wing media has had it in for @AngelaRayner from the start - they couldn’t bear a working class woman being so powerful & dynamic. She made a mistake & has paid heavily for it. Hope she’ll return at some point in the future - our politics needs more voices like hers

In 2010 I travelled the entire country of Israel and I've been to Palestine and other parts of the West Bank. I had minimal experience with Middle Eastern politics when I arrived in the country. My mind was a clean slate. Our Israeli guide was cordial but it was clear to me

Congratulations to Malcolm George on completing a fantastic PhD, completing several complex molecules syntheses and developing methodology too. Your energy and resilience will be greatly missed. @BCS_CDT

Virtually everyone in a position of power in the media is intimidated by a highly organised pro Israel lobby. Here’s how it works. Every single day they make the calculation: “is telling the truth here worth it? Maybe tomorrow is a bigger story”.

To end the carnage in Gaza’s apocalyptic reality, states must ACT: break the siege, protect civilians, impose arms embargo+ sanctions. Meanwhile, the least I can do is amplify trusted voices on the ground. 👇

❗️BREAKING❗️Rescuers killed in line of duty. Scenes like this unfold every moment in Gaza, often unseen, largely undocumented. I beg STATES: how much more must be witnessed before you act to stop this carnage? 🔴Break the blockade 🔴Impose an Arms Embargo 🔴Impose Sanctions.
