I’ve been lucky enough to swim with sharks, sail across oceans, and dive into the deep blue. Every experience has left me more in awe of the ocean - and more determined to protect it. This #WorldOceanDay, I’m proud to support the new VI Purpose Fund with Unite BVI – backing

Most people are fundamentally kind, decent and want to do good in the world. When some people get into positions of power, this instinct can sometimes get lost. But kindness is strength. And humanity is remarkably resilient:

A new report from @hrw spotlights the widespread discrimination and violence unleashed upon #LGBTQ+ people since #Uganda enacted the world’s harshest anti-gay laws two years ago. You should never be outlawed or abused for loving who you love:

(3/3) No doubt, we’ll miss Ban Ki-moon dearly, but we’ll still lean on him for advice and guidance in the years to come: @TheElders.

(2/3) And true to his brilliant and reflective mind, he has left us with some incredibly important and personal parting words – a heartfelt plea for a renewed multilateral world order in the spirit of the UN Charter, delivering for everyone, but especially the most vulnerable.

(1/3) @TheElders never fail to inspire all of us with their moral courage and leadership. Former @UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who is now stepping down as Deputy Chair after eight years with this wonderful collective, really embodies the best of what The Elders stand for.

(6/6) What a terrible legacy for Vladimir Putin to leave. And what an awful burden for ordinary Russians to bear for years to come, knowing that many don’t share their leader’s sinister vision:

(5/6) Their contemporary brothers and sisters in arms know neither what they are fighting for, nor what they are fighting against. They are pawns in a cynical and personal power play, dying en masse as their ruler isolates himself and his country from the civilised world.

(4/6) Russian veterans of World War II, some still alive, must be aghast at what they have been seeing for the last three years. Whilst fighting under the rule of a ruthless dictator themselves, at least they knew that defeating fascism was a worthwhile mission.

(3/6) It strikes me as the ultimate sign of Putin’s selfishness and hypocrisy to celebrate the end of a war of aggression whilst at the same time pursuing another war of aggression that shows all the signs of a land grab – including countless well-documented war crimes and.

(2/6) And yet, this year’s celebrations in Moscow’s Red Square will forever be tainted, as long as Russian troops continue their relentless attack on neighbouring #Ukraine. As I’m writing this, air raids and drone attacks on civilian targets in Kyiv and other cities carry on, up.

(1/6) Victory Day, or VE day, is commemorated across Europe this week as a day of liberation and victory over the muderous Nazi regime. In #Russia, this is a day of particular importance, as no country had suffered greater losses during World War II, following Hitler’s unprovoked.

For the Virgin Hotels London-Shoreditch opening party, I rolled up in style, chauffeured by none other than a @wayve_ai self-driving car. I don’t think I’ve said wow this much since being in space. Watch the full ride here:.
