Thursday quote: “Everyone enjoys a fitting reply; it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time!” Proverbs 15:23 (NLT)

Good to have the Peace Museum finally open at Salts

My take on the triumph of the far right in East Germany, and why far right extremists winning a state election is a dangerous first with far reaching ramifications well beyond Berlin. 👇👇

Germany’s far right will govern from the sidelines

Moderate parties will refuse to form a coalition with the AfD after its success in Thuringia and Saxony. But that doesn’t mean the political centre is equipped to resist it

All looks very chilled but where’s the book? Autumnal morning here

Short film on HnH’s “Hold on to Hope” campaign. “We invite everyone to join in fostering positive change and addressing the challenges our country faces. Together, we can ensure that hope triumphs over hate and build a better future for all.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkM5...

Reuniting the UK begins with a commitment to tackle hate with hope.

Nice tribute here to Maggie Henton - always a pleasure to see her work and we were fortunate to acquire some pieces for the collection at Bankfield. She’ll be missed. search.app/MTycWjSBjtoN...

Thursday quote: “Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves…Live the questions now…live along some distant day into the answer.” Rainer Maria Rilke (Rilke on Love and Other Difficulties, John Mood, ed. Norton, 1994 p3.)
