Cultural treasures are being destroyed worldwide - so why is no-one being punished?
A cauldron of conflicts is bubbling across the world, with cultural monuments being destroyed. These people are fighting against it.

Portsmouth plays a large part in the story of the Mary Rose - she was built here, she sank defending Portsmouth from invasion in 1545 and, upon her return to the surface in 1982, this was where she made her new home. That's why we're backing Portsmouth’s bid to become UK City of Culture 2029!

#OnThisDay. 19th July 1545, The Mary Rose sank during the Battle of the Solent, just a few miles from the coast of Portsmouth. Of her 500 crew, only around 30-40 were saved. The Mary Rose Museum is dedicated to those who lost their lives that day. 🖼️ Geoff Hunt PPRSMA

When President Zelensky is next in the company of Trump or Vance - why not ask them how they’d feel if Putin’s troops crossed the Bering Sea & invaded the USA? It’s only about 12 miles, so perfectly possible. Maybe, only maybe, only then might they begin to understand how ‘being invaded’ feels!

I was introduced to this poem recently: Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; 1/3

You've heard of Boudica - the warrior Queen in Britain who led a revolt against the Romans. Well, she probably wasn't alone. DNA analysis of another tribe shows that it was built along women's blood lines - with daughters inheriting land and wealth. My story here - www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
