The Progress in International Reading Literacy Study found that 81% of Grade 4 pupils in SA can't read for meaning. This implies that 8 out of 10 children need help to locate and retrieve information in easy text. Nic Spaull unpacks this. Watch: bit.ly/3o6gMma

In the Bronx, when we made our public hospital the response center to violent crimes instead of jails and precincts, reoccurrence of crime fell dramatically. As leaders, we should focus on solutions that are working instead of what helps us look “tough.”

I had some Belgian admin to do today. I received my police clearance certificate via email within 4 HOURS of requesting it. I received a follow-up email to a request for my birth certificate within 7 MINUTES of requesting it. Administrations can be efficient. Why not in 🇿🇦?

Andre De Ruyter at #TheGathering2022: "The 2 great advantages of solar and wind is that it they can't be stolen and can't be exported to China to be exploited there." 😂😊 @dailymaverick


Oh so unimpressed by my first experience with @getsmarter - I enrolled for a course by @iangoldmansa and @SChapmanEval 2 weeks ago, processed payment last week and followed up numerous times to access the course. Last email received from them was 8 days ago. Since then, silence.


10 minutes into the first @FIFAWorldCup game yesterday and my 9-year old daughter asks: Why are there no women on the pitch? That started a whole conversation... #sportsandgender #equality #youngfeminist

1. Be better and smarter when spending state resources. 2. Focus on building relationships, our challenges are too complex to be the cause or the solution of one Department or individual only.

So what are we hoping for? Increased resources for NPA? Implementation of some of the policy, procurement and transparency recommendations? Whistleblower protections? Standing down of named officials and ministers (lol!)? … what do WE want?

Why, when and how men rape: A study in South Africa among men aged 18-49 finds 27.6% have raped a woman. Most were motivated by sexual entitlement, also boredom & ‘entertainment’, & as punishment against girlfriends and other women. Most had first raped girls/women as teenagers.

Hello @lufthansa - I'm still waiting to hear from your team regarding a claim following a missed connecting flight 10 weeks ago. I am regularly following up but have never received an email, not even acknowledging receipt. Is this standard Lufthansa #CustomerService?

A thread on this: The first thing to say, first and foremost 1 murder is 1 murder too many and a strategic aim to reduce this most harmful of crimes cannot be a bad thing. 🧵 ⬇️

Tackling murder can't ever be the sole responsibility of the police. If the Home Secretary is serious about this ambition, she should be convening police, probation, mental health, emergency medicine & other services, developing a cross-government approach independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
