    This is excellent news - and a great first step in understanding the sustainability challenge for the HE sector. @RoyalSocEd - an important step from @uni_scot and @ScotGovEdu - important that it has cross-party support in the Scottish Parliament ahead of the Holyrood elections

    The events at Bondi beach are an appalling act against the Jewish community at a precious moment in the Jewish calendar. Such acts are despicable at any time but ever more so at this moment. I express my sympathy and solidarity to the Jewish community at this time.
