The #TraitorsGate at the #TowerOfLondon, adorned with red #poppies during the 2014 #artInstallation 𝘉𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘚𝘸𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝘓𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘙𝘦𝘥, which commemorated the centenary of the outbreak of World War I. Each of the 888,246 ceramic red #poppies represented one British or Colonial serviceman killed in the Great War.
This year, a smaller installation of the original poppies was displayed until #ArmisticeDay last week. I had planned to share this #gate last #Doorsday but got sidetracked by that stunning Old World #doorway in Seattle I posted instead. 😅

Of course #exxon is losing money, because they're selling a product that makes people and the planet sick and that no-one needs: #fossilFuels! Let them go bust and help the workforce by finding other #jobs for them. #UK #PMQs

It has been a snowy and icy few days here in North Highland, so the brave drivers of the road gritters are out in force.
Each lorry has an excellent (and sometimes painful) gritty name and it is fun to check them out using the interactive map on Traffic Scotland's website: https://www.traffic.gov.scot/gritter-tracker

I’m so ashamed …
This week, the UK Home Secretary proposed shocking #asylum reforms that could seize the possessions and jewellery of people seeking #safety, cut off their support and tear apart #families who have built their lives here.
