Makes me so sad to see a little kid in
#Istanbul dropping his empty yoghurt pot on the pavement when he finished it, then looking sheepish as I bark “burası çöp değil”. The culture of chucking rubbish on the ground ruins this magnificent city. Educate kids about the environment.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -

Achingly proud of my (objectively speaking) brilliant brother. Even though my 8-year-old memories of screaming rows as we played Monopoly dispute the claim that he's "always calm". Congrats to the whole

1 month today since Jamal
#Khashoggi took these steps into the#Saudi consulate and towards his death. Still no admission of who ordered the odious killing. Still the promise of a tough line from western governments - but no sign. And still Crown Prince#MBS looks safe in power.pic.twitter.com/FLKBSe8Xz7Thanks.

Beautiful, sad piece by

What actually happened:
#US hit#Turkey with tariffs and sanctions as#Trump lost patience over the detention of Andrew Brunson and found an issue that rallied his evangelical base. That sank the lira, eventually forcing Turkey to release the pastor & the lira recovered. The end.https://twitter.com/dailysabah/status/1057339511443808257 …Thanks.

Either this is how it'll remain...or it allows the airport to be given the name of a certain leader in the future. Let's see. Either way, it avoids what could have been yet another source of division and polarisation in a country that really doesn't need any more.

Well that genuinely is a surprise. New airport to be called “Istanbul Airport”. Not Erdogan, not Abdulhamit II, as rumoured. Just the city, plain and simple. And what a city it is. Ataturk airport will remain but downsized so the father of the nation gives way for his replacement

#Istanbul new airport inaugurated today in a 'soft opening'. Why wasn't it postponed until ready, with metro connection, workers that weren't pushed to death and a site that doesn't look like a wasteland? Would anyone have complained if the project was given the necessary time?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo - Mark Lowen Retweeted
Jair
#Bolsonaro - a candidate who’d wish his son dead rather than gay, advocated the killing of 30,000 “criminals”, would scrap indigenous land rights, told a congresswoman she was too ugly to rape & lauds military dictatorships has just been elected President of#Brazil.Thanks.

#Istanbul’s new airportpoised to be world’s biggest, opens today. What its name will be is a controversy w/ secularists insisting on
#Ataturk vs progovn suggesting Erdogan’s/Ottoman sultans’ names instead. But that’s not the only dispute. Mypiece:https://youtu.be/wxztZqERyYc
