Never suffered fools. That’s why I’m here, just trying to join the dots and navigate the mire
A subject nobody ever speaks about ever, given that the ‘problem’ of immigration dominates our news feeds here in the N.hemisphere, giving very little thought as to why people migrate in the first place. We’re all human, with families, dreams & tragedies. 0ur news only talks in numbers, not people
For migrants, the loss of a loved one in another country is a uniquely distressing experience, shaped by the heartbreak of distance, the stress of international travel and the bureaucratic complexities of death.

A decent analysis of the outcome of the Trump/Ramaphosa ‘Theatre of the Absurd’. SA didn’t win much (yet) nor did it lose ground, so considered not a bad outcome all & all. Mostly down to Ramaphosa’s composure.
Between the firefighting and fireworks, South Africa’s delegation did just enough to meet its strategic objectives.
ISS TODAY OP-ED: Was Ramaphosa’s diplomatic dance with Trump a success or a failure?

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.”

I celebrate the 80% of Germans who did not vote for the far right. Do not make 19.6% of German voters into "the" German people (again).
"The" German people don't exist! The German population is diverse and divided, but voted overwhelmingly for liberal democratic parties.

Trumps federal cull is going to be just like Brexit. When the US economy starts to wither, instead of recognising the consequences of their actions, he will say it’s because they didn’t drain the swamp enough, that the cuts weren’t deep enough, just like Brexit wasn’t hard enough to work

If we look at the numbers,it’s obvious how enormous the contribution of the EU to Ukraine’s defense has been.To say that the EU helps Ukraine less than the USA is simply untrue
The total aid allocated by Europe to Ukraine over the past 3 years surpasses the US– nearing almost €140 billion,—IFW

Excellent analysis on the nonsense Trump is alluding to in South Africa which despite its many challenges is a strong constitutional democracy with regard for international law (Omar al-Bashir aside)
The notion that Afrikaners are being persecuted in South Africa is about as plausible as a claim that Mar-a-Lago is a working-class refuge.
