Any American citizen who supports ICE is on the wrong side of history. This is a sobering read from a NZ journalist who is in Minneapolis.

What's up with this double spread ad? Impossible to tell what it's advertising. For some reason, most of the books are facing the wrong way. Paunchy man in tight sweater looks lost. It's for Brunello Cucinelli if that's any help (no idea) 🤷🏻♀️

"When the ETIAS is introduced from 2026 onwards, travellers from non-EU countries will have to pay a fee of around €20 per person for travel authorisation." €80+ for a family, that's way more than we paid in taxes to be part of the EU! Another own goal from the Brexiteers 🤦
