Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

After a much needed vacation, I am back in Ukraine, back to work, and back on the airwaves with TVP World today ready to bring you the latest breaking news from the frontlines of Europe.

It feels good to be back home.

As another weekend of Barclay’s Premier League football gets underway, and a massacre is still unfolding in El Fasher, we cannot lose sight of the fact that the same people who are funding the slaughter in Sudan also own Manchester City Football Club.

It is a national disgrace.

Lord, have mercy.
There are no words for Sudan-- the "blood bath" conclusion marks the complete failure of the international community. This is a horrific situation & like so many other wars, I doubt there will be justice for these survivors & their families.
Sudan siege ends in bloodbath despite pleas for mercy
Evidence emerges of atrocities committed by the paramilitary RSF after it seized control of El Fasher

Russian fascism is engaged in an existential civilisational battle against liberal democracy, with the Ukrainian working class acting as the first line of defence for Europe.

Material support for the Ukrainian armed forces is class solidarity. Arming Kyiv is anti-fascist praxis.

Sultana’s comments are so offensive on so many levels. You can’t “both sides” Putin & Zelenskiy. You can’t speak over the voices of Ukrainian workers who are on the frontlines fighting for democracy & workers rights.

It is Putin and his acolytes who benefit from this war.
We take no joy criticising a young left-wing UK political figure who has often spoken up for workers' rights and progressive causes. But these barely coherent comments from Zarah Sultana on Ukraine sum up much of what is wrong with her wing of the left www.instagram.com/reel/DQT62ys...

We really should, and I can’t stress this enough, abolish the home office and replace it with separate ministries for security and immigration. Instead we’re just going to keep flogging this unreformable dead horse until the heat death of the universe

For many Brits who have made lives abroad, the mere possibility of this becoming UK government policy makes moving back a hugely risky prospect. Who’d want to invest time and effort settling back in Britain while threats of expulsion are dangled over the heads of non-British family members?
Sunday Times interview Tory "rising star" Katie Lam

She is clear she wants lots of legal migrants to be told to "go home" so as "to leave a mostly but not entirely culturally coherent group of people"

(The interviewer suggests she is scrapping ILR or stripping people of it)

The 📷 shows an apartment building in #Kyiv hit by a Russian Shahed last night.It captures the overall atmosphere in the city with painful accuracy

A hellish night of Russian strikes...We cherish every moment of life,because any moment,any day could be our last.That's why we live a bit desperately⤵️

Kyiv will certainly be watching the Gaza ceasefire developments closely, as there will be few countries outside of the Middle East that will benefit more from the renewed global attention a ceasefire will bring than Ukraine.

I'm as desperate to see the moral abominations in Gaza end as the rest of you, and I understand why there is so much anticipation that this might finally be a ceasefire, but given how this has played out over 2 years, some caution and skepticism should probably be advised.

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

You don’t actually have to both sides this. The Jewish community in the UK is not the Israeli government. You can just condemn the murder of two British Jews killed in their place of worship and you don’t have to say a single other thing.

"Secretary of War" Pete Hegseth brought the entire top brass of the US armed forces to a meeting so he could call them fat.

While today he presents himself as the defender of Palestinians under Israeli bombardment, the Russian intervention in Syria was supported by Labour’s former leader Jeremy Corbyn, and his director of communications Seamus Milne.

This is why Syrians continue to despise him.

On this day 10 years ago, Russia entered the Syrian civil war on behalf of the Assad regime, devastating infrastructure, displacing millions and murdering thousands of Syrian civilians.

Despite all of these widespread crimes, Moscow and Assad would go on to lose.
