Sina Haghshenas, 27, a florist from Gorgan in northern Iran, was killed by security forces during the protests.

In a final act of defiance against the regime, his family danced at his funeral.

The courage and resilience of Iranians are truly remarkable.

This is what bravery looks like.
Music and dancing signify defiance at celebratory funerals of Iran’s protesters
Euphoric scenes are a snub to theocracy’s culture of piety, say analysts, and carry message of rebellion

Great to see my initial investigation into the London Post and Moscow Media Group in Press Gazette cited in this excellent investigation by that connects the figures behind the shadowy pink slime network to far-right activist Tommy Robinson.
🔴 Tommy Robinson and the London News Website Linked to a Putin-Backed Propaganda Network

Far-right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon was appointed as an ambassador to an unregistered charity connected to a Russian 'black PR' operation, Matt Bernardini reports

People have to do jail time. Powerful people, who thought they were untouchable. They have to be arrested, tried, stripped of assets relating to their crimes, and sent to jail.

Because if it doesn't happen, it will prove to voters that democracy is a sham.

And then we're seriously fucked.

This government clearly don't really understand the complexity or the danger of the situation. They show no sign of beginning to understand, and every sign of asking the monorail salesman how public transport should work. It's going to be an uphill struggle, but don't leave this to politicians.

Where are the poppy patriots? Why are they completely silent on this grotesque insult to our armed forces and specifically the 2,000 UK service and civilian personnel who were injured and the 457 who died in Afghanistan?

Two reactions to this from another in the UK.

One is WTAF Labour? I knew you'd gone more and more Reformish, but this is just plain and simple extreme right wing.

Second is WTAF @theguardian.com You've not covered this as headline news? Sadly not 100% surprise the way things have been going.
