Trump gets ceasefire deal, 20 hostages released, Gaza obliterated and listening to the media he’s the greatest diplomat since Metternich

We could just celebrate a Nobel laureate’s own achievements and contributions to their field on their own merit.
Instead of linking it and absolutely everything back to someone who didn’t win, didn’t deserve to win and frankly was never going to win.

Seeing as so many people are making claims about the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement and the ECHR, here's a short but comprehensive explainer from people who have been thinking, writing and talking about this for longer than most 😊
A new Explainer out from @aoifemod.bsky.social and me detailing the UK's ECHR commitments under the 1998 Agreement in response to recent speculation. It is short, because there is very little to say - the UK's obligations are evident on the B/GFA's plain text:
