Serhiy Tyshchenko, a combat medic from Ukraine’s 30th Mechanized Brigade, spent an unbelievable 471 days in the same trench near Vasyukivka, Donetsk region. Cut off from the outside world with three fellow soldiers, they were shielded only by bags of clay from Russian FPV drones.

Zelensky says Russia’s massive strike amid peace talks shows Moscow isn’t serious about ending the war. While the U.S., Europe, and others are working on a real path to peace, Russia keeps prioritizing aggression. “We must not forget the reality. We must counter Russian strikes 24/7,” he said.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

A Ukrainian negotiator says talks have been positive and constructive, but key issues remain unresolved. The toughest topics: territorial questions, frozen Russian assets, and future security guarantees are still on the table. On NATO, Ukraine aims not to amend its constitution regarding membership.

Taxing the wealthy more heavily is necessary in many ways. Not sufficient as this argues persuasively. But seeing the ultra rich pay proportionately would help legitimate broader based taxation for the sake of improving public services and welfare

75% of Britain is farmland, just 1% is taken up by houses. So let’s not fuss overly on the 1% of the 1% (small plots) and focus instead on the 75% of 75% which we can give back to nature if we stop animal farming - that’s 50% of our entire country.

I agree with Gove (shock) that this is not the right thing to do - but it’s worth bearing in mind that the industry that has taken the vast majority of land aka ‘homes' from nature is not the housebuilding industry - it’s farming. And that’s driven by our food choice.
