In English we know it as “Carol of the Bells,” but the melody arises from a Ukrainian folk tradition of songs welcoming the new year and summoning the forces of nature to meet human labor and bring prosperity.
Do listen.
I wrote about the history here: snyder.substack.com/p/o-generous...
Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.

It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.

The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

Our 2025 version of "Carol of the Bells" - originally a Ukrainian New Year celebration song "Shchedryk" - music 1st written by Mykola Leontovych in Pokrovsk (now under Russian occupation). The composer would be murdered by a Soviet agent in 1921.

There's a word for selling political influence for cash... (sadly Reform aren't the first to do so)

"When we ask people whether #Brexit has been a success or a failure, 62% to 11% say failure. And that really rockets up - when you ask people who did vote Labour last year and people who are still intending to vote Labour - that figure goes north of 85%." ~AA @pimlicat.bsky.social

Farage's failed Brexit promised the world and has delivered nothing but misery. So why trust Farage's Reform with the UK economy? They can't even run councils they've won.

Labour are launching an investigation into historical foreign interference in UK politics. But they are explicitly excluding the Brexit referendum from the investigation.

That's like pledging to investigate instances of arson while ignoring the wall of flames spanning the horizon.

At the last General Election, a united Right would have won 202 more seats.

An average 5.2% swing away from away Labour would completely change the political landscape.

We said all this in our publication, 'Thin Ice.'

The Right will unite. Progressives need to be ready.
