As the US & UK say Iran must never acquire a nuclear weapon, Israel is awaiting the delivery later this year of its German-built sixth submarine, set to carry nuclear arms.

UK ministers have authorised dozens of exports of components for Israeli subs.

Canadian abduction with no warning. One minute, I was in an immigration office with an approved U.S. work visa. The next, I was told to put my hands against the wall, patted down before being sent to an Ice detention center without the chance to talk to a lawyer.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

Very glad to see the back of 2024. As Lizzie once said, it was an “annus horribilis” So limping hopefully into the sunrise of 2025 with fervent wishes for a kinder, more humanity filled year.

I thought it might be worth introducing myself here as most people might not know me and what I do.
