Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

Dear Professor Roberts
I enjoyed your programme about Ancient Egypt having just returned from Luxor. It was much more crowded than in your programme though. Did you film at the crack of dawn? I recommend the film, Luxor, with Andrea Riseborough.

"Could the EU's frozen-assets plan destabilise European bond markets?"
The answer is a firm "No".
As experts, including those consulted for this article, explain, the impact of this plan to support Ukraine on bond markets would be minimal.
Enough excuses, get on with it!

Could the EU’s frozen-assets plan destabilise European bond markets?
EU plans to use frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine have prompted warnings that the move could push up government borrowing costs. But experts told Euronews Business that any impact on European debt markets is likely to be limited.

1/ The Wall Street Journal reports that the main focus of the US-Russia peace talks is to get commercial advantage for American companies, and personal benefits for individuals linked to the Trump Administration. European officials are said to be shocked by the plans. ⬇️

We should get serious about sanctions. Russian missiles that kill Ukrainian civilians contain parts made in the West. And this repeated mass murder of civilians by Moscow should bring total boycotts on Russian gas and oil. And the Ukrainians should get everything they need to defend themselves
16 people were killed and 49 injured after russia’s strike on Ternopil. Missiles and drones hit 2 residential buildings and damaged an industrial facility. Rescue workers are still clearing the rubble. u24.gov.ua/nafo-dark-ni...

1/ A Russian city is literally drowning in human waste due to the failure of its sewage system. It's worn out but hasn't been replaced or repaired due to a lack of funding. It's a vivid illustration of the costs imposed by the Russia government's budget being redirected to fund the war in Ukraine. ⬇️

Carole Cadwalladr was right and we’d be in a better world if more people had listened.
This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.
If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐
There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

There are lots of reasons not to leave ECHR. But apart from anything else, it just doesn't solve the problem the Tories/Reform think it does.
E.g. the Supreme Court judgment re Rwanda being unsafe explicitly said it was not based on ECHR.

There’s a widespread misconception in Western society that repelling Russian provocations would lead to war. It’s a narrative fueled by Russian propaganda. In reality, the opposite is true: Russia will continue escalating its aggression and provocations until it is stopped.

The vicious cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.
