1/ What a Russian breaking of the ceasefire will look like, step by step.
There are far better experts on this, but I was an Australian diplomat in Ukraine in 2014 so I've seen this play out up close.
So join me, brothers and sisters, as we count down to a fullscale re-invasion.

Genuine quote here from the British Prime Minister: "I always sit in front of the Union Jack. I’ve been doing it for years.”

Epstein worked for both Mossad and Russian intelligence, anyone telling you it has to be one or the other is asking you to stop looking at one or the other. It’s not just those two but they are the two currently holding unprecedented power over a sitting US president.

There aren't enough prison spaces in the world to house everyone if this broad an approach to policing is adopted more widely.
Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.
