I've asked my MP to speak up for dementia care at a Parliamentary debate this Thursday. This is a huge opportunity to push dementia care higher up the Government’s agenda.

Please join me and email your MP now. It only takes 2 minutes: https://t.co/G6Hxp6zsUe

Bootsy Collins’ life has been as vivid as his stage outfits: the funk, the acid, the time he was sure he'd be eaten by Jaws. He’s certainly the only musician in the Rejects to get fired for laughing.

The Putin regime today is essentially a type of hybrid totalitarianism that combines mature authoritarianism with totalitarian practices. This model requires a certain degree of self-justification. My new Carnegie article on today's Russian ideology https://t.co/cWYQPqDtqr

📢🎙️❗️
New @CEIP_Politika podcast is out. I talk to @CarnegieEndow's @AndrKolesnikov & @levada_ru's Denis Volkov about their fascinating and depressing paper "Alternate Reality: How Russian Society Learned to Stop Worrying About the War." Tune in. https://t.co/PNakobLjmJ

[Alexander Gabuev 陳寒士 @AlexGabuev]

My colleague @AndrKolesnikov and @levada_ru's Denis Volkov have published a new @CarnegieEndow paper documenting Russian attitudes towards the war. Main conclusion: support for the Kremlin's disastrous course is undiminished. Key findings in a🧵1/ https://t.co/nsgjD3ohhN

[Shura Collinson @ShuraCollinson]

Really important research by my brilliant colleague @AndrKolesnikov and @levada_ru's Denis Volkov looking beyond the mere percentages to analyse the rationale behind Russian attitudes to their country's war against Ukraine.

The greyhound racing industry’s celebratory #NationalGreyhoundWeek starts today.

We will be highlighting the reality of greyhound racing starting with its true cost - at least 22,284 injured and 2,718 dead greyhounds between 2018 - 2022

#GreyhoundRacing is a #NationalDisgrace

[Alexander Gabuev 陳寒士 @AlexGabuev]

New mobilization law is part of a wider effort to maximize Russia’s firepower and blunt western support for Kyiv. Far from seeking an off-ramp from his disastrous war in Ukraine, Vladimir Putin is preparing for an even bigger war, I argue in the @FT. https://t.co/8vIFglXaOJ

сейчас будет серия наивных твитов, но меня до сих пор — да, даже в 2023 году — шокирует легкость, с которой врут государственные чиновники, и то, что делают они это абсолютно безнаказанно

@vsdonovan @emilyfiner Brilliant, congratulations!

@niktwick @CarnegieRussia Politika is our new website showcasing the work of many brilliant authors who previously wrote for Carnegie Moscow Center. The equally brilliant Russia Eurasia Program is based in Washington. We are all colleagues and there is some overlap over what is published where, as here 😊

[Shura Collinson @ShuraCollinson]

Cannot recommend highly enough this incredibly important research by my colleague @AndrKolesnikov and Levada Center’s Denis Volkov into what Russians really think about the war in Ukraine.

[Andrei Kolesnikov @AndrKolesnikov]

For those who haven't read our report (and don't think about reading it because they know better): I am in Russia (and my coauthor Volkov as well). The study is based, among other things, on focus groups conducted in the Russian provinces https://t.co/w1BlE7Niu9

[Shura Collinson @ShuraCollinson]

@HallieRubenhold Fortunately there are rescues that will gladly allow people without gardens to adopt dogs, inc many of the wonderful greyhound rescues such as @BGPuk where we got our fabulous hound Ronnie from 🥰 I would recommend that everyone gets a gorgeous greyhound!

[Shura Collinson @ShuraCollinson]

This is heartbreaking

[Sarah Rainsford @sarahrainsford]

This CCTV footage we obtained shows 2 unarmed Ukrainian civilians shot in the back by Russian soldiers.

It is shocking, but Leonid Pliats' daughter wanted us to tell his story because she's afraid, as well as angry, about what Russian troops are capable of...

[Matthew Luxmoore @mjluxmoore]

Three weeks from now Russia is set to enter a real pro-war frenzy, with Zs everywhere and children across the country dressed like this for Victory Day celebrations. An annual ritual going into overdrive against the backdrop of real war.

[Alexander Baunov @baunov]

Many are asking me what happened to https://t.co/MAeYT68QsH and Carnegie Moscow Center. Those who are following the avalanche of bad news from Russia know, but this is the official statement from the American side
