Ukraine's former FM Kuleba: After the Abu Dhabi talks, Jared Kushner said Russia is ready for peace on certain terms, now let's see if Ukraine is. Kushner is essentially speaking Moscow's language.

He pushes a purely Russian narrative — Kuleba's YouTube channel. 1/

In June of 1941, Hitler's Army began a rampage through Ukraine, razing towns, unleashing death squads, and massacring Jews by the hundreds of thousands. In one village, four Jewish brothers enlisted in the military, said goodbye to their parents, and walked off to fight the Nazis.

By the war's end in 1945, only one of the brothers, named Semyon, was still alive. He returned to find that the Nazis had torched his entire village, burning his parents to death. Semyon's family was dead, and his beloved Ukraine was in ruins. The Nazis had murdered between 1.2 and 1.6 million Ukrainian Jews.

Semyon married a fellow Ukrainian Jew who had survived the war by fleeing her city, in which the Nazis had killed 5,000 Jews. Two years later, in that same city, they had a son, Oleksandr, keeping alive the family line that the Nazis had brought a razor's width from extinction. Thirty-one years after that, Oleksandr had his own little boy.

That boy was Volodymyr Zelensky, who grew up to become the President of independent, democratic Ukraine. Today, he leads his outmanned, outgunned, ferociously defiant nation against the onslaught of Russia. As Russia dashes itself against the will of his people, Zelensky, the survivor of survivors, summons the resilience of his ancestors. He does not bend. #Zalensky #Ukraine

George Monbiot campaigns for the end of livestock farming, and he is not a serious person.

He is a newspaper columnist who believes the most damaging food in Britain is beef raised on grass. Not the feedlot kind. The kind standing on a wet hill eating what grew there. He has put this in a book.

He calls the uplands "sheepwrecked" and the sheep a white plague. His alternative for those hills is wolves and lynx, and in one book he gets wistful about elephants. In Wales.

He was a vegan who announced in 2010 that he had been wrong about veganism, then announced a few years later that he had been wrong about being wrong. In between he went on Newsnight and skinned and ate a squirrel he had found dead, to make a point.

He once tried to perform a citizen's arrest on an American ambassador at a book festival.

His plan to feed the country is a bacterium in a steel tank in Finland that eats hydrogen. In 2020 he ate a pancake made from it and declared the end of most agriculture, with the price to match the cheapest protein on earth inside five years. The five years have gone. The sheep have not.

For the big finish of his television film against livestock he climbed a Scottish hill, shot a deer, cried, and hoped aloud that wolves would do it next time.

So the position, as best anyone can assemble it, is that a lamb on a hillside is an ecological crime, a deer shot by a journalist is conservation, a roadkill squirrel is supper, and dinner for 68 million people will be along shortly from a fermenter.

The farmer he wants abolished has fed somebody every day for 40 years without once holding a press conference.

Monbiot has fed one man one pancake, and it took a laboratory.

This is another breakthrough moment for me as a recent @Plaid_Cymru voter! 🤦‍♀️ ⬇️ @AndrewRTDavies was superb yesterday. Have a listen. I was in the gallery and when @DafyddTrystan @mabonapgwynfor @Heledd_Plaid did not stand up to deny their lies, I cried. Vindicated. Thank you 🙏

Oi, Mabon, forget the deflection and tell who 'persuaded' you to renege on your promise of a Welsh Covid inquiry.

My extended thoughts on massive demographic change in the UK can be found here.

“Simply put, the indigenous population of this country, White Britons, made Great Britain the way it is. People of all races have contributed since 1945 (and they deserve praise and gratitude for doing so), but British culture, its institutions and way of life, are overwhelmingly a product of its indigenous White British population. For that culture to be perpetuated from generation to generation, it is important to limit the number of people from other countries who come to live in the UK. If too many arrive, instead of assimilating into our way of life (which is entirely possible and has been achieved by millions of people of all races, including my own colleagues in Reform UK), they will bring with them their own way of life.”

[The Free Speech Union @SpeechUnion]

The Free Speech Union is deeply troubled by what is happening in the Welsh Parliament.

The freedom of elected representatives to speak is at the heart of our democracy. Those we elect to represent us should be able to voice their constituents’ concerns, however uncomfortable they may be for some to hear.

We stand with @joemartin1066 and every elected representative’s right to speak freely in their Parliament.

Good of them.

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

The peace talks are failing because Putin still believes he can win the war, and because Trump, Kushner and Witkoff encourage this belief. By pressuring Ukraine, not Russia, they are prolonging the conflict, which will kill more people.

[David Mills MS @DavidMillsMS]

International Development isn't devolved to Wales, but that doesn't stop Plaid Cymru taking money to be spent at home, and lavishing it on those abroad through harebrained schemes.

Charity begins at home, so I reminded the Welsh Government of their obligation to our own people.

“A tiger wearing a bell will starve.”

- Mongolian Proverb

This is a powerful Mongolian proverb that emphasizes the value of silence, patience, and discretion in achieving success. It reminds us that even the strongest and most capable individuals can undermine their own potential by revealing their intentions too soon.

Just as the sound of a bell warns a tiger’s prey of its approach, constantly announcing your ambitions can expose your plans to unnecessary attention, competition, and interference. True strength is not always displayed through words or recognition, but through quiet determination and deliberate action. The lesson is simple: move in silence, remain focused on your goals, and allow your accomplishments to speak louder than your promises.
