Melburnians! If you find yourself at a loose end tomorrow night (or just want to get in out the rain) come along to the Melbourne Celtic Club at the Wild Geese Hotel at 7pm and hear me chat about The Good Father with the great Jason Steger… https://t.co/zDvrAL5f8W

BREAKING: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer just issued a stern warning to Trump, and even Nigel Farage, typically an opponent of Starmer, agrees!

“The mineral deal is not enough on its own. But can I just remind [Trump]; Russia is the aggressor, Zelensky is a war leader whose country has been invaded and we should all be supporting him and not fawning over Putin!”

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

As a result of these days, we see clear support from Europe. Even more unity, even more willingness to cooperate.

Everyone is united on the main issue – for peace to be real, we need real security guarantees. And this is the position of all of Europe – the entire continent. The United Kingdom, the European Union, Türkiye.

Of course, we understand the importance of America, and we are grateful for all the support we’ve received from the United States. There has not been a day when we haven’t felt gratitude. It’s gratitude for the preservation of our independence – our resilience in Ukraine is based on what our partners are doing for us – and for their own security.

What we need is peace, not endless war. And that’s why we say security guarantees are the key to this.

This is one of the hardest photos we’ve restored and colored, and perhaps one of the most necessary.

These two men are showing their liberators what their work was like as part of the Sonderkommando at Dachau camp. But what was the Sonderkommando?

Staff at the Age, SMH, Financial Review, Brisbane Times and WA Today are on strike for the next five days after rejecting Nine management’s 3 per cent pay offer. We’ve had a real wages cut of 6 per cent between 2020-23. Enough is enough.

Our account has lost over 19,000 followers in the last six months. It's difficult to find a reason of such a trend.

That's why we keep asking for your engagement and support. You all help us to remember.

Last days to help us bring Issue 9 into the world. But we've not yet reached our minimum orders to make this one. If we don't hit that threshold then this epic issue will be cast adrift. 😨 Order at https://t.co/3Cg8opJpMF

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

A heart-breaking moment saved in an SS picture of deportations of Hungarian Jews at Auschwitz II-Birkenau. It was taken 79 years ago, most likely in late May 1944.

A little child found a dandelion in the grass and is handing it or showing it to an older boy. All the people in this picture were waiting to be killed in gas chamber. They were murdered some time later.

Please RT this unique document.
