The fact that the Scottish Government have overturned the National Park's decision on Flamingo Land is an outrage. This is the most unpopular planning application in Scottish history and will cause irreversible damage to the world-famous local environment at Loch Lomond.

Whether you believe Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah, a prophet, a philosopher, or just a proto-Reform rabbi, there's one thing for which there's consensus within academic history scholarship: that he died by crucifixion for challenging the authority of the government. Worth thinking about today.

Dear Steve Witkoff: An elementary lesson on Ukrainian demographics. The fact that someone, or the majority of people in a region, speaks the Russian language natively doesn’t mean they want to be part of Russia. It doesn’t mean they are not bombed by Russia.
