Trump may or may not be a Russian asset. It doesn’t really matter: he acts like a Russian asset.

George Monbiot is right: the best option is to rejoin the EU. And the reality is that the process doesn't have to take long. Experts have confirmed that the UK could rejoin within a single Parliament.

Private equity has hollowed-out high streets. Famous names, jobs, supply chains destroyed. Aided by the state: PE gets tax relief on interest payments. No tax on dividends paid to owners holed up in tax havens. No inquiry into serial bankruptcies. It is gangster capitalism. archive.ph/zisBU

First.The narrative that diesel prices in America are heavily impacted by Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries is completely fabricated. ​Second.The sanctions waiver Trump just granted to Russia is using the fabricated narrative above to make it look like it's in America's national interest.

“Drought forces” is highly inappropriate here. Poverty and climate change are both terrible issues, but the only thing that creates a situation where pre-teen girls are sold as brides is an appalling culture that needs to be tackled. A pretty disgraceful headline.
