While Canada takes decisions showing dignity and courage, Europe takes decisions showing insecurity and fear. While Canada’s citizens demand their leaders show self-respect, Europe’s citizens accept their leaders humiliating this continent with their grovelling to Trump. My latest on Substack:

Europeans should learn from Canadian courage
“Do not retaliate and you will be rewarded,” the White House told Europe in April 2025. Our leaders believed the lie. But Mark Carney has understood that appeasement only invites more attacks.

European Parliament @europarl.europa.eu · 23/08/2026
37 years ago, two million people joined hands across Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in a fearless demand for freedom from Soviet occupation: the Baltic Way. 🇪🇪🤝🇱🇻🤝🇱🇹 A main walkway in the EP building in Brussels is named in honour of the event.
 "Hand in hand towards freedom; The Baltic Way 23 August 1989" reads the text on this powerful historic photograph of the the Baltic Way. The flags of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are overlaid on the image, atop the text.  In the photo, people are holding hands tightly and smiling, with the Lithuanian flag flying above them. Some have even raised their intertwined hands up to bravely show them to the camera. The European Parliament logo is in the bottom right hand corner.

How marvellous that Labour's appetite for curbing Nigel Farage’s big-money backers vanishes the moment a donation cap threatens their own trade union bankroll. Truly reassuring to know campaign finance reform applies strictly to everyone else. 👇

Vital resources should be owned & controlled publicly so they can be used & applied for the public good not private greed. Norway understood that fact of life & economics whilst the UK opted for the private ownership & associated greed option. Public need is much more important than private profits.

As I’ve said for 18 months, Trump can lie to them about a lot of things and they will buy it, but his lies about this stuff aren’t fooling anyone. People know how much they pay for things and how much money is in their bank account. The lies & denials only make people more angry.

“Smith hopes that, in the future, winners of the Ctrl Z Award can provide comfort & advice to other researchers facing the daunting process of self-retraction: ‘We can kind of build a community of people who are willing to say, “Yes, I’ve been through this. This is what happened….You will be ok”’.”🧪
"The 2026 honorees represent a commitment to the core values of science, choosing transparency over reputation even when faced with potential professional risks," Ivan Oransky, executive director of The Center for Scientific Integrity, said in a statement. "Their actions remind us science is strongest when researchers are committed to following the evidence wherever it leads, even when that means correcting their own work."

Centrist orgs like Third Way aren't afraid that a progressive will lose the general in 2028. They're afraid that they'll win www.nytimes.com/2026/08/06/u...
screenshot from New York Times in reader mode because an ugly ad was breaking up the paragraphs"
“We are preparing for the next war that is coming,” said Jonathan Cowan, the president of Third Way, a leading centrist Democratic group, revealing to The New York Times a new $15 million effort between now and 2028 to discredit democratic socialism.
Dr. El-Sayed’s win was not the blowout that some pre-election polls had predicted. But his narrow nomination in one of the country’s signature swing states still represented a critical moment for the party’s middle, which had previously sought to cast the far left’s successes as contained within the country’s most urban and liberal corridors.
**Their fear: Dr. El-Sayed was paving a path for a progressive to seize the party’s presidential nomination in 2028 — and then go on to lose the general election.**
