The calculation is brutal: let Ukrainians bleed and freeze through the winter, pile up enough death and suffering, and hope the public turns on Zelenskyy. This isn’t diplomacy. It’s coercion through calculated abandonment.

Ukrainian presidential advisor Serhiy Beskrestnov confirms Elon Musk's Space X crippled Ukrainian capabilities last night. In other words, the US deliberately sabotaged European defence operations mid-mission. Every country in the world should move away from buying American hardware ASAP.
"I can confirm that tonight SpaceX has implemented a speed limit on Starlink terminals while in motion.

The limit currently applies to the StarShield “military package” and is set at 100 mph.

Our defense forces were not given notice of this limit, and this has resulted in the disruption of a number of missions.

It is clear that this action cannot be a coincidence and is related to the current political situation."

Just to be clear: the intelligence not being shared with Ukraine is not about targets in Russia. It’s about letting Russia target Ukrainian civilians indiscriminately, and not helping Ukraine warn its people so they can survive attacks. Trump is on the wrong side. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/13/w...

The award-winning documentary, directed by the Oscar-winning film-makers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor and produced by the Guardian, details Israel’s mass killing of civilians in Gaza. The film is in cinemas, including in the UK and the US, and will be shown in more than 50 countries. Continue reading...

Hard Brexit
could cost
£66bn a year


Leaked Treasury papers reveal lost revenue


Sam Coates Deputy Political Editor
Ollver Wright Policy Editor


Cabinet ministers are being warned
that the Treasury could lose up_to
£66 billion a year in tax revenues under
"hard Brexit", according to leaked
government papers.


GDP.could fall by as much as 9.5 per
cent if Britain leaves the single market
and hastorely on WorldTrade Organi-
sation rules for trading with the conti-
nent, compared with ifit stayed within
the EU,theforecasts show.Such a steep
drop in revenue would force ministers
to slash public spending or raise taxes.
The £66 billion drop, contained in a
draft cabinet committee paper seen by
The Times, is nearly a tenth of the
£716 billion that the government is pro-
jected to collect in taxes this year,and is
equivalent to 65 per cent of the annual
budget of NHS England.


Business leaders are_increasingly
worried that the UK could fail to nego-
tiate a deal with the 27 remaining EU
members by the time it leaves the
union, and will face a "cliff edge" of
trade tariffs and barriers,


Several cabinet ministers who sup-
ported Remain are stepping up efforts
to prioritise business concerns and the
economy in Brexit discussions, fearing
that Leave supporters fail to realise the
scale of potential damage, It comes as:;
○ Theresa May faces a potential legal
challenge by a group of Conservative
MPs over the decision to begin Brexit
negotiations without parliament's
approval. The prime minister's spokes-
man ruledoutgiving MPs a voteyester-
day,saying thatitwould"second guess'
the will of the British people.
○ Dominic Grieve, the former attor-
ney-general, said that unless the gov,
ernment could agree,a deal supported
by parliament it would not survive.

Carney taking a pretty clear stance against the Trump Administration’s actions here:
The leaders discussed the new agreement between the United States and Russia to supply millions of tonnes of diesel to the United States. The Prime Minister was clear: this agreement is in direct opposition to the efforts of Ukraine, Canada, and our allies to create peace and stability in Europe. It will provide additional revenue for Russia and help finance its illegal, unjustifiable war against Ukraine.
