Well yes, why wouldn't Carole be mightily pissed off with the Observer at this point? P.S. for clarity I haven't followed the Observer back into glorious isolation in the market Is it the new Sunday Mail yet?

Most of the marquis, partigiani, resistance fighters etc of the Second World War were ordinary folk who just could not stand by and see the abuses, crime, corruption and evil murder of the Nazis and fascists go by unchecked. I love this photo of Donna Della resistenza—ordinary women who said no.

The substance of this is correct: it shouldn't take this long. But the reason "simple" deals with the UK take this long is because of exceptionalism, cavilling and wanting special terms. If the UK enters with that attitude, it will take a decade. 1

Many thanks to Bethany for her support - sadly, the BBC have once more shown why the trans community detest them so much! They happily showcase any anti-trans crank with an axe to grind on the BBC news, but actively censor any message of support for us.

Trump’s obeisance to Putin has been established beyond even the vaguest scintilla of doubt; the possibility of another January 6-style assault on US democracy after/during the mid-terms is clearly acute and ‘we’ are still wary of calling fascism fascism. These are the moments…

Weak men hide behind their phones. If the President or Hegseth want to throw slurs at a trans woman who served them — they can say it to my face. Then everyone can see the hate behind their policies. Thanks to @nicollewallace.bsky.social for having me on.

Estonian PM Kristen Michal on Trump's deal with Russia: "Estonia and the European Council should discuss next week whether we can quickly increase our support for Ukraine so that Ukrainian forces can blow up all Russian oil refineries to pieces."
See on suur valearvestus, sest diktaatoritega lepped on tee põrgusse. Gaasi- ja kütuseraha eest tapetakse süütuid inimesi. Ning mis väga tõenäoline, ei tule seda loodetud kütust. 
Taoline kokkulepe on vastassuunaline läänemaailma pikaajalise tegevusega piirata energiakandjate rahavoolu Putinile, USA on seni veennud oma liitlasi vene kûtusest loobuma, meie samuti. Venemaa rahatajätmise pikaajaline joon on õige ja seda tuleb jätkata.
Eestis ja Euroopa Ülemkogul tasub uuel nädala arutada, kas saame kiiresti panustada Ukrainasse rohkem, et nad laseks pilbasteks Vene naftatehased.

This is a major miscalculation, because making deals with dictators is the road to hell. Innocent people are being killed with money from gas and fuel sales. And, very likely, the promised fuel will never arrive.

Such an agreement runs directly counter to the Western world's longstanding efforts to restrict the flow of energy revenues to Putin. Until now, the United States has persuaded its allies to abandon Russian fuel, and we have done the same. The longstanding policy of depriving Russia of revenue is the right one and must continue.

Estonia and the European Council should discuss next week whether we can quickly increase our support for Ukraine so that Ukrainian forces can blow Russian oil refineries to pieces.

According to PM Mikhelson, Trump is trying to do everything possible, including through these agreements with Russia, to ensure that Republicans do not lose the midterm elections for the Senate and Congress in November. "Making deals with dictators is the road to hell."

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia
• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.
