I only recently listened to this extraordinary 10 part podcast - Sergei and the Westminster Spy Ring by @peterjukes.bsky.social and @carolecadwalla.bsky.social . It’s gripping, chilling, and deeply disturbing. The facts of Russian intrusion into UK politics laid bare, in horrifying fashion.
the-citizens.bsky.social The Citizens @the-citizens.bsky.social · 25d
Rory Stewart and Alistair Campbell @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social spell out what needs to happen - the same demand we’ve made for years.

We need a real, independent inquiry 🧵

Tomorrow is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada. On Dec. 6, 1989, a gunman murdered 14 women at École #Polytechnique de Montréal because they were women. Remember their names. And continue to fight to end gender-based violence in all of its forms #EndGBV

The Rubber Duck Museum in Point Roberts, Washington is moving across the border to Tsawwassen Mills, BC.
The owners say Canadians have stopped coming, and tariffs have driven up the cost of ducks.
