🇫🇷 Macron: Two years ago, the world learned of the death of Alexei Navalny, whose memory I honor.

It's quite obvious that criminal damage and terrorist activity are entirely different things.

It's yet another move of this increasingly authoritarian Labour Government to try and conflate the two.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied on her US citizenship application. She checked the no box when asked if she had ever procured anyone for prostitution.

She had been trafficking since 1994. This could get another 25 years added to her sentence.
