Very well done Bill! 👍 #Russian #oligarchs
Just arrived in Davos. For the last 15 years I’ve been telling anybody at the WEF who would listen not to business with the Putin regime. As of March, all Russian oligarchs and government officials are banned. Mission accomplished!

Does anyone else wake up sometimes in complete disbelief that Boris Johnson is our Prime Minister? I suspect Boris himself does. The man couldn’t run a bath.

I’m not “left wing” at all, so you have my utmost respect for standing up for what is right. I must admit I did enjoy Chomsky’s “Hegemony or Survival“ though.
Just wanted to underline I'm very much leftwing myself: hence I expect people with whom I seem to share values to stand a proper moral ground, not to be blinded by moral superiority that does not exist in real life. 🤷🏻♀️

Your talent in photography never ceases to impress.
Good morning Warsaw! Thank you to the weather gods for trying to hide the #UglyBuilding from the Warsovians #lowcloud

Very significant in #RussiaUkraineConflict: “one country is considering being the first to supply the missile to Ukraine. Once that “well stocked” nation commits to sending Harpoons, others might follow” - which country is that?

Yes very bad indeed, like the Guardian article to which I was compelled to write a rebuttal: theguardian.com/world/2018/j…
Not insightful. Bafflingly bad. Makes no mention of repeated Russian provocations against both countries. GRU on Gotland. Airiston Helmi. Good Friday 2013. Submarines. Cyber attacks. Info ops. And much much more
Such #censorship is definitely wrong - let’s see if #Musk can do better with Twitter.
Journalist @Den_2042 who focus on human rights, Belarus, Ukraine and Russia has been suspended from @Twitter for almost a month for tweeting photos of wounded Ukrainian children. That's not right I think, please give his account back @TwitterSupport.
Please retweet to support.

‘Air Klepto’ flight was cleared by Shapps Dept. Any connection to donations to a certain political party? heraldscotland.com/politics/…

We had better be….shocking to learn of the government’s attitude forty years after the massacre, effectively still colluding with the Soviets by airbrushing. Can you share any of the docs?
Ha! I'm literally dealing with documents from the 1980s with the UK government having palpitations every time the British Poles erected a 'Katyń 1940' monument.
Seem to be over that now, don't we chaps? 😏

In the north of Kharkiv region Ukrainian defenders have crossed the Siverskyi Donets River in several places, with reports of advancing to within 7 km of rashist-occupied Vovchansk.

New @hrw report on #Ukraine documents abhorrent, unlawful, and cruel atrocities committed by the Russian forces occupying parts of Kyiv & Chernihiv regions. These are evident war crimes that should be promptly & impartially investigated and appropriately prosecuted!

Fascinating thread on the Chinese viewpoint on the #RussianUkrainianWar - one has to agree with the statement at the end.
Gao Yusheng, former Chinese ambassador to Ukraine:
The trend of the Russo-Ukrainian war and its impact on
the international order

My Spectator review of Tariq Ali's appallingly error-strewn book on Winston Churchill: spectator.co.uk/article/What… It's fine writing about someone you hate on political grounds, but you ought to get the basic facts roughly right. Simon Heffer's Telegraph review found even more errors
