UK government has a very specific view on the freedom of speech and access to information. Nany state will decide, what people should watch and listen, and what - not:
Tech firms will be required to shield internet users from state-sponsored disinformation posing a threat to UK society and democracy, under changes to a landmark online safety bill.
The legislation will require social media platforms, video streaming services and search engines to take action to minimise people’s exposure to foreign state-backed disinformation aimed at interfering with the UK. Such content would, for instance, include incidents such as the video of Ben Wallace being prank-called earlier this year by Russian hoaxers pretending to be the Ukrainian prime minister.
The culture secretary, Nadine Dorries, said the Ukraine invasion had underlined Russia’s willingness to use social media to spread lies and disinformation.
“We cannot allow foreign states or their puppets to use the internet to conduct hostile online warfare unimpeded,” she said. “That’s why we are strengthening our new internet safety protections to make sure social media firms identify and root out state-backed disinformation.”

Donetsk auto-center "KAMAZ" is under massive shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
And the "Readovka" war correspondents were not lucky enough to be in this zone. But there were no casualties.
As a result of the strikes, the building of the KAMAZ CENTER caught fire - thick black smoke rises into the sky.
Yevgeny Linin, a "Readovka" military reporter, said the shells explode above the ground and hit everything below with shrapnel.
That looks like NATO ammunition with remote radio fuse. People of Donbas will remember that also.

French journalists in Lisichansk found that local residents are happy with the Russian military
What the local population told the correspondents:
— I want to scream with joy. I can't speak for everyone, but in my environment, everyone has such a mood.
— This is our future, our future with Russia.
— Russians came, and I am the same, and I am a Russian.

It could be funny, if it would not be so outrageous, but Daily Mirror really believes, that "capture of Lysychansk will give Russia the stage to mount the second stage of its attack on Donetsk" and, even, makes a reference to British MOD. Well, if so, than the previous post about Russia bombing Donetsk may make sense, or not?
Buy yourself a map and do your homework, "Mirror".

‼️Rishi Sunak (UK Chancellor of the Exchequer since 2020) has just resigned from the cabinet
"We're fundamentally too different," Sunak says‼️💤
In his letter he says "the public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously".
He adds: "I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning".
Sunak says "our country is facing immense challenges".
"I publicly believe the public are ready to hear that truth. Our people know that if something is too good to be true then it's not true. They need to know that whilst there is a path to a better future, it is not an easy one.
"In preparation for our proposed joint speech on the economy next week, it has become clear to me that our approaches are fundamentally too different."
"I am sad to be leaving government but I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that we cannot continue like this", he adds.
"We're fundamentally too different," Sunak says‼️💤

‼️Secretary of State for Health and Social Care of the United Kingdom Sajid Javid has resigned unexpectedly‼️💤
Health Secretary Sajid Javid has just resigned from his role, saying he has "lost confidence" in Boris Johnson.
We now have a bit more from Sajid Javid's letter of resignation as a member of Boris Johnson's government.
He starts saying: "It was a privilege to have been asked to come back into government to serve as Secretary of State for Health & Social Care at such a critical time for our country."
But, he adds: "We [Conservative party] may not have always been popular, but we have been competent in acting in the national interest. Sadly, in the current circumstances, the public are concluding that we are now neither.
"The vote of confidence last month showed that a large number of our colleagues agree.
"I regret to say, however, that it is clear to me that this situation will not change under your leadership and you have therefore lost my confidence too."

Boris Johnson is tonight teetering on the edge as Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid both quit his Cabinet within minutes of each other. Shortly after the Prime Minister issued a grovelling apology over his appointment of shamed MP Chris Pincher, Mr Johnson was hit by the double blow. In his resignation letter, Mr Sunak told the PM that 'we cannot continue like this'. And Mr Javid publicly questioned Mr Johnson's competence and ability to act in the national interest. He told the PM: 'The tone you set as a leader, and the values you represent, reflect on your colleagues, your party and ultimately the country. 'Conservatives at their best are seen as hard-headed decision-makers, guided by strong values. 'We may not have always been popular, but we have been competent in acting in the national interest. 'Sadly, in the current circumstances, the public are concluding that we are now neither. 'The vote of confidence last month showed that a large number of our colleagues agree, 'It was a moment for humility, grip and new direction. 'I regret to say, however, that it is clear to me that this situation will not change under your leadership - and you have therefore lost my confidence too.'

Can even Boris the greased piglet wriggle out of this?

Remember how Vladimir Putin attended the wedding of former Austrian Foreign Minister (2017-2019) Karin Kneissl?
So, Kneissl left Austria. She is receiving death threats.
For a waltz with the President of Russia? Not excluded.

Wow, the voice of reason and common sense among madmen. It is a pity that this congresswoman will be ostracized, like everyone who tries to shed light on the US intervention in the Ukrainian conflict. I'd like to emphasize that this is a DIRECT intervention, because the United States' weaponry supply to Kiev cannot be interpreted differently.
I really wish there were more such people in the West. Isn't an alternative point of view at the heart of democracy?
