‘The last details we’ve had of any peace deal were hugely loaded in favour of Russia.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social on the US-Ukraine critical minerals deal and the latest Vatican peace talks between Trump and Zelensky.

‘Handing Putin a victory guarantees future conflict in Europe.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social speaks to LBC News on America’s role in ongoing peace negotiations and outlines how to put pressure on Putin to end the war, following Russia’s overnight strikes on Kyiv.

Here’s a picture of me, a European, security freeloading in Afghanistan as part of a US Army special forces task force. Look! They even gave me a special “freeloader” badge to wear above my medals. 12 close friends and colleagues killed when they were there freeloading too.

‘So much damage has now been done not only to Ukraine, not only to America’s reputation as a fair and supportive ally, but also to relations with European countries.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social discusses Ukraine’s agreement to a 30 day ceasefire with Russia on GB News.

‘When every smartphone is a battlefield, controlling the story is as crucial as controlling the ground.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social writes for @telegraphnews.bsky.social on how the British army can adapt the IDF’s strategies for the war in Ukraine. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/03...

‘We are seeing a huge threat to global security. It sends a terrible message to China over Taiwan that we are not prepared to back up our allies as the West and as America, specifically.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social reacts to Zelensky’s statement today that Ukraine is ready to work with the US.

Zelenskyy is a ten times a man compared to the other two, put together. Two moral weakling, tyrant-fellating, cheap showmen for simpletons, barking at one of modern history’s great men. What an age we live in. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

‘Trump has decided to cozy up to one of the world’s worst dictators. In doing so, it utterly demeans Zelensky, who is an absolute hero.’ @mrandrewfox.bsky.social on TalkTV discusses the White House “nakedly parroting" Kremlin disinformation lines amid peace talks.

Trump could have pushed for an end to the war in Ukraine without becoming actively hostile to Ukraine. Instead, he has imbibed Putin’s lies. Have written about the emergence of a new US/Russia axis, where it comes from and the staggering implications for Europe. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

‘History teaches us the consequences of appeasing dictators: more conflict further down the line.' @mrandrewfox.bsky.social writes for @lbc.co.uk on Trump's shift towards Ukraine, the risks of sidelining NATO, and standing firm against authoritarian aggression. www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/view...

On this Holocaust Memorial Day we remember all those murdered, including 6 million Jews, whose deaths are a stark reminder of the devastating consequences when prejudice and hatred go unchecked.

If you’ve been there, this is a photo you can smell. They were locked in and burned alive.

My dog photo of the year

I chose this dog walk route today for a reason. Behind me, the site of our first ever harbour area in training. I was deployment Platoon Sergeant; Aaron Lewis was the Platoon Commander. Last weekend was the anniversary of Aaron’s death in Afghanistan. Today’s walk was my way of remembering him.

Glorious and relaxing weekend back in the Shire. Always nice to get away from it in the Shropshire hills.

watching German ice football highlights, I’ve never felt more alive

Mish K from X has made it over here. She’s @mishkav.bsky.social You know what to do…

Look who just joined the party #ICC

I was asked to give a speech at a synagogue in London today. As a Catholic, I was honoured to speak after the Torah reading and the Aleinu. It was a privilege to stand alongside the UK’s Jewish community during these times of pogroms and raging antisemitism. ✝️✡️🇬🇧

More dogs in airports needed

Up early, but today looks like: hanging out with my dogs; giving a speech at a synagogue; home to walk the dogs; then hours of writing with watching sports in the background. That’s a damned good Saturday.

As international law smoulders in the ashes of the Palestinian drive to burn it to the ground, it’s worth reminding ourselves of the facts. The case against Netanyahu and Gallant is farcical nonsense. open.substack.com/pub/mrandrew...

Looking forward to those celebrating the arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant now accepting that Hamas committed rape on 7 October.

You know you’re on the wrong side of history when Hamas. a recognized terror organization, applauds the ICC for issuing arrest warrants for Bibi Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. 🤡

Thread: On the ICC's pseudo-legal facade (lawfare), the threat to arrest Netanyahu, Gallant and other Israelis, the central role of corrupt NGOs (Ken Roth, #HRW, #Amnesty, etal) in this farce, and whether the ICC will survive....
