Heartbreaking scenes from Sumy this morning as residents gathered for Palm Sunday only to be met by Russian missiles. Horrific example of Russia intensifying attacks while Ukraine has accepted an unconditional ceasefire. My thoughts are with the Ukrainian people today.

#Bucha was the Oradour of Ukraine. Here, in #Sumy, is the Guernica of #Ukraine. No more discussions with #Russia. Immediate cessation of all negotiations. #Putin must be ostracized until a commitment is made not to target civilian objectives.

Genuinely amazing that Trump has devised a tariff regime that exempts phones manufactured in China but hammers anyone assembling electronics in the USA using parts made in China. Cannot wait to see how his boosters explain that decision as genius.

Homeless workers now have to submit proof of employment to be allowed to sleep in their cars in one of the richest counties in the U.S. Welcome to America: people shivering overnight in subzero temperatures, steps from luxury ski resorts, for the privilege of keeping the local economy booming.

Totally agree. Windrush was an entirely predictable and widely predicted consequence of the hostile environment. A basic knowledge of law and history was all that was needed to see the trouble coming.

I have written to David Lammy to ask him to summon the Chinese Ambassador after @WeraHobhouse.bsky.social was refused entry to Hong Kong when visiting her family, apparently simply because she is a British MP. China should not be allowed to undermine our democracy.
