Proving once again that the online world created by billionaires and Russian troll farms is not the real world, tonight's Warsaw protest against the far-right.

Україна стоїть на порозі п’ятої зими під час війни. Росія безупинно продовжує свої атаки. Шановний Володимире @zelenskyyua, у цей час Україна може повністю покладатися на Німеччину. Ми посилюємо нашу зимову допомогу.

Ice hockey federations of five European countries - Denmark, Latvia, Norway, Finland, and Sweden - have refused to play against the Russian national team at the 2027 World Championship in Germany in May.
Thank you for standing with Ukraine!
The Russian team was admitted to the tournament in late October following a ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne.
The Norwegian Ice Hockey Association stated that "Russia must be excluded from all international championships as long as the war in Ukraine continues."
Latvia reported that their national teams will not play against Russia or Belarus as long as Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine continues. They also recalled that in February 2024, the Latvian Parliament passed a law prohibiting national sports teams from participating in matches against teams from Russia and Belarus, even if they compete under a neutral flag.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has ordered the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) to allow Russian national teams to compete in the World Championships in the 2026-27 season.
Thus, Russian teams could return to international ice hockey for the first time since 2022.
The IIHF said it disagrees with the CAS ruling but intends to comply with it.
The ruling covers five 2027 World Championships: the men's and women's World Championships, the World Junior Championship, and the men's and women's under-18 tournaments.
The men's World Championship will take place in Germany in May 2027. Ukraine's men's national team will also compete in the tournament, returning to the top division for the first time since 2007.

russian bots keep telling me Ukraine was killing russian speakers in Donbas.
Interesting.
I was born in Donbas. In Stakhanov.
I grew up speaking both Ukrainian and russian.
Nobody persecuted me for my language.
Then russia arrived with tanks, bombs, and promises to “save” us.
I lost my home.
But please, random internet expert,
Explain my childhood to me.
I’m sure you know better.

Brexit has been bad for Britain. Here’s why we need to rethink our relationship with Europe 👇
If Cleverly gets more that 15% of the Mayoral vote in London, he'll be doing well.
Most Londoners remember @JamesCleverly as a sneering, arrogant, right-wing stooge and another useful idiot for Putin.
No thanks.
Has Brexit been good for London?
"I think on balance, it has", Conservative London mayoral hopeful Sir James Cleverly MP tells #PoliticsLive

Any plan for lasting peace in Europe must address Russia’s military grip on Belarus.
Even after the guns fall silent in 🇺🇦, that threat could remain. Belarus must not become Putin’s consolation prize.
We must be free to choose our own future, without Russian interference.

The UK is a vital partner for European security.
With Defence Secretary @wesstreeting, we held our Foreign and Security Policy Dialogue in Brussels.
Our Security and Defence Partnership is delivering. We are working together to counter hybrid threats and foreign information manipulation, and our close cooperation on sanctions continues.
At the EU-UK Summit in two weeks, we will take next steps.

Precisamos falar sobre Claudia Sheinbaum. 🇲🇽
• Mais que dobrou o salário mínimo desde 2018
• Reduziu os homicídios em quase 50%
• Fechou o primeiro ano com 69% de aprovação
• Aprovou a redução da jornada de 48 para 40 horas semanais
She seems to have the right values, this President.
Hoy honramos la memoria de nuestros ancestros, celebramos la herencia de los pueblos originarios y reconocemos la grandeza cultural que nos da identidad.
Cada ofrenda, cada flor de cempasúchil y cada veladora son expresiones de amor, memoria y respeto por quienes nos antecedieron.
Preservar nuestras tradiciones es reconocer de dónde venimos, sentir orgullo de lo que somos y construir, desde nuestras raíces, la visión del presente y del futuro.

The European Union, as we know it today, was born 33 years ago. 🇪🇺
On 1 November 1993, the Maastricht Treaty entered into force, officially establishing the European Union and laying the foundations for closer political, economic and social integration.
Happy birthday, Europe!
Congratulations Mrs Sheinbaum.
