This is what modern “decolonisation” looks like. Everyone gets a cut of the money except the actually colonised.
The UK Government's Human Rights Memorandum on the Chagos Surrender Bill says Chagossians have no right to self-determination, only Mauritians do! Shameful

Go help them, young man. Leave New York alone.
This mother left home to find food for her starving children. When she returned, they were gone—killed in an Israeli airstrike, buried beneath the rubble. No words. Just heartbreak.
EU enlargement requires real commitment from Brussels, otherwise candidates will simply drift away. We saw this in Georgia, and after today's announcements I am increasingly worried that we are seeing the same in Ukraine. More thoughts below 🔗👇

This evening, 56 years after the Apollo 11 moon landing, I spoke with the astronaut Buzz Aldrin. Together we shared the memory of a historic feat, a testimony to human ingenuity, and we reflected on the mystery and greatness of Creation.
In-N-Out is opening an Eastern Territory Office in Tennessee, partly to benefit from lower taxes and a more business-friendly environment compared to California. The company received $1.9 million in property tax incentives to support the office and regional expansion
The problem with this guy isn’t his ethnicity, it’s his socialist worldview & economic agenda. We shouldn’t fall into the left’s trap: when you make his heritage the issue, the other side wins because they no longer have to defend their destructive policies. This video is Exhibit…
