It is important to be clear - the war on #Ukraine is a war of aggression started by #Russia. A fact that no amount of #disinformation can obscure.

00:00- The Duke of Sussex is quite right: “we are no longer debating facts”. The fight against online disinformation and lies is one of the biggest challenges we face. Addressing it begins with educating our children to discern fact from fiction - we must do more
- Against the backdrop of #Syria rejoining the #ArabLeague, we remind the #UNSC that the Syrian regime has murdered its own citizens on multiple occasions in #chemicalattacks It is shameful that the UNSC has failed to hold the regime to account for these abhorrent crimes 1/2
00:00 - In #UNSC #Russia claims ‘with high degree of certainty’ that US sabotaged #Nordstream. However, the claim is based on an article by a journalist relying on a single secret source, the ‘facts’ of which have been debunked by @OAlexanderDK and others using open source material 1/2
00:00 - Yesterday the comedian @jimmy_dore became the latest @TheGrayzoneNews collaborator to brief the #UNSC at 🇷🇺’s request - joining @MaxBlumenthal @raymcgovern @BowesChay A short 🧵 comparing the rhetoric of these briefers and that of Oswald Mosley and British Union of Fascists 1/9

The regime has repeatedly used these weapons against its own people. We must not forget the victims #Accountability

00:00 - Replying to @thomasphippsIn 1939, Mosley and the BUF defended Nazi Germany, claiming Poland was ‘corrupt’ and a ‘puppet of the West’, which itself was responsible for a ‘strangulation policy’ that had caused Germany to feel ‘embattled’. They echoed genocidal Nazi rhetoric 4/9
- Really excited to start my journey as 🇬🇧 Deputy Ambassador in 🇱🇾 at the beautiful Bayt Ali Gana. Where should I visit next as I learn more about this fascinating country?
00:00 - The White Helmets is a humanitarian organisation responsible for heroic lifesaving work. Abhorrent accusations by #Russia and the #Assad regime represent #disinformation designed to undermine the evidence of atrocities documented by @SyriaCivilDef @SyriaCivilDefe
00:00 - My debut in Rolling Stone, a long-read on how Ukraine decisively defeated Russia in the Battle for Kyiv. rollingstone.co.uk/politics/featu…
