The fastest and most direct way to solve the Russian problem in Moldova, Georgia etc is to arm Ukraine to win and not just to survive.

Very grateful to Foreign Secretary David Cameron @David_Cameron for his commitment to use every tool available to ensure the release of my husband @vkaramurza sentenced to 25 years of strict regime for standing up to Putin and for exposing his crimes

The UK calls for Russia to immediately release Vladimir Kara-Murza on humanitarian grounds. I met his wife @ekaramurza and his mother Elena Gordon today to assure them we are using every tool at our disposal to put pressure on Putin to release him. gov.uk/government/new…

War Diary Day 723 After the murder of @navalny, let's send a message to the Kremlin: give Russia's $300 billion in western banks to Ukraine. Do that now.

We live in a time increasingly resembling the second half of the 1930s. I couldn't live with myself with the knowledge I didn't do more to stop another Hitler. In light of the Republican wavering and in memory of Navalny I will give $100 towards FPV drones for Ukr for every RT.

Music in the Dark, @sallymag1 (@HachetteBooks) "A beautiful exploration of unlooked-for love in later life, its contrariness and its awkward, surprising joys, this is a story about resilience, memory, resurrection – and those parts of who we are that nobody can take away."

Whalebone Theatre, Joanna Quinn (@FigTreePenguin) "As the children grow to adulthood, another story has been unfolding in the wings. And when the war finally takes centre stage, the siblings find themselves cast, unrehearsed, into roles they never expected to play."
