Did you know (perhaps you did) that Oxford had a leper chapel, and that it still stands? Tucked away in Bartlemas, it celebrates its 900th anniversary this year. A series of events are scheduled to mark the nonacentennial. #hiddenOxford #Oxfordhistory #Artweeks

Medieval chess and race: the game that levelled the board eastangliabylines.co.uk/lifestyle/hi...

🇭🇺 Large crowds gathered today in Hungary’s capital in support of the Tisza Party and its leader,Péter Magyar. The government portrayed those gathered as its own supporters,but this was denied by Bloomberg and Hungarian outlet"Kontroll" Parliamentary elections in Hungary are scheduled for April 12.

On this National holiday in Hungary there were 2 demonstrations. In the morning it was Orbán followers (orange line) and during the afternoon it was Magyar + Tisza party (red line). The whole red line is now filled with people. The biggest demonstration ever held in Hungary!

Russia enters Viktor Orban's election campaign, providing consultants who will flood social media with messages designed, ironically, to frame Orbán, a Russia puppet, as "the only candidate who can keep Hungary sovereign" From @financialtimes.com giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

War tests the meaning of peace. As the U.S. and Israel escalate strikes on Iran, the Board of Peace exposes a deeper contradiction in modern diplomacy. When institutions lack enforcement, peace becomes branding. My latest analysis ↓

With Hungary’s elections only 2 months away, let’s look at what the opposition promises when it comes to the EU, rule of law & Hungary’s alliances. Media coverage highlighted euro adoption and independence from RU energy by 2035 but there's much more in the program www.reuters.com/business/hun...

www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/majori... Maybe worth noting this poll was produced by Public First, whose CEO wrote the 2019 Tory manifesto, and whose co-founder James Frayne is a best buddy of Dominic Cummings.

This series of articles by Peter Oborne is so spot on - withering about McSweeney - and his obsessive focus on party politics, scheming and tactics, at expense of policy conducive to the national interest - and in process ultimately ruining Starmer’s govt.

McSweeney is gone. Time for Starmer to try to salvage his government by launching long overdue proper action to address all the flaws in our political system - peerages, patronage, cronyism, party finances, MPs revolving door, appointments, ministerial code, business interests, Leveson, etc etc.

That‘s the spirit.

Great work by Greg Sargent. We are, right now, deciding whether we want to be a land of giant concentration camps and ethnic cleanings. newrepublic.com/article/2060...

A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.
