To be fair it seems he was into a lot of dodgy **** above and beyond the sex trafficking so people in his contacts were not all NECESSARILY nonces. Not that it absolves them - I don’t think everyone flying in Epstein’s planes or sitting on his party island was directly involved in the abuse of young women, but I sure as heck believe that the vast majority of them knew it was going on and didn’t really care.

the fact that the uk have just given the ok to handing ukraine another £1 billion in weapons with no increase in in our own defence spending for 3 years should tell everyone how they think the next few years are going to play out

I know that. I didn't say they were all nonces.

Epstein and Maxwell would still be free and Andrew would still be doing his Royal duties if Trump hadn't have ran for President, that's for sure. And the reaction to Trump from the establishment, Hollywood and the media says to me they all know what was going on. The reaction to Trump running for President and being President was insane.

Have we lost interest in this now? Is the mainstream media coverage not feeding you enough? Have you turned your attention to what they are currently feeding you, the government bollocks?

They have you on a string.

The Netherlands can get through the coming winter with no gas shortages, even if Russia completely stops providing gas to Europe, provided that some preconditions are met. Gasunie Transport Services (GTS), the Netherlands’ national gas network operator, came to this conclusion after investigating the consequences of Russia closing the gas tap to Europe, NOS reports.

According to GTS, it won’t be necessary to shut down the industry or cut heating this coming winter. “That is good news for Dutch buyers,” GTS director Bart Jan Hoevers said to the broadcaster. “Other emergency measures such as extra production from the Groningen field do not appear to be necessary for the coming months.”

The GTS assumed that the coming winter would be an average one. “If you look at the coldest winter, you would need about 10 percent extra gas,” Hoevers said to NOS. “Now that could be less due to the high price.” But if Netherlands residents continue to be stingy with their gas use, as they’ve been over the past months due to the high prices, that also should not pose a significant problem.

Russia has already reduced its gas supply to Europe in the past few months. For example, Germany received 60 percent less gas through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline. The pipeline shut down entirely on Monday for annual maintenance. Germany expects Russia will keep it closed under the guise of technical problems.

That should not be a problem for the Netherlands as long as the following preconditions are met: gas usage remains 20 percent lower as is currently the case due to the high prices, coal-fired power stations continue to operate at full capacity, the Netherlands succeeds in doubling its imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to 24 billion cubic meters as planned, the LNG terminals in the Netherlands, Belgium, and United Kingdom continue to be fully utilized, and the Dutch gas storage facilities are filled to at least 80 percent. The Dutch gas storage facilities are currently about 57 percent full.

If the preconditions are met, the Netherlands will also be able to still export gas to Germany, France, and Belgium. Those countries depend on supply from the Netherlands for low-calorific gas.

some good news in terms of my nation's gas replacement for upcoming winter, and also good news for our neighbour countries Germany & Belgium, and France

An open act of terrorism. That’s how Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky described a Russian rocket attack on Thursday, which hit the western Ukrainian city of Vinnytsia. Officials say at least 23 people including three children have died, with another 66 people hospitalised. The missiles hit apartment blocks and a nearby cultural centre.

It was in that cultural centre — Vinnytsia’s House of Officers — that Roxolana‘s crew were preparing for her charity concert, which was supposed to take place on 17 July. Her fellow Vidbir star LAUD was supposed to appear as a guest performer. According to a report in The Guardian, the air strikes blew the roof off of the building where Roxolana’s crew were working.

The strikes wounded several of her crew members. Two were in critical condition following the strikes.

In a statement on her Instagram, Roxolana shared the following:
“Friends, we are currently in Vinnytsia. Unfortunately, at the time of the air strikes, a part of our team was on the main square. They are all wounded, two are fighting for their lives in the operating rooms. As a result, all performances and concerts are cancelled, and we are praying for the life of all who were hurt today.”

“We will never forgive. The money of the concert tickets will be returned. Please, pray.”

Several hours after the statement, Roxolana revealed that her sound engineer, Yevhen, had died as a result of the blast, while another team member remains in critical condition.

Roxolana and her team have received an outpouring of support from other artists in the Ukrainian music industry.

Among those who wrote messages of support were Eurovision 2022 winners Kalush Orchestra. But also Eurovision host Volodymyr Ostapchuk and song contest acts as Zlata Ognevich, Verka Serduchka and Tina Karol, who pledged moral support.

Roxolana had already visited more than half of the destinations on her tour. Only Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, Ternopil and Zhytomyr remained.
