Today we celebrate the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, the Patrons of Rome. The blood they shed in this city reveals the depth of God’s love that the Lord Jesus has given us. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…
This day of celebration draws us into the mission of Peter and Paul, that is, into the mission of Jesus himself. God places his trust in us, imperfect but forgiven sinners, so that his grace may shine through our lives, and his power that transforms evil into good may be revealed.
It is important for us today to look to these two Saints — Peter and Paul — to understand how we, in turn, can be apostles and builders of unity, and generous servants of the truth in charity. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…
Devolution is welcome, but it is not enough to fix the crises facing us all.
We will never bring about real change without a mass redistribution of wealth, ownership & power.
Public ownership. Wealth taxes. Rent controls. That must be the basis for a real alternative. [1/3]

Starmer went after the sick and disabled to fund his thirst for war. Repeating this strategy would be a catastrophic mistake.
Instead of wasting billions on weapons, we should invest in schools, renewable energy and our NHS.

Palestine is the litmus test.
Britain must end all arms sales to Israel, impose real sanctions, and establish an independent inquiry into Britain's participation in genocide.
Anything less will be a continuation of Britain's complicity in the greatest crime of our time. [3/3]

Strategy announces a Digital Credit Capital Framework designed to strengthen Digital Credit, enhance liquidity, preserve long-term Bitcoin exposure, and support long-term value creation. $MSTR $STRC strategy.com/press/strategy…
Strategy has increased its USD Reserve to $2.55B, representing 17.4 months of dividend coverage. The USD Reserve may be used only for dividends and interest expense, and will be maintained at a minimum of 12 months.
$STRC dividend rate has been increased by 50 bps to 12.00%, effective for record dates in July, 2026. We will continue to evaluate the rate monthly. Our corporate objective is for $STRC to trade over time at $99-$100.
1/ The 2026 conflicts produced 2 key U.S.-backed deals: U.S.-Iran Islamabad MoU & U.S.-Israel-Lebanon Trilateral Framework. The latter stands out as far more realistic. It has Israel’s direct signature + concrete security guarantees. The MoU? A fragile pause. Here’s why. 🧵
2/ First, ownership matters. Israel — the country with the most at stake on its northern border — actively negotiated and signed the Trilateral. Netanyahu endorsed it publicly.
The Iran MoU sidelined Israel. Predictable result: skepticism and continued ops.

3/ Contrast that with the MoU: A broad U.S.-Iran interim deal on ceasefires, Hormuz, sanctions relief, and nuclear talks. Lebanon gets rhetorical nods to “sovereignty,” but no teeth. Iran keeps proxy leverage. Without Israel’s buy-in, it’s vulnerable to collapse.
H.R. McMaster views the conflict as a 47-year war driven by the Iranian regime’s inherent ideology, which he believes cannot be appeased. He argues peace is impossible without a fundamental change in the nature of the Iranian government.

McMaster advocates for a credible military option, including potential strikes on nuclear and missile facilities, to impose costs and restore deterrence. While Trump has threatened military action and utilized "maximum pressure" via sanctions,

his recent actions suggest a preference for avoiding prolonged military entanglements in favor of negotiated settlements.
McMaster emphasizes that the U.S. must stand firmly with allies like Israel and Gulf states to counter Iranian hegemony,

I've wanted to put all the Russian regions that have gas shortages in one place.
I think there are a few missing, but still, the selection is impressive.

This is part 2 of the morning session in Samantha Tempest v DEFRA & Rural Payments Agency; the first part of the morning hearing is 
The court is at present taking a short break for the Judge and Panel members to decide whether to grant press requests for access to an electronic of the tribunal's evidence bundle.
J: We are minded to agree to electronic disclosure of the pleadings and the agreed list of issues - we think, not remotely controversial and will be v helpful to press understanding the case.
Gulf war and India’s economic resilience is the new case study.
Read it why:
1/5
When geopolitical shocks hit the Gulf region, the expectation globally was familiar: oil spikes, supply disruptions, panic buying and pressure on import-dependent economies. India faced the same external shock, but the outcome looked different.
According to CEA V. Anantha Nageswaran’s analysis, India passed its first major stress test with stability. There were no widespread fuel shortages, no disruptions in LPG delivery to households, and no panic behavior in domestic markets.
The significance is larger than it appears. India imports nearly 85% of its crude oil requirement, which historically would make the country highly vulnerable during Gulf disruptions.
Yet the economy absorbed the initial shock without severe dislocation. Resilience in this context is not luck; it reflects years of building buffers and institutional preparedness.
The story here is not that India escaped global volatility entirely, but that the country demonstrated a stronger ability to absorb and manage external stress.

A major reason India remained stable was diversification in energy sourcing. Earlier, dependence on a narrow group of suppliers created concentration risk.
Over the last few years, India expanded sourcing across regions and built flexibility into procurement strategies. During recent disruptions, India increased purchases from suppliers outside the Gulf region and expanded imports from markets such as the United States and Russia. Reports indicated U.S.
LPG imports moving toward record levels, helping offset pressure from Gulf supply routes. This matters because resilience in energy security is not just about having more oil; it is about reducing dependence on a single geography or route.
A country with diversified supply chains has more room to adapt when shocks emerge. The lesson is straightforward: strategic diversification acts like insurance during global uncertainty.
India’s ability to adjust sourcing rapidly reduced vulnerability and prevented the energy shock from becoming a broader economic crisis.

Another important dimension was shielding households from the sharpest impact of the price shock. International energy costs increased significantly during the period of uncertainty.
However, policymakers attempted to prevent the entire burden from being immediately transferred to consumers. CEA V. Anantha Nageswaran highlighted that import-linked LPG costs rose above ₹1,600, while household prices remained around ₹900, with adjustments occurring elsewhere in the system.
This approach helped reduce pressure on family budgets during a volatile period. For an economy the size of India, protecting household purchasing power has broader consequences because consumption remains a key growth driver.
If sudden increases in fuel and cooking costs directly hit millions of households, secondary effects spread across demand, inflation and sentiment. Economic resilience therefore is not only about preserving supply chains and financial indicators; it is also about protecting citizens from the most disruptive consequences of external shocks.
