The #BloodySunday march has just started in Derry
Irish Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD and Foreign minister @simoncoveney on their way to the #BloodySunday memorial.
#BloodySunday50 #Derry 🇬🇧🇮🇪
The heartbreaking names of #BloodySunday victims are being read out

Moving end of #BloodySunday50 commemoration in Derry
#BloodySunday 🇬🇧🇮🇪
Now it’s the turn of the more radical, antagonist, political demonstration, which several relatives of the victims didn’t want to be part of. Palestinian and Cuban flags, banners for Assange, paramilitary uniforms and flutes everywhere.

This was quite powerful yesterday.

Yesterday, I interviewed for @repubblica the celebrated American novelist John Grisham. For the first time, Grisham revealed that Donald Trump has split his family and that he and his Trump-supporting siblings barely talked anymore. A thread 🧵 Image
1 / Grisham: "I have friends who voted for Trump. I have siblings who voted for Trump, and this is what Trump has done to our country. A lot of families have split up. Including my family, a lot of friends have stopped speaking frankly - I have some Republican friends - because we never talk about politics in this country. You only bring up politics with somebody if you live with somebody on your side. You know you never because things are so toxic, almost to the point of violence, either you love Trump, or you hate Trump, and there's no in-between".
2 / Grisham: "My sister in England, we're very close. We have the same politics. The rest of the family, if they call, I would talk to them. If I call them, they would talk. But we haven't talked much recently. I think it's all because of politics. [...] Yeah, we used to talk about politics. We stopped years ago because things got kind of rough, and then along came Trump, and you can't even bring it up now because it's very toxic".

🧵Breve storia triste. Giusto per farvi capire in che mani stiamo su X. E quanto pericolosa sia diventata questa piattaforma.
1) Ashlea Simon, co-leader del partito di estrema destra britannico "Britain First", stamani twitta una fake news. Un fotomontaggio di un falso articolo del Telegraph, mai esistito, che parla di deportazioni alle Falklands degli arrestati dei riots di questi giorni...Image
2) @elonmusk, l'uomo più ricco del mondo e padre padrone del social più influente al mondo, riprende la fake news e la dà in pasto ai suoi quasi 200 milioni di follower, con il messaggio "Detainment Camps".... Image
@elonmusk 3) In soltanto 15 minuti, Musk fa totalizzare a questa bufala vergognosa almeno un milione di views, grazie alla sua condivisione (e approvazione).

NEW. A couple of weeks ago, I interviewed Nigel Farage - here is the Italian version, but I had no time to write an English one:

Among other things, we also talked about Russia and Ukraine - and Meloni!

Here is what he told me (in English) 🧵repubblica.it/venerdi/2024/0…
1. Do you really think that Donald Trump, as he says, can stop the war in Ukraine in 24 hours?

NF: “This is how Trump operates: he makes big claims. What he's saying is that he will get Putin and Zelensky together for a peace negotiation. Now, it might fail. It might fail, but he will at least attempt to do that. Whereas, at the moment, the West seems to think that Ukraine is going to win. Well, however many weapons we give Ukraine, Russia isn't going to give in and there is a danger this war goes on for over five years. A genuine danger. It’s a little bit like the Italian battles on the Isonzo. Endless, endless, endless war… So look, Trump may fail with that. But I do see him as a peacemaker, the first American president in several that didn't launch any new wars. I think this is why he's important. And for Europe, you know, Trump is making NATO stronger by telling NATO members they got to pay their 2% and quite right, too.”
2. So do you think that Trump, with his remarks on NATO, is literally provoking the opposite effect, making NATO stronger?

NF: “Yeah, I think Stoltenberg loves Trump, because he makes people spend more. Trump said to me: “I’m 100% behind NATO provided everybody plays fair””

Ahead of Keir Starmer's major speech today, I interviewed veteran Labour MP Jon Cruddas @JonCruddas_1 in @repubblica about his new book “A Century of Labour” (Polity Books).

Cruddas explains to me why he "fears that Labour will have no mandate for change once in government", but also his concerns about "the lack of independent thought in the party".

Moreover, despite his great achievements so far, "Starmer remains quite an elusive political character" and Cruddas tells why the Labour Party "could be destroyed by victory" after the 2024 election. 🧵 FULL INTERVIEW HERE 👉repubblica.it/esteri/2024/01…Image
1. Cruddas praises the words of his leader Keir Starmer, because “it's quite a good, ethical case to make in terms of public standards in public life. There’s only been three Labour Prime Ministers who won power at general election in 100 years and the possibility of Starmer becoming the fourth Labour Prime Minister is a phenomenal development. Objectively that's something that should be recognised”.

However, Cruddas stresses, “The journey is not complete, and I don't think anyone should assume that the election is done and dusted”.
2. So far, Starmer has played a very cautious but productive political strategy, also thanks to the self-destructive instincts of the Tory Party. Is this position tenable? “I think it's insufficient”, Cruddas notes, “the danger is to win an election, which becomes a referendum on the incumbent government, but without a mandate for change. That seems to me to be a real concern, because the Labour will inherit a total mess”.

Qualche giorno fa sono andato a Portland, nel sud dell'Inghilterra, dove c'è la controversa chiatta dei migranti e richiedenti asilo, ieri evacuata perché è stato rinvenuto il batterio della legionella. Ecco quanto ho visto e sentito al porto e in città. Cose non incoraggianti. Image
1. La chiatta si trova qui, sull'isola di Portland, anche se in realtà una connessione con la Gran Bretagna c'è grazie all'unica strada verso Weymouth e Chesil Beach, infinito e malinconico istmo di spiaggia dello straordinario romanzo di Ian McEwan (terza foto, sullo sfondo).

2. La chiatta Bibby Stockholm, che dovrebbe ospitare 500 migranti e richiedenti asilo "illegali" per il governo, è stata attraccata nel porto privato e blindato Portland Port Ltd. La polizia ammette solo gli addetti ai lavori. Questo è il massimo che sono riuscito a vedere da lì.

BREAKING. Irish Foreign minister @simoncoveney tells me: "There is a real intent in London to try to resolve the #Brexit protocol issues through negotiation over the next few weeks and months. And I think the EU will respond to that generously. In fact, I know they will." 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇪
Coveney: "I think there is an agreement between the British and Irish Governments and certainly, I think there's a view within the British government now that an election at this time in Northern Ireland really serves no positive purpose. It would be a very polarising..."
"...election through the winter at a time when households are focusing on the cost of living at a time when businesses are under pressure. And so to push a potential election back into next year, to give some space for us to try to resolve some of the other issues."
