Sudan's fighting, the interests involved
Asserting that the fighting in Sudan is a
fight between proxies
of
rich Middle-Eastern powers over control of Sudan's resources.
I have a hunch that some of those powers are gangs rather than states.
Reportedly
Libyan General Haftar is allied
with one side in Sudan,
the militia that is fighting against the Sudanese army, and they are
backed by the United Arab Emirates and by Russia.
But I see no info about which powers back the Sudanese army.

Protesters, irascible thugs, UK
Overeager thugs arrested people for
the most minor and peaceful of protests
on the occasion of the proclamation of Charles III as king of the UK.
Paul Powlesland was threatened with arrest for holding up a blank
piece of paper, inviting comparisons with China.
Meanwhile, the UK is rapidly passing laws to repress any sort of
protest that inconveniences anyone.

copyright holders are pressing

Non-violent protester, years of prison, UK
A
Just Stop Oil protester has been sentenced
to 2.5 years in prison for
climbing a bridge and dropping a banner. Prison officials have threatened
to make his prison term extra painful if he talks with reporters.
The Tories are passing
additional repressive laws
to crush the
"selfish" protesters whose protests cause momentary annoyances.
Just imagine how annoying agricultural failure will be for everyone!

Urgent: a business-supremacy treaty to block
US citizens: call on negotiators to prioritize working people & the
planet in the
"Indo-Pacific Trade Deal."
This deal would be a business-supremacy treaty,
and almost certain would harm our freedom more or less. They give
big companies additional power to do harm to the rest of society.
Soon we will need to campaign to kill the treaty. Let's get ready now!
