Francis's editorial statements on the French election are somewhat inaccurate, particularly his statements about the vote projections. All of the vote projections I've seen indicate that it's very unlikely that RN will win a controlling majority, and they don't even take extensive plans for tactical voting into consideration. Moreover, the RN's leader says he will not form a minority gov't. The projections are that RN will fall short of 289 majority, with a projected total of 230 to 280 seats (again, these projections don't take probable tactical voting into effect). In addition, Frances only briefly mentioned (i.e., glossed over) tactical voting, and didn't mention the very significant fact that in 200 of 577 districts, either the Centrist or Left-leaning candidate has taken their name off the ballot to help the other win over RN candidate. It now appears that, with tactical voting, the most likely outcome may be a coalition gov't led by Macron's party and the Left-leaning bloc, with perhaps some support from Les Republicains. The next most likely outcome is probably a hung parliament, and the third possibility would be a surprise majority win by RN.

@Francis, what are the "other reports of a similar nature"?

Your guest called anti-fascist armed resistance in former Yugoslavia 'Serbian partisans'. Absolutely wrong, they were Yugoslav Partisans lead by half Croat half Slovene.

Ooh, the Telegraph is softening up... Far Right is now Hard Right! what's next? soft right, then right, and then just plain old center right? So, Far Right is no Longer just anything Right of extreme left.

What people can buy this days is beyond me

Where do I find the end notes to get the report?

An extension of my previous post. A wonderful read on the British and American birthing into partisanship and espionage is the book, “A Woman of No Importance.” Virginia Hall is as an exceptional woman who accomplished so much for her love of France, and did it on one f@$&!/# leg! Her brilliance shines through to this day and age. If she were alive, she’d be in the thick of it in occupied Ukraine.

Inspiring

Another source says they are investigating Hiw they can adjust to effectively interrupt the electronics in flight.

Excellent. Tolmie, Victoria, Australia.

Well said Jade regarding Labour's stance on Ukraine. Let us not politicise this important issue!!

These episodes are brilliant. Thanks to all involved - it’s greatly appreciated. ❤

This is all very frightening, Trump is now likely to become King, Orban head of the EU, and Russia leading the UN. If there was a hole into which I could crawl I would. Thanks to this pod there is still hope for decency and integrity.

The media is calling Le Pen's recent success as a "far right" victory, which isn't surprising given that, on average, the media calls the right "far right" five times more often than it calls the left "far left". (I discovered this disparity by searching Google for the exact phrase "far right" and then for the exact phrase "far left". The former returned 151 million results whereas the latter returned 30 million -- and 151M divided by 30M equals 5.03.)

Thanks so much for creating and sharing this informative video. Great job. Keep it up. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

No more NATO wars.

Stop this madness

all provisions of the Ukrainian Constitution guaranteeing freedom of political activity and prohibition of censorship, as well as the use of the Russian language, the right to freedom of worldview and religion, the right to freedom of thought and expression have been violated in Ukraine

Venezuela welcomed the arrival of the Russian Northern Fleet's naval strike group to its national waters, Jose Manuel Suarez, mayor of the Vargas municipality in La Guaira state told RIA Novosti on Wednesday. "The visit of this Russian frigate and all its personnel carries a message of peace, harmony and protection, because we are the people defending our beloved Motherland, and it is for the whole world," Suarez added. On Tuesday, the Russian fleet, comprising the Yasen-M-class guided missile nuclear submarine Kazan, the frigate Admiral Gorshkov, the supply tanker Akademik Pashin, and the rescue tug Nikolai Chiker, entered the port of La Guaira as part of their long-distance voyage. The navy ships had previously stopped in Cuban territorial waters, situated just 90 miles away from the United States.

A GREAT AND CREDIBLE CHANNEL THKS

Soundes like the the Ukraines should be on the Palistians side

indeed ukraine keep winning on cartoon network 🤗

The Telegraph - "Ukraine to be told it is too corrupt to join Nato" 🤣

My daily listen Hunter Valley NSW Australia

Russian Defense Minister Andrey Belousov accused on Wednesday the West of purposefully dragging out the conflict in Ukraine. Belousov stated that Washington and its allies "prepared and provoked the Ukrainian crisis" and are now responsible for deliberately prolonging the war. Furthermore, Belousov said Western countries "in every possible way condone the interim government of Ukraine in the widespread imposition of Nazism in its most acute manifestations." Andrey Belousov was appointed the new Russian Defense Minister in May this year, succeeding Sergey Shoygu in the post the latter had held for many years. Earlier in the day, Belousov was elected chairman of the Council of Defense Ministers of CIS countries and the decision was unanimously approved at the meeting held in Minsk, the capital of Belarus.

Sup bois

Why is Zelensky’s propaganda taken as fact by The Telegraph?

Mr Zelensky said that Russia is currently losing 6x as many soldiers as Ukraine. Propoganda, if it is to be effective, needs to be credible.

Explosions have rocked the Kiev-controlled city of Kherson, Ukrainian media outlets reported. No other details were disclosed. Earlier, air raid sirens went off in the Kiev-controlled part of the Kherson Region. Alexander Prokudin, head of the Ukrainian-installed regional military administration, said that a critical infrastructure facility had been damaged. A gas pipeline also suffered damage.

Oxford😂😂😂!! The bourgeois madame teaching us resistance! I love English humor! 😅😅🎉🎉😂😂

Slava ukraini

Russia will complete the special military operation in the autumn of 2024. Deputy head of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the General Staff, Apti Alaudinov, said on Channel One that Kyiv also understands that the armed confrontation between Russia and Ukraine is nearing its end. In early June, Alaudinov said that Russia would win the special military operation in Ukraine by the end of 2024. Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the conflict in Ukraine would end immediately after the cessation of arms supplies to Kyiv.

This woman is grating

Don't forget the influence of foreign soldiers who have been in Ukraine and can tell the people at home what they have experienced in the Russian army and as a POW in Ukraine

one would say it's terrrorism

I heard. Russia was losing over a billion men a day.

That is all AFU is now; resistance fighters. RU pulverizing their regular army formations so completely they using Mitsubishi pickup trucks as MLRS, and Toyota minivans as personnel carriers.

Biden looks fit enough to me….👍👍

Zelensky told us 31,000 KIA. Now he tells us that Ukranian losses are 1/6 of Russian?

US National poll shows Biden lift against Trump post-debate.

Russia is going down ,just won’t admit it.

Jade McGlynn is always worth paying attention to.

There is no significant resistance because anyone who did not want to become a Russian citizen has left for the Kiev side of the front line long ago. In short, this interview is just propaganda.

According to preliminary reports from the front, the Russian army took control of the Kanal district in the city of Chasov Yar. The Paratroopers of the 98th airborne brigade destroyed the last Ukrainian military positions in the multistory buildings in the western part of the district. The Ukrainian garrison in Kanal was suppressed and destroyed. According to some reports from the battlefield, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are still present in some buildings on the western outskirts; but the further defense of the remaining positions is senseless. Russian flags are waving on the ruins of the last destroyed building in the district. Earlier, the Ukrainian military command began withdrawing the remaining forces to the main part of the city across the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal. Amid the heavy battles on the streets of the Kanal district, the Russian army mopped up the forest area north of the district and took control of the southern part of the village of Kalinovka. Some Ukrainian forces are reportedly still present in the southern forests near the road between the settlements.

Don nickels love rocket dongs😅

A Moscow court on Tuesday issued an arrest warrant of former Ukraine's Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman, former Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin, former Finance Minister Oleksandr Shlapak, and head of Western Operational Command of Ukraine's Ground Forces Ihor Dovhan, charging the four individuals with the "use of prohibited means and methods of warfare." Last month, the Basmanny District Court arrested in absentia the former head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Information Policy, Yuriy Stets, and the former Minister of Justice Pavlo Petrenko on the same charges. In April, Russia's Investigative Committee charged Groysman, Klimkin, and Stets for their involvement in Ukraine's military response to Russia's operation in Donbass in 2014. In May, the Russian Interior Ministry expanded its wanted list to include both current and former Ukrainian presidents, Volodymyr Zelensky, and Petro Poroshenko. However, the criminal charges have not been specified.

What US president has been fit for office? it's almost assumed at this point that being unfit is a prerequisite. Bush senior was the last competent one
