1/ I’d like to tell you an #WW2 story close to my family’s heart. That of an incredible bear that was adopted by Polish soldiers in the Middle East and accompanied them during the war through Italy. His name was Wojtek. THREAD twitter.com/JanekLasocki/s…

I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but looks like the fantastic & one of its kind Bar Polski in Holborn has closed down. A special place & Polish institution in heart of London for 30 years, another everyday symbol of our #PolesinUK presence here - gone. Absolutely gutted.

@KasiaMadera @JakubKrupa In that case (Balham) the former management ended its lease. The 4 year old son was on stage last Sunday so definitely not closed (at least not atm) : )

@ViewFromTheQ Any idea why people this morning with queue cards 4300 were able to get Centre and No1 tickets? I thought there are only 1000 every morning..

Jess Philips is a committed and caring minister, and you, sir, are a toxic gonad. The UK is not your plaything, wealth doesn’t exempt you from international law, and owning X doesn’t give you license to poison the discourse of any country whose government you disagree with.

Jess Philips is a rape genocide apologist

After decades of weaponizing energy trade, fucking Putin is begging to ‘depoliticize’ energy trade and asking Poland to be ‘friends’ again

It’s not every day that an interview is interrupted by a Russian missile strike, but I guess I couldn’t have asked for a better illustration of the point I was trying to make. The Biden administration has shown little boldness in its dealings with countries helping Russia re-arm.
