En ce moment, une centaine de CRS sont mobilisés pour détruire et expulser les campements aux alentours de Dunkerque. Cette opération de communication vient seulement aggraver les souffrances des centaines de femmes, hommes et enfants sur place.

If magazines still existed I'd pitch a story about the acute shortage of medicines in southern Europe and how EU pharma seems to have gotten away with blaming it all on India, China, and Russia. Oh well.

REVEALED: First ever footage of a refugee being shot at an EU border @LHReports has obtained this shocking video where European border guards shoot a young Syrian refugee w/live ammunition at the Bulgaria-Turkey border THREAD

Personally I'm looking forward to politicians having to tell us things in person again.

"At 3:30 a passenger explains he is literally 'in the water.' The [French] rescue service operator responds: 'Yes, but you are in English waters.'" Chilling transcription of the distress calls here. Neither UK nor French authorities launched rescues. 27 people died

@sallydaviesjr @shedworking Director/a de Plantel is "director of studies" or head teacher. The #2 slot under the Principal. My mother was a school principal for years. Below her was the head teacher. Nearly certain Principal is American for Headmaster.

@SoJannessari Sorry not sorry.

I love how this wildlife map @notzachcampbell just sent me looks like a news update from a runoff election between two bears.
