@itvnews This is a poor attempt at trying to appear they are helping pet owners. Sort out the extortionate vet fees & ensure the insurance companies provide sufficient cover that actually pays out fully when you need to claim, not caps that don’t reflect market prices. That would help!

Vets will be legally bound to cap prescription fees and publish price lists among new measures which will start coming into force later this year.
Peter Ruddick had more details on #BBCBreakfast about the findings from the watchdog that has been investigating the soaring costs of looking after pets

Kharkiv. Right now.
A russian-iranian Shahed hits a dormitory. Fire. Evacuations underway.
When it’s Dubai, the world is outraged.
When it’s Kharkiv, the world scrolls past.
Ukrainian lives are not worth less. Our lives are not cheaper.

Ian McKellen reads a poem called The First Letter to the Corinthians.
It was written by Artur Dron, Ukrainian Defender, writer, poet.
Please listen to it. These words are powerful and true.
"Love digs trenches and lives in them, gnawing on ice from a hacked up plastic bottle. When it suffers thirst at minus 20, love goes out on combat duty, enters firing positions with hernias, fever, prostatitis, with vast concussions, asthma, and allergies, with a high probability of not making it back.
And sometimes love closes its friends' eyes, wraps them in sleeping bags, and carries them away. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease.
Where there are tongues, they will be still. Where there is knowledge, it will pass away. Because sometimes when the shelling ceases, friends close love's eyes, wrap it in sleeping bags, and carry it away.
And then it passes on to the living."
(I've quoted my post with another essay by Artur Dron. If you haven't already, I strongly recommend that one, as well.)

I’d like to share with you an excerpt from the book "Hemingway Knows Nothing" by Ukrainian Defender, poet, writer Artur Dron. Artur Dron is 24 years old and has defended Ukraine for over three years. Recently, he published a collection of essays called "Hemingway Knows Nothing" - his reflections about war, faith, his brothers-in-arms, life and death. This book made a very strong impression on me, so I've subtitled a video of Artur Dron reading one of the essays himself for you. It's a longer one, but I do think it is worth watching. This essay is called Trench God and in it, Artur reflects on faith during the war. "It’s easy to blame wars on God - after all, among all of us, He’s the only one who’s almighty. But it wasn’t God who drove tanks into Northern Saltivka in Kharkiv. It wasn’t God who sent a bullet into Tourist’s chest. It wasn’t God who shelled hundreds of churches in eastern Ukraine. It wasn’t God who destroyed Bakhmut and Mariupol. People did that. About 143 million of them. Russians. They made the choice to destroy Ukrainians. They crossed Ukraine’s borders with their military equipment. They kill our people and destroy our homes. Every war is started and waged by people. This one - by Russians. This is not a divine test, not a trial of national maturity, or any of those things people say. It is a crime - against life, against nature, against humanity, against God Himself. The consequence of someone’s choice to kill and steal. War is the opposite of God. So where is He, when such horrors are happening to us? With us. Inside the horror. In the buildings of Saltivka. In Tourist. God is in the wounded, the tortured, the raped, the traumatized. In the persecuted, the missing, the imprisoned. In every innocent killed, executed, shot. In the fallen on the battlefield. In all who have made the hardest choice of our time - not to flee, not to hide, not to surrender, not to disappear - but to defend life."

Ukrainian Defenders steadily take out Russian air defense systems. They are worth millions of dollars and are hard to replace.
On the night of February 24, Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces struck several Russian military systems in Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions, as well as in occupied Crimea:
▪️ BM-27 Uragan MLRS;
▪️ Buk-M1 SAM system;
▪️ Pantsir-S1 air defense system;
▪️ Malakhit radar.
Glory!

During the meeting with the Prime Minister of Croatia, @AndrejPlenkovic, we discussed energy cooperation. Croatia is already transferring equipment for the needs of Ukrainian energy companies, and we appreciate its readiness to continue helping restore Ukraine’s energy sector.
We also discussed the steps necessary for Ukraine’s EU accession and the joint actions of all European partners. I also informed the Prime Minister about the trilateral meetings in Geneva and preparations for the next negotiations.
I thank Andrej for this visit and for the fact that Croatia has been standing with Ukrainians and helping throughout these years. Thank you for participation in the PURL initiative and for preparing a new defense package.

Over a dozen European leaders came to Kyiv on the fourth anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion — von der Leyen, Costa, Finland's President Stubb, and leaders of Denmark, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Norway, Croatia, and Sweden.
Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal took them to a power plant that used to heat half a million people. Russia hit it 13 times — nine in the last six months. In January, a strike knocked out electricity. In early February, five ballistic missiles stopped heat generation. Over 1,100 apartment buildings, 118 schools and kindergartens, and 18 hospitals went cold.
"After every strike — repairs, often under threat of repeat attacks," Shmyhal wrote. Over 40 countries now support Ukraine's energy sector, with about €600 mn mobilized this year.

The U.S. administration did not send a single representative to the official commemoration events marking the anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, nor did it issue a single word through its embassy in Kyiv -- not even a standard diplomatic boilerplate.
This is all just tragic at this point.

There is nothing normal about what’s happening to Ukraine, and there never was. Four years of horror must not be normalised. Please, wherever you are, if you commemorate this day – be angry. Act.

Day 1462. Getting my morning coffee in the field in Donbas.
4 years of the full-scale invasion, 12 years since Russia invaded Ukraine, and hundreds of years of warfare.
We will drink our coffee and keep kicking Russian ass, to save our homes.

The Poles know that in 1939 the Russians made an agreement with Hitler to split Poland up between them
Later RUSSIA put down uprisings in Hungary and Prague
The Eastern Europeans know all about RUSSIA
Kate from Kharkiv@BohuslavskaKate
Sikorski on Hungary: "The thing that shocks me fundamentally is that while Ukraine is defending itself against the might of the Russian army, Hungarians used to understand what it’s like. Budapest was invaded twice in the 20th century, once by the Red Army. I would have expected a much greater feeling of solidarity from Hungary for Ukraine. Instead, with the help of state propaganda and private media controlled by the government, the ruling party managed to create a climate of hostility towards the victim of aggression, and now it’s trying to exploit that in the general election. It’s quite shocking."

Collins: ''So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?''
Vance: ''Yes''
Collins: ''Ok, I'm just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6th''
