  6. "Bunker mentality: the man who built Albania's underground Stalinist city" Got wind of this story when I was in Tirana few weeks ago. Such a fascinating insight into the paranoia of Hoxha's Albania.

  8. Gotta hand it to British government. First they ruthless abuse media conventions to spread disinformation before and during general election campaign, then they gaslight journalists. And we all rise fulminate. Then rinse and repeat. Proper 51st state

    Iowa has set a worrisome precedent for a disturbing reality: this cycle, misinformation just as likely to come from inside the US as from outside. It began with Judicial Watch claim on IA voter registration, rejected by GOP Sec of State but widely circulated in right-wing. 1/

    20 per cent of Irish revenue comes from the corporate tax sector. This is enormous. It is one of the clearest indicators you'll find that a country is a tax haven. Tax haven money will dry up! Any party pledging to cut taxes is playing with fire.

    In Ireland, started a very substantial push on Facebook ads a couple of days ago (screenshot from the 2nd). Pro-rated, €9,300 a day is more than any UK party spent in a single day during the 2019 election.
