There are not enough words to do justice to the great friend and colleague we have lost. Curious, imaginative, kind, a personification of journalistic rigour and integrity. Massive 40k fan. Many of us have achieved things we would not have even tried without him. RIP.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our colleague, David Knowles. David was a talented journalist and a much-loved friend and a colleague. He will be greatly missed.

Experimental filmed episode of battlelines. And yes I know what a battleship is and why I should have said warships.

Do Naval officers all wish they were Jack Aubrey? Former Royal Navy commander @TomSharpe134 on really important questions like that, as well as some stuff about the US Navy, China, and World War Three.

America cuts arms to Ukraine, then Vladimir Putin "disappoints" Donald Trump and launches an enormous strike on Kyiv. So much for peace through strength

Had the privilege of reading the remarkable latest from @AndreiSoldatov and @irinaborogan. If you lived in Moscow in those years it will be painfully close to the bone. If not, it will tell you a lot about how Russia got to where it is now. Buy. Read.

Apparently Iran still has 400kg of 60% abv Uranium single malt stashed in the kitchen cupboard. This is how it could still build a bomb. Maybe.
