Coroner는 Troubles 기간 중 Belfast에서 발생한 사건으로 사망한 민간인 5명 중 누구도 총격의 대상이 되어서는 안 되었다고 말했습니다.
1972년 Northern Ireland에서 민간인 5명을 사살할 당시 British army 군인들이 “통제력을 잃었으며” “합리적이지 않은” 무력을 사용했다고 inquest 판사가 판결했습니다.
1972년 7월 9일 서부 Belfast의 Springhill과 Westrock 지역에서 총격이 가해졌을 당시 희생자 중 4명(10대 2명, 6남매의 아버지, 가톨릭 신부)은 아무런 위험이 되지 않았다고 Mr Justice Scoffield 판사는 목요일에 밝혔습니다.

2022년, Aneil Karia는 Riz Ahmed가 주연을 맡은 단편 영화로 Academy Award를 수상했습니다. 이제 그는 Jack Lowden 및 예상치 못한 온라인 플랫폼의 도움을 받아 Reform 스타일의 의원 후보들을 날카롭게 풍자하고 있습니다. 일부 영화 제작자들은 자신의 작품에 대해 비현실적인 기대를 품기도 하지만, Aneil Karia는 그중 한 명이 아닙니다. 그는 자신의 새 영화 Vote Gavin Lyle에 대해 “이 영화가 정부를 무너뜨릴 것이라고 생각할 정도로 망상에 빠져 있지는 않습니다”라고 말하면서도, “하지만 혹시 모르죠, 정말 그렇게 될지도요”라고 덧붙입니다. 재미있고 영리하며 뛰어난 연기가 돋보이는, 작지만 완벽한 구성의 풍자극 Vote Gavin Lyle은 Jack Lowden이 잉글랜드 중부의 가상 선거구 Fletcham and Wold의 Reform 스타일 의원 후보 지망생을 연기합니다. 단 16분 길이의 이 영화는 극우의 사고방식을 완전히 꿰뚫어 봅니다. 소수자를 비하하고 국기를 흔드는 거리의 폭력배가 아니라, 해당 진영의 지도부를 장악하고 있는 더 영리하고 유창한 Farageists를 겨냥합니다. 영화의 대미를 장식하는 내용을 미리 밝힐 수는 없지만, 중심 인물에 대한 공감과 심지어 동정적인 시선도 담겨 있습니다. Karia는 다음과 같이 말합니다. “극우 정치인, 시의원, 후보자 등 그들이 누가 되었든 그저 그들이 얼마나 나쁜 놈들인지를 보여주는 것이 흥미롭거나 유용하다고 생각하지 않습니다. 제가 그들에게서 인상 깊게 느낀 점은 그들 역시 우리처럼 취약하고 겁에 질려 있다는 사실입니다. Continue reading...

US vice-president defends pre-election visit to Hungary with fresh barbs against EU in first comments since Orbán’s lossHungarian election winner Péter Magyar has been invited to meet with the Hungarian president, Tamás Sulyok, on Wednesday to discuss the government-formation process following the stunning win over Viktor Orbán in Sunday’s election.The meeting could be a bit awkward, given Magyar’s repeated calls for Sulyok, an Orbán loyalist, to resign from the office.“He’s one of the few European leaders we’ve seen who’s been willing to stand up to the bureaucracy in Brussels that has been very, very bad for the United States. So for example, when you see a European bureaucrat go after an American company, sometimes the only vote ‘no,’ the only vote to protect that American interest, has been Viktor Orbán.”“I think that his legacy in Hungary is transformational, 16 years, fundamentally changing that country.” Continue reading...

The phrase should evoke optimism, positive expectations about the future, trust and belonging. That seems almost out of reach in a chaotic worldOne term has already become the well-intentioned weasel word of 2026: “social cohesion”. A phrase that can be dropped into speeches, inquiries and legislation, its meaning shape-shifts depending on the audience. Is it about “glue” or the rule of law? About community resilience or countering fear? Does it mean finding places of real exchange, or shutting up and getting on?Although it has been in the political lexicon for years, the terror attack that targeted Jewish people celebrating Hanukah in Bondi last December brought social cohesion to the fore as an urgent problem to solve.

• The Trump administration is using Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act to investigate foreign factory capacity and forced labor, aiming to offset $1.6 trillion in tariff revenue lost due to a Supreme Court ruling on February 20.
• Public hearings are scheduled for May 5 on factory capacity and April 28 on forced labor, with the goal to complete probes before the current 10% import tariffs expire in 150 days.
• Trump imposed a temporary 10% tariff on all imports post-ruling, plans to raise it to 15%, but faces challenges from two dozen states; remaining tariffs on China, Canada, steel, lumber, and cars expected to yield $668 billion over a decade.
