Pope Leo XIV has turned his call for solidarity with Ukraine into action: the Vatican, via the Dicastery for the Service of Charity led by Cardinal Krajewski, delivered 80 electricity generators, thousands of medicine packs (antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, melatonin & more), and food supplies to Fastiv and Kyiv.

Zack Polanski, "Palantir.. £240 million contract last month" "That was lobbied by Global Counsel which is Peter Mandelson's lobbying group" "Alongside Wes Streeting the Health Secretary, close friend of Peter Mandelson" "I've written to the Health Secretary today to say we have to break that contract" "The idea that a defence company from the US has its fingerprints all over our healthcare system, alongside Peter Mandelson" "It's a whole range of questions that need answers urgently"
