  • The EU, USA and UK will want to find any way to take down Spain’s government since it has shown itself to be genuinely left-wing and governing for the people not the billionaires. Internationally, Spain has stood out lately in holding sane positions that cast a stark light on the corruption and deceitfulness of neoliberals elsewhere. Anyway, that’s to say that we should read criticisms like this of Spain with that background in mind.








  • Air India has offered an interim compensation payment to Mr Ramesh of £21,500, which has been accepted, but his advisers say this is not enough to meet his immediate needs.

    The family fishing business in Diu in India, which Mr Ramesh ran with his brother before the crash, has since collasped, his advisers said.

    Spokesman for the family Mr Seiger said they had invited Air India for a meeting on three occasions, and all three were either “ignored or turned down”.

    The media interviews were the team’s way of reissuing that appeal for the fourth time, he said.

    Mr Seiger added: "It’s appalling that we are having to sit here today and putting him [Viswashkumar] through this.

    "The people who should be sitting here today are the executives of Air India, the people responsible for trying to put things right.

    “Please come and sit down with us so that we can work through this together to try and alleviate some of this suffering.”

    Poor guy. It sounds like he’s really struggling. Air India needs to do right by him and pay him enough for some good mental and physical care. The amount they have paid him isn’t nearly enough, as he could have lifelong problems from the crash.

    For now, Android is the best compromise between functionality and openness that’s suitable for daily use, especially GrapheneOS. Hopefully some of the Linux alternatives will develop to that point soon, but by all accounts they’re not there yet. So it’s worth fighting to keep what we have until we can use something more open.
