From handing over the Chagos Islands to compensating Gerry Adams, Starmer's decisions owe more to human rights lawyers than sound politics. He needs to sack his chum Lord Hermer before he shipwrecks his Government.

Keir Starmer wants Britain to be both an "AI superpower" and a "clean energy superpower". He can't have it both ways, says Ben Pile. AI is hugely energy intensive and inconsistent with the path Net Zero is leading us down.

Diego Maradona has arrived in Cuba.

category international | miscellaneous | other press author Wednesday September 22, 2004 19:57author by iosaf = O As If = Sofia - Stand Strong Diego! Report this post to the editors

where he will continue drug therapy.

Diego arrived Monday in Cuba, home to his revered Fidel Castro, who has promised to care for the troubled footballer "as a son".

Diego last entered the news with his heartfelt messages of support to President Chavez in the recent right wing challenges to his administration in Venezuela.

He is reported in the global spanish speaking press as having spent his first days undergoing rigorous medical examinations and is in good condition.

Paraguay-
"this his last game for life"
http://www.abc.com.py/articulos.php?fec=2004-09-22&pid=135254&sec=8

Mexico-
"Argentine ambassador has confired that Diego is in good form". The Mexicans (under Bush ally Fox) and Cubans (under Castro who's face is tattooed on Diego's body) severed diplomatic relations earlier in 2004.
http://www.cronica.com.mx/nota.php?idc=145050

Venezuala-
"Diego hopes to break the habit"
http://www.eluniversal.com/2004/09/22/futb_art_22203A.shtml

New York City (which has a considerable hispanic community supports a weekly indymedia newspaper in spanish, as well as many commercial papers)
http://www.eldiariony.com/noticias/detail.aspx?section=26&desc=DEPORTES&id=993342

Chile-
"without promising anything Diego goes back to Cuba" Diego's last attempts at de-tox in surprisingly "hard drug free" Cuba sadly failed, and without doubt it proved difficult to convince Argentine president Kirchner to sanction the return of possibly the most gifted prodigy of the "beautiful game" alive.
And certainly a man who's extra-ordinary talents, deep faith in God and unwavering Socialist and Libertarian beliefs have impressed so many. And perhaps made his very human weaknesses and suffering all the more tragic and symbolic of the unrealting horror of the contemporary world where success so often only earns adiction, insecurity and alienation.

Finally the message which Diego sent to Chavez after he won the referendum.
