Greenlandic Politician Tillie Martinussen: We do not want to be rich like Americans. Look how greedy they are, even trying to invade their friends. Even if there are minerals and oil under our land—and they are worth far more—we still would not sell ourselves. We know what…

US threats against Greenland is affecting everyday life. This morning, @OJoelsen took me to a service at Hans Egede Church in Nuuk. As we sang the final hymn, several members of the congregation were visibly moved. Orla translated and explained: A house built on rock cannot…

Wandering our heartland I gathered a small constellation: snowdrop, primrose, daisy, aconite, dead-nettle, hazel, alder, cow parsley. Arranged in a circle, they formed a medicine wheel — not of knowing, but of noticing. Small wonders, gathered by noticing. #WildflowerHour

…and I would ask my former colleague Tony Blair not to sit in a board appointed by an America President who is threatening his own European Allies including the UK !
Starmer has explicitly and publicly criticised Donald Trump for the first time (as per below). This is a significant moment. Starmer: “Our position on Greenland is very clear – it is part of the Kingdom of Denmark and its future is a matter for the Greenlanders and the Danes.…
Macron to Trump: "No intimidation nor threat will influence us, neither in Ukraine, nor in Greenland, nor anywhere else in the world when we are confronted with such situations. Tariff threats are unacceptable and have no place in this context. Europeans will respond to them…
