Someone in the discussion group asked me about Sudan, so I went through my downloaded Facebook posts (I closed my account 3 years ago), to find what I had written previously. Looking back over it now, I would not change anything I said then.

It should be noted that Anwar has long said that he would repeal the sedition act and the restrictive laws around media offences...now he is utilising those same laws

Food theft has skyrocketed across Europe. It is most often done by people who suffer most from the increase in electricity and fuel bills: Pensioners, the disabled, students. In France, food prices rose by 14.5%; Germany, 22%. Baltic countries; by 25-30%. https://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2023/03/26/l-inflation-provoque-une-flambee-des-vols-de-nourriture-dans-les-magasins-partout-en-europe_6167008_3234.html

En Europe, l’inflation provoque une flambée des vols de nourriture dans les magasins
De la Grèce au Royaume-Uni, en passant par la France, ces vols ont fait un bond, conséquence de la hausse des prix, mais aussi du développement des caisses automatiques. Face au phénomène, les supermarchés s’équipent.

🇰🇪 Protests in Kenya amid manifestations ban
Kenyan police on Monday fired teargas and a water cannon at stone-throwing supporters of opposition leader Raila Odinga during the second consecutive week of protests against the government and high food prices.
The clashes broke out as Odinga's convoy passed through a neighbourhood in the capital Nairobi. Hundreds of supporters had gathered around the convoy shouting "Ruto must go," in reference to President William Ruto.
Odinga, who lost to Ruto in last August's election, is seeking to channel frustrations about inflation into a durable movement against the president. He has vowed to press ahead with protests every Monday and Thursday, despite police banning the demonstrations.
In separate incidents on Monday, unidentified people vandalised a property belonging to Odinga's family and another owned by former president Uhuru Kenyatta, who supported Odinga in last year's election.
