Hello and welcome to Netil Radio Weekly,
What a week. Sometimes it feels like we have a warp drive in our mothership. I just sent last week’s newsletter and here I am writing another one just a few seconds later.
No matter of speed or time travel, the moment is here - Shimmy will take over the editorial next week and write a few points about what is happening in Gaza right now and what we can do to support those who need it. Make sure you don’t miss it.
Speaking of politics - from time to time, I will link you to interesting investigations and opinions focused on one of the biggest and very real problem this world (especially this country) has right now - corruption and how it goes hand in hand with dark money of organised crime, various regimes, what is the connection with UK’s brexit, or what was missing in Queen’s speech... No worries I will be linking serious journalism not conspiracies. I leave those for facebook users - starting next week.
As the “table service techno” (or disco) setting in venues across the city is in full swing, why wouldn’t we join with no techno and no disco, but nice music to soundtrack your brunch? Let’s hope for dry weather this Saturday. Our first trip outside the mothership is happening this weekend at Number 90 as a part of their 7th Birthday celebration. Last change to grab your table here!
Three winners of something Tote-ally useful and pretty - Alice, Lucy and Hugo will receive their presents this week - WooH Well done! Keep an eye out for our occasional interactions to win nice things.
Stay connected,
Miro
