Gaslit Nation is excited to announce a new show, for our subscribers, featuring Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman, a researcher on investigative journalist Craig Unger's bestselling books House of Trump, House of Putin and American Kompromat. “The oligarchs see the people like the sh*t they grow their money in.” That's what Andrea heard while living in Ukraine in 2006, and it perfectly captures the crisis the world faces today. Chaos weapon Donald Trump is a reality TV star of terror whose job is to destroy laws, regulations, and protections to enrich the shadowy elite profiting from global misery. They hide behind Trump. It's time to make them famous. Follow the Money will feature Andrea and Olga every week, exposing who's getting rich off Trump, Putin, and other merchants of chaos, and what can be done about it. Gen Z is rising up.

Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan has now been in jail for almost two years. He's currently serving a 14-year sentence on corruption charges he has always denied - and his wife Bushra is serving seven years. Khan and his party remain hugely popular in Pakistan and the case has roiled a country which Khan claims is living under an undeclared martial law. Khan's sons Kasim and Sulaiman join Piers Morgan in his London studio to share the appalling conditions their father is being forced to live in - and they say they are willing to risk being arrested to go to Pakistan in an effort to see him freed.

After traversing seven countries, and spending six years in camps here, Bushra & Mahmood just want a home to raise their family. On this week's episode I had the profound privilege of sitting down with Bushra Ahmed and Mahmood Abdu, a couple whose lives have been defined by a war that is still ongoing in Yemen. Their courage, endurance, and aspiration for their family's future drove them to leave everything behind and begin the journey to find a new home. Their story, spanning seven countries, is one of unimaginable hardship and enforced determination. Bushra and Mahmood fled Yemen in 2017 with their three young sons aged just 3, 6 and 9 at the time. The political unrest and increasing danger made their home untenable. Bushra, once employed by the US Embassy, faced life-threatening risks as tensions escalated. Mahmood had worked for Yemen's Ministry of Agriculture. Both had built stable, professional lives – lives that were upended due to war. Their journey from Yemen went via Oman, Malaysia, Iran, Turkey, Greece, Spain, Belgium, and finally, Luxembourg. In Iran they were living in forests at border with Turkey and had to climb mountains at night and walk, with their three young boys, for two weeks to the capital city of Ankara. There, they paid for a treacherous boat crossing to Kos, captained by someone who didn't know the way. On Kos, where they lived for six months in awful conditions, Mahmood built them a shelter. Finally, they reached Luxembourg in 2019. A new chapter. A place of peace. Another baby. They could not have envisaged still living in camps in 2025. A Hidden Struggle in the Heart of Europe Since arriving in Luxembourg, Bushra and Mahmood have been housed in various refugee camps. Six years later, they're still there. Currently, they live in two small rooms in a camp in Luxembourg City, sharing bathroom and kitchen facilities with five other families. And they pay for it – over €1,100 per month. Despite Luxembourg's wealth and reputation for high living standards, their search for a stable home seems insurmountable. Their teenage sons, now in school in Clervaux, spend four hours a day commuting to and from school. Bushra, works but her health has been deeply impacted by relentless stress. Mahmood, has to manage the travel logistics for the children and support their education, alongside learning French. They have filled out hundreds of housing applications – public and private. But the answer is always the same: too expensive, too large a family, or simply, no response at all. Their story is one of many – but one we rarely hear. Luxembourg's Deepening Housing Crisis To shed light on the broader context, I was joined by RTL's French-language housing journalist, Gaël Arellano. His reporting has laid bare the critical state of housing in Luxembourg. Why is renting so hard – and so expensive? It's a perfect storm: - Population growth vs. housing supply: Luxembourg needs to build around 6,000 new homes per year to keep up with demand. In the last two years, only 700–800 homes were built annually. - Collapse of new construction: Rising interest rates and stagnant prices have stalled new builds. - Pressure shift: As buying has become unaffordable, pressure has shifted to the rental market, pushing rents higher. - Discrimination: Gaël has spoken with real estate agents who confirm that some landlords openly discriminate – against nationalities, large families, even people with children. Though laws exist to cap rent or ensure fair treatment, enforcement is often absent or toothless. And for refugee families like Bushra and Mahmood's, who may not have perfect credit histories or high incomes, the barriers multiply. A Home, Not Just a House Despite all this, Bushra and Mahmood remain incredibly gracious and resilient. Their sons are doing their best in school and have many friends, but they crave a normal, stable home life. “They just want to invite their friends over. They want to feel normal.” They simply want what every parent wants: a stable home where their children can grow, dream, and belong. Luxembourg is their home now. So let's ask ourselves – and our community – what can be done? We know the housing situation in Luxembourg is extremely tough, but so much moreso for refugees who are living in limbo. Bushra and Mahmood's story is so deeply humbling. A family who simply want to start their life from scratch and a build a home for their family. https://play.rtl.lu/shows/fr/la-bulle-immo/episodes

Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for his involvement in the Al-Qadir Trust case, which is considered his most serious conviction to date. His wife, Bushra Bibi, has been sentenced to 7 years and both have been fined. The case revolves around the misuse of funds originally seized from Malik Riaz, a prominent Pakistani businessman, by British authorities for money laundering. In Episode 1590 of #CutTheClutter, ThePrint Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta looks at the Al Qadir Trust cas, key players, Khan's role along with his past convictions, and why he remains defiant as the GHQ goes after the former PM.

Bassam Aramin, Palestinian, and Rami Elhanan, Israeli, are members of The Parents Circle – Families Forum (PCFF), families whose lives have been upended due to tragedy.

'What is "British Culture?” I was born in the UK and have lived here for 40 years, and yet, as a British Asian person, I am constantly told “we are not integrating”. Not integrating into what culture exactly?' Bushra Shaikh runs a charity, is a business-owner and is also a writer and commentator. When she posted this question on social media, two million people viewed it, she received thousands of replies, but no clear definition of British Culture. Some respondents mentioned the food, while others defined it by quoting literature or history. But those answers were often just lists; of meals. books, names and dates. Is "culture" a synonym for race? How can British people of colour integrate, and what does that mean? Americans put their hands on their hearts, gaze at the stars and stripes and identify with freedom, while the French look to liberty, equality, and fraternity, but is there a British equivalent? Bushra speaks to Historians, cultural commentators, as well as both the UK's newest citizens, and people who can trace their British family roots back hundreds of years, to try to find out what British culture means to them.

Do you lead with Light and love? On of my very dear friends Michael Sahota asked a couple of REALLY powerful questions at the end of the Agile 2023 Keynote presentation given on July 26, 2023 by Bushra Amiwala. Her light was incredible but the wisdom shared my Michael was even more amazing! He acknowledged that current culture and a lack of education is leading us deeper and deeper into the "isms". He was quick to point out that sometimes the most impactful thing that you can do is stand by what you know to be true and let go of the isms. This is SUCH a profound statement. What can we do when we feel like the world is against us and how can we lead with light and love?
