America is bringing freedom. A new website from the State Department is about to make freedom of speech great again, and the checks notes Europeans aren't happy? Well, maybe when Emmanuel Macron says freedom of speech is BS, they should be worried. A Transport for London Public Service Announcement has been banned because it's racist. Let's find out exactly how it's racist. Simu Liu, famous Asian Canadian, has opinions about things. And those opinions are trash. What a piece of sh*t.

The government is seeking advice on adding a toll to the Auckland Harbour Bridge, to help pay for a second harbour crossing. Greater Auckland editor Matt Lowrie spoke to Corin Dann.

For review:1. The U.S. Air Force on Tuesday awarded Boeing a sole-source contract for newvGBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs , to replace the munitions used in last June's strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.2. Iran launched live-fire naval exercises in the Strait of Hormuz on Monday.The drill, called "Smart Control of the Strait of Hormuz," was led by the naval forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) under the supervision of IRGC Commander in Chief Maj. Gen. Mohammad Pakpour.3.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he had told U.S. President Donald Trump to make four key demands of Iran in any deal to avert military strikes against the Islamic regime in Tehran.- All enriched uranium must leave Iran.- Iran to have no enrichment capability.- Limits on the range of Iranian ballistic missiles (Range of 300km and under).- Dismantle support/infrastructure for Iranian militia proxies in the Region.4. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and his delegation left for the Swiss city after the first round of indirect talks took place in Oman last week. Oman will mediate the talks in Geneva, the IRNA state-run news agency reported on its Telegram channel.Mr. Araghchi is also expected to meet with his Swiss and Omani counterparts, as well as the director general of the U.N.'s atomic watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency.5. A Republican senator seen as close to US President Donald Trump suggested Monday that an American decision on potential military action against Iran was “weeks, not months” away and opined that it would be a “strategic victory” for the Islamic Republic if its supreme leader isn't toppled amid the current standoff.6. Lebanon's government says its army will have a four-month extendable period to implement phase two of the military's plan to disarm Hezbollah in south Lebanon.Phase two covers an area north of the Litani river.7. The Israel Defense Forces on Sunday evening said that it carried out an airstrike targeting members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group in eastern Lebanon, close to the Syrian border.8. A Ukrainian delegation was heading to Geneva on Monday for another round of U.S.-brokered talks with Russian officials, There was no anticipation of any significant progress on ending the war at the Tuesday-Wednesday meeting in Switzerland as both sides appear to be sticking to their negotiating positions on key issues.9. US Secretary of State Rubio sharply criticized the UN for having “virtually no role” in resolving conflicts, and called for global institutions to be reformed.“The United Nations still has tremendous potential to be a tool for good in the world,” he told the Munich conference.“But we cannot ignore that, today, on the most pressing matters before us, it has no answers and has played virtually no role,” he said.10. Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has announced his country is in talks with the United States to buy an additional four F-16 fighter jets on top of the 14 copies already ordered.11. Estonia's arms procurement agency has signed a contract with France and KNDS for the acquisition of 12 additional Caesar self-propelled howitzers.The newly ordered systems are scheduled for delivery later this year.12. The Pentagon, along with the Department of Energy, on Sunday airlifted a small nuclear reactor, the first such transportation as the Trump administration looks to quickly deploy nuclear power across the U.S.The Ward 250 is a 5 megawatt nuclear reactor that could potentially power roughly 5,000 homes, according to the Pentagon. 

The answer depends on whether you can afford it. Congestion charging is coming and that'll add to the cost if you need to drive for work. This is only a proposal, based on the original toll, inflation-adjusted, almost 70 years ago. The suggestion, nothing's hard and fast, comes from an Infrastructure Commission report. We know there'll be a toll to cross the new bridge, or tunnel, whichever gets built - the Government already told us that. What we know now is that the both the old and the new crossing will be tolled. So, there's no avoiding it. If you can avoid it, they don't collect the revenue they need to pay for the new one. Why $9? They reckon it's the sweet spot that will get enough people using it to make enough to pay for the new build, without scaring everybody off and, again, leaving it short on revenue. So basically, driving a car over the bridge becomes a luxury item. You'll either need to be a bit rich or as happens overseas, your employer will pay for your car or Ute or truck to cross. And what about everybody else? Well, when they build the new bridge, it'll have bus lanes and other public transport options that'll be cheaper. Most people, they reckon, will opt for public transport. Which is fine, so long as public transport suddenly becomes reliable and more linked-up and bus drivers aren't getting stabbed and bashed all the time. The other point here is, is $9 actually that much money in the scheme of things? People cross the harbour by ferry for about that price. But, there's a cap to how you pay overtime and you usually haven't got car running costs and petrol, etc. So, driving would become a premium option. The question then becomes, do you not build because $9? The answer is simple, of course you do. If we complain about the cost of building stuff and never build a thing, we will continue this death spiral we've been in. We need productivity growth and infrastructure and all those good things. They don't come from nowhere. They come from good, planed investment. What we need is good financial controls on the design and construction. We need a government doing the budget, rather than a gold-plated version. And we need that government to agree with the one that comes after it that this is a national interest project. Mess with the bridge and you mess us. Then just get on a build the thing. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

En février 2025, en pleine période de Maha Shivratri, le Premier ministre, le Dr Navin Ramgoolam, avait déjà annoncé son intention de durcir la législation contre les conducteurs sous l'emprise de l'alcool ou de la drogue. Un an plus tard, le 11 février 2026, dans un contexte similaire marqué par des accidents graves impliquant des pèlerins, le chef du gouvernement réitère son engagement et, cette fois, la mesure franchit une étape décisive. Le Conseil des ministres a finalement donné son aval. Il a été décidé que le ministère du Transport terrestre transmettra des instructions de rédaction au bureau de l'Attorney General afin d'amender la législation pour prévoir : la mise en fourrière des véhicules en cas de conduite sous l'influence de drogues et/ou d'alcool, ainsi que l'habilitation du Commissaire de police à faire une demande ex parte devant un juge en chambre pour la suspension immédiate du permis de conduire. S'agit-il d'une réelle solution pour endiguer le fléau sur nos routes ? Réagissant sur sa page Facebook, le ministre Osman Mahomed estime que cette nouvelle approche vise à renforcer la sécurité routière et à décourager fermement les comportements irresponsables. De son côté, l'expert en sécurité routière Barlen Munusami souligne la nécessité de mécanismes clairs, notamment dans les cas de véhicules appartenant à des entreprises ou à des compagnies de location, afin d'éviter que des tiers ne soient pénalisés pour une infraction commise par un conducteur. Pour lui, la mesure est pertinente, mais elle devra être solidement encadrée juridiquement afin d'éviter toute contestation constitutionnelle. Reste désormais une question centrale : cette décision, attendue depuis un an, permettra-t-elle réellement de freiner l'hécatombe sur nos routes ?

High rents, rising food costs and a perceived lack of opportunities are driving young people out of New Zealand. Last year, more people left than ever before. What can be done to improve living conditions and stop the loss of young talent? The current government has opened the question of Māori land rights in a quest to exploit New Zealand's natural resources. An attempt to overturn a historic treaty failed last year, but as New Zealand faces an election in the autumn, the issue will not go away. There is much to debate for Jonny Dymond and a panel of political leaders as they face questions from across the country.The Panel: Chris Bishop, MP, National Party and Minister for Housing, Transport and Infrastructure and Leader of the House.Ginny Andersen, MP, Labour Party's Spokeswoman on Jobs, Income, Police and Treaty of Waitangi negotiations.Shane Jones, MP, Deputy Leader of New Zealand First and Minister of Oceans and FisheriesMarama Davidson, MP, Co-leader of the Green party and Spokeswoman on Conservation, Child Poverty Reduction and Social investment.Producer: Charlie Taylor Sound engineers: Tim Heffer, Ian Mitchell and Joe Lawrence

Clare's Minister of State insists neither the Government nor Shannon Airport is "playing a role" in the deportation of people detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the US. Six flights chartered by ICE have refuelled at Shannon Airport since Donald Trump took office a year ago, with the latest stopping at the Clare base on Wednesday night. A recent investigation found that ICE used a private plane owned by a business associate of Donald Trump to deport eight Palestinian men who were "shackled" at the whists and ankles as they were flown through Shannon on the way to Tel Aviv from Arizona. Under international law, private aircraft and commercial charters don't have to seek authorisation from the Department of Transport for technical stops, and Tulla Fianna Fáil Minister of State Timmy Dooley says this means the law has been adhered to in these instances.

Au Pérou, malgré les interventions policières à répétition et malgré les dégâts considérables sur l'environnement qu'elle provoque, l'exploitation illégale de l'or se poursuit. Depuis plus de dix ans, le journaliste Manuel Calloquispe, correspondant de la presse nationale péruvienne dans le sud-est du pays en Amazonie, documente l'essor de l'orpaillage illégal et ses conséquences catastrophiques.   Dans cette région, on enregistre une pollution record au mercure et la déforestation fait rage. Elle est même visible sur Google maps ! Un travail qui a valu à Manuel Calloquispe des menaces, comme nous le raconte Raphaël Moran du service Environnement de RFI. « En mars 2025, j'ai publié un article sur un chef de gang, son nom et ses agissements. J'allais publier un second article en août lorsque j'ai reçu un appel. J'ai reconnu la voix d'Alver Carranza, le numéro deux du gang, et j'ai enregistré l'appel. Il disait qu'il allait m'arracher la tête si je continuais mes articles », raconte Manuel Calloquispe. L'enquête qu'il s'apprêtait à publier détaillait les guerres de gangs, en particulier l'ascencion d'Edison Fernandez Pérez, un chef mafieux déjà condamné à 15 ans de prison pour l'assassinat d'un défenseur de l'environnement dans le département de Madre de Dios. L'homme est aujourd'hui à la tête d'un système tentaculaire d'extorsions sous prétexte de protéger les orpailleurs du secteur de La Pampa en proie l'insécurité. « Au départ, il s'agissait de simples orpailleurs qui venaient du centre du Pérou, d'une région où l'on cultive la feuille de coca. Face à l'augmentation des vols et des agressions dont étaient victimes les orpailleurs, ils ont proposé leurs services en expliquant qu'ils avaient été gardes communautaires et qu'ils avaient l'expérience des armes. Un premier campement d'orpailleurs a accepté leur protection, puis d'autres. À présent, ils ont des armes. Ils sont plus de 80 et ils s'occupent de la sécurité des commerçants. Ils contrôlent le commerce de l'or et depuis 2023, ils pratiquent eux-mêmes l'orpaillage illégal ». L'enquête déplaît fortement au chef du gang qui commandite une tentative d'assassinat contre Manuel Calloquispe. Il se réfugie alors plusieurs mois dans la capitale péruvienne, Lima, à plus de 1 000 km de chez lui. Forbidden Story poursuit le travail de journalistes menacés ou assassinés, a repris le flambeau. Dans une enquête récente, ce collectif raconte la terreur des habitants de La Pampa, victimes d'extorsions. Malgré des dizaines d'interventions de l'armée, on comptabilise encore 5 000 équipements de dragage sur place. Le trafic continue de prospérer à cause de la flambée du cours de l'or qui dépasse les 4 200 euros l'once. L'orpaillage s'étend même sur la réserve amazonienne de Tambopata où l'armée a encore saisi, il y a quelques jours, des dizaines d'engins de dragage. Manuel Calloquispe, lui, est retourné travailler sur place malgré les menaces. « Je vis dans une maison équipée de caméras de surveillance. Il y a des policiers qui surveillent mes déplacements, j'ai un gilet pare-balles, un casque. (...) Parfois je refais du reportage, mais je fais attention à moi ». Le journaliste a également comptabilisé plus de 400 disparitions dans la région. Il craint qu'aux prochaines élections, des candidats financés par les gangs de l'orpaillage illégal n'accèdent aux responsabilités.   En Haïti, la PNH fait encore rêver En Haïti, la police qui a besoin d'effectifs plus importants, accélère le recrutement de policiers. Alors que près de 85% de la capitale, Port-au-Prince, est aujourd'hui contrôlée par les gangs, 4 000 nouveaux postes doivent être pourvus cette année (2026). Le processus de recrutement a déjà commencé et rencontre un franc succès auprès des jeunes, comme ont pu le constater nos envoyés spéciaux à Port-au-Prince, Justine Fontaine et Achim Lippold. Toujours en Haïti, comme chaque mois, nous sommes en ligne avec un journaliste du média en ligne Ayibopost. Junior Legrand nous parle de sa nouvelle enquête sur les fausses cartes d'identité qui sont massivement utilisées en ligne pour des cyberescroqueries, notamment sur des plateformes de paiement bien connues comme MonCash et NatCash. Officiellement, il y a des mécanismes de contrôle mais dans les faits, il n'y a aucun système d'identification des cartes d'identité sur ces deux sites.   À Cuba, l'émoi après l'arrestation de deux jeunes influenceurs Détenus depuis vendredi dernier (6 février 2026), dans une prison d'Holguin connue pour la violence des interrogatoires qui y sont pratiqués, Kamil Zayas et Ernesto Ricardo Medina sont poursuivis pour « propagande contre l'ordre constitutionnel » et « instigation à commettre des crimes », nous apprend le site 14yMedio. C'est « un nouveau coup contre la liberté d'expression à Cuba », s'insurge El Toque qui explique qui sont ces deux jeunes qui ne cherchent qu'à « parler aux Cubains ». Dans « une petite pièce tapissée de journaux de la presse d'État, un tableau noir usé et un vieux ventilateur qui ne sert plus qu'à symboliser le fait qu'à Cuba, les appareils électroménagers servent bien au-delà de leur durée de vie (...) Ernesto Ricardo Medina et Kamil Zayas ont passé des mois à tourner de courtes vidéos pour les réseaux sociaux du projet El4tico », raconte le site en ligne. « Avec un style décontracté et direct, ils exprimaient leurs opinions politiques et expliquaient des sujets liés à l'économie, à l'histoire et aux droits humains, jusqu'à ce que le régime décide qu'ils étaient trop visibles, trop francs et trop influents. » Hier, (12 février 2026) la justice a décidé qu'ils devaient rester en prison durant l'enquête. À l'extérieur du tribunal, une cinquantaine de personnes manifestaient. La militante Yanet Rodríguez Sánchez, qui avait déposé un habeas corpus en faveur des deux jeunes, n'a pas pu assister à l'audience. Des policiers - deux patrouilles, une moto et deux policiers en civil - l'ont empêché de sortir de chez elle, raconte 14yMedio. La militante a également reçu des menaces par téléphone. Depuis hier matin, Yanet Rodriguez Sanchez vit, donc, recluse chez elle, « une forme de détention de fait que les autorités cubaines utilisent de plus en plus pour empêcher les militants de participer à des manifestations », souligne le site d'informations.   Le New York Times face au dossier Epstein Le New York Times raconte comment il travaille sur les documents de l'affaire Epstein. Des documents qui, si on les empilait, « atteindrait le sommet de l'Empire state building », explique le quotidien qui a mobilisé une vingtaine de journalistes pour étudier ces trois millions de pages, 180 000 images et 2 000 vidéos. Impossible, évidemment, de tout lire, de tout regarder. « Cela prendrait des années de tout parcourir et ensuite de vérifier si les informations sont vraies et publiables », précise le New York Times. Alors les journalistes ont commencé par faire une liste de mots à chercher : « Trump. Clinton. Gates. Le duc d'York. » Les journalistes du New York Times travaillent avec des outils informatiques. Ils disposent notamment d'un outil de traitement des documents. Il a donc d'abord fallu tous les télécharger depuis le site du ministère de la Justice américain. Cela a pris dix heures. Pendant ce temps-là, les journalistes ont dû se contenter de la barre de recherche du site. Pour gagner du temps, un spécialiste de l'intelligence artificielle du journal et des ingénieurs ont mis au point un outil améliorant la fonction « recherche » du site. Cette équipe a créé plusieurs programmes d'IA pour faciliter le travail des journalistes. Mais attention, prévient le responsable de l'Intelligence artificielle du New York Times, « l'IA est extrêmement travailleuse, mais pas très intelligente ». Elle ne remplace pas des journalistes. Avec les premières découvertes, la prudence s'est tout de suite imposée, en particulier concernant Donald Trump. « Ce n'est pas parce que ces documents sont publics qu'ils sont forcément vérifiés, vrais ou exacts », souligne le New York Times. Or, « nous ne faisons pas de suppositions. Nous devons vérifier [les informations] ce qui implique souvent un travail minutieux qui peut prendre du temps », explique le quotidien qui reconnaît que « cela peut être frustrant pour nos lecteurs qui consultent ces documents eux-mêmes ou qui lisent [des] informations ailleurs ».   Au Canada, l'amour coûte cher Au Canada, en cette veille de St Valentin, le Devoir s'intéresse au coût financier de l'amour. Selon un sondage de la Banque de Montréal, les Canadiens dépensent en moyenne près de 110 euros à chaque rendez-vous. Transport, préparatifs, nourriture, boissons, billets... font grimper la note, explique le quotidien. Or, l'inflation que connaît le pays, inquiète les Canadiens. Du coup, la moitié des célibataires interrogées ont diminué le nombre ou le coût de leurs rendez-vous pour économiser. Un quart des sondés ont même annulé un rendez-vous, faute d'argent. « Les rencontres amoureuses sont de plus en plus évaluées sous l'angle financier, beaucoup se demandant s'il s'agit d'un coût ou d'un investissement », affirme au Devoir Sumit Sarkar, vice-président à la BMO.

Overgrown roadside hedges can seriously put lives at risk by blocking road signs and forcing vehicles into oncoming traffic. Anton discusses further with Barry Kehoe, Chair of the County and City Management Association on Transport, Infrastructure and Networks Committee and Chief Executive of Westmeath County Council.

Wellington councillors, industry groups and workers are sounding the alarm over immigration settings for bus drivers, warning of a looming shortage. A residency pathway for bus drivers, announced in 2022, required an academic English language level to stay in the country after two-years on a working visa. Now, drivers are coming to sit the test and some are struggling. Ellen O'Dwyer reports.

Origin Air's new eighteen-seat flights between Christchurch and Nelson begin today. Origin Air chief executive Robert Inglis spoke to Corin Dann.

There's a call for more investment in regional ports to increase the use of coastal shipping. Recent severe weather events have highlighted the economic vulnerability of roads in some parts of the country. New Zealand Shipping Federation Executive Director, John Harbord spoke to Corin Dann.

A major rethink of transport links and roading into Tai Rāwhiti is needed to ensure the economic future of the region as severe weather events become more frequent. Richard Burke, former Chief Executive of LeaderBrand spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

The Government is facing pressure to produce a progress report for the Shannon Rail Link. Despite being included as an end of the decade objective in the All-Island Strategic Rail Review, no funding has been allocated by the Department of Transport for it this year. The proposed infrastructure would see Shannon Airport connected to the railway network at either Sixmilebridge or Cratloe. Shannon Banks Sinn Féin Councillor James Ryan says real commitment is needed.

Manawatu parents and caregivers are dipping into their savings and even taking out loans in order to find a bus service to get their children to school. This comes after some school buses that used to run into Palmerston North were axed as a result of a Ministry of Education review into over 250 routes nationwide. One high school reports that 300 of its students are affected by the changes. Jimmy Ellingham has more.

La pose de la première pierre de la gigafactory du groupe taïwanais ProLogium, ce mardi 10 février, à Dunkerque, marque une nouvelle étape dans la stratégie industrielle française. Objectif : faire de la France un leader européen des batteries électriques. Mais derrière l'ambition, la réalité industrielle s'avère plus complexe. Ce mardi midi, c'est un événement symbolique qui se déroule dans le nord de la France : la pose de la première pierre d'une nouvelle gigafactory de batteries électriques à Dunkerque, portée par le groupe taïwanais ProLogium. Un projet emblématique de la stratégie industrielle tricolore, dont l'ambition est claire : faire de la France un leader européen des batteries électriques. Les objectifs affichés sont à la hauteur de l'enjeu. D'ici 2030, la France vise une production annuelle de deux millions de batteries, la création de plus de 13 000 emplois directs, et la constitution d'une véritable « vallée de la batterie » dans les Hauts-de-France. Un projet stratégique, car l'enjeu est majeur, il s'agit réduire la dépendance à la Chine, qui contrôle aujourd'hui près de 70% de la production mondiale de batteries. Or, sans batteries, pas de voitures électriques, et sans voitures électriques, pas de transition énergétique crédible. La souveraineté industrielle devient ainsi un pilier central de la politique économique française. Un déploiement plus lent que prévu : un défi technologique et industriel Trois ans après les grandes annonces, le bilan reste contrasté. Sur le papier, la France compte cinq projets majeurs de gigafactories. Dans les faits, seules deux sont aujourd'hui réellement en activité, tandis que les autres sont encore en phase de montée en puissance ou de préparation. Cette lenteur s'explique d'abord par la complexité extrême de la fabrication des batteries. Produire des cellules à grande échelle exige une maîtrise industrielle et chimique de très haut niveau, dans des environnements ultra-contrôlés. Les industriels européens commencent à peine à acquérir ce savoir-faire, alors que les acteurs asiatiques disposent de plus de quinze ans d'avance. À cela s'ajoute le coût colossal de ces infrastructures. Chaque gigafactory représente entre 2 et 5 milliards d'euros d'investissement. Un pari financier lourd, qui impose des montages complexes et une montée en charge progressive. Mais le principal défi reste l'évolution extrêmement rapide des technologies de batteries. Une batterie développée il y a trois ans est déjà dépassée technologiquement par rapport aux modèles actuels, plus performants, plus durables et plus compétitifs. Cette course à l'innovation impose aux industriels de revoir régulièrement leurs choix technologiques. ProLogium à Dunkerque : un pari industriel et économique à haut risque Le projet ProLogium illustre parfaitement ces difficultés. Si la première pierre n'est posée que ce mardi, trois ans après l'annonce initiale, c'est parce que le groupe taïwanais a décidé de changer de technologie en cours de route, afin de passer à une nouvelle génération de batteries solides plus performantes. Un choix stratégique, mais aussi un pari industriel risqué, qui a repoussé le calendrier du projet. Un pari également assumé par les pouvoirs publics. Pour attirer ces géants industriels, l'État français mobilise massivement l'argent public. Selon les études de la Banque européenne d'investissement et de France stratégie, un euro public investi dans l'industrie verte génère entre 2,5 et 4 euros de valeur ajoutée à moyen terme. Si, pour l'instant, les retombées économiques restent limitées, elles sont appelées à s'amplifier : créations d'emplois directs et indirects, fiscalité locale, sous-traitance, développement de filières industrielles complètes. Au-delà de la préservation de l'industrie automobile française et de la sécurisation de l'approvisionnement européen en batteries, ces projets participent surtout à la relance économique de territoires durement touchés par la désindustrialisation.

Clare drivers paid almost €25 million in motor tax last year. The Department of Transport has revealed that national motor tax receipts for 2025 came to €924 million. Dublin accounted for the lion's share of this with motorists there paying €221 million across the twelve-month period while Clare's total figure was €24 million. Ennis Fianna Fáil Councillor Antoinette Baker-Bashua believes the current system punishes those who can't make a full payment.

We're touring the sub-continent today, choose your mode of transport — Cape Cart, ox-wagon, horse, mule, on foot? Before the arrival of steam locomotion, roads in South Africa were little more than rutted tracks created by repeated passage of wagons and animal teams rather than purpose-built carriageways. There was no formal road network in the early 19th century: routes developed organically where ox-wagons, horse-drawn carts, and pack animals repeatedly traversed the landscape, linking farms, military posts, and markets. These tracks followed natural contours and river fords, often taking months to traverse over rugged terrain. The primary transport machines on land before railways were ox-wagons and horse-drawn vehicles. The ox-wagon was the backbone of overland transport. It carried heavy goods — from wool bales and foodstuffs to mining equipment — over long distances and difficult terrain. Transport riders, both European and African, led these wagons into the interior, resting at outspans before continuing. Their significance was such that even towns and trails were defined by their routes. Before the age of railways, South African towns grew up along the overland routes forged by ox-wagons, horses and people on foot, and the rhythms of travel on those routes had a profound influence on where settlements were established and how they were spaced. In an era when roads were not engineered highways but repeated trails across the veld, the limits of what an ox-wagon team or a horse-mounted traveller could cover in a day shaped the practical distances between reliable stopping places, watering spots and supply points — and ultimately played a role in the birth and growth of towns. Drawn by spans of oxen, often 8–18 animals harnessed in long teams — these wagons carried goods, families and traders across great distances. Their average pace was slow by modern standards, typically around twenty kilometres per day under good conditions, depending on terrain, weather and the condition of the animals. This daily range was often the practical maximum that wagon drivers would plan for, and that distance became a natural unit for planning journeys, locating inns or out-span grazing grounds, and later for settlements that would service trafficked routes. Because of these constraints, towns tended to appear at intervals that corresponded roughly with a day's travel by ox-wagon or horse — places where travellers could rest, water animals, resupply or trade. These stopping points, sometimes initially little more than a watering hole or crossing on a drift, acquired markets, services and sometimes a church or administrative function as traffic increased and the surrounding countryside was settled. Over time, these logical halting-places evolved into permanent towns serving an increasingly local and itinerant population. The first public railway service in South Africa marked a dramatic shift in land transport. The Natal Railway Companyopened a small line in June 1860, linking Point (Durban) to Market Square using steam traction — this was the earliest operational stretch of railway in the country. Its first locomotive, “The Natal,” carried goods and passengers, representing a novel machine in the South African transport system and signaling a move away from animal-powered haulage. Almost simultaneously, railway construction began in the Cape Colony. In 1858–1862, the Cape Town Railway and Dock Company built the line from Cape Town to Wellington, opening sections to Eerste River and then Stellenbosch by the early 1860s. These early lines employed steam locomotives and rudimentary rolling stock (passenger coaches and goods wagons) — the “iron horse” replacing oxen and horses over these corridors. In 1931, South African entrepreneur Max Sonnenberg opened his first store in Cape Town chosing the name "Woolworths" specifically because the American F.W. Woolworth brand was already a global symbol of retail success.

So after that sojourn through the wonderful world of 1879, we return to Zululand. Lord Chelmsford was in a pickle. He had initially blamed the disaster at Isandlwana on his 2 IC Pulleine, and Durnford but by February, a few weeks after the battle, the general inclination of the Horse Guards back home was to point the finger at Chelmsford instead. In the British parliament, conservative prime minister Disraeli was struggling to spin a way out after the terrible news from South Africa, “It is a military disaster,” he said in the House of Lords on 13th February “…a terrible military disaster, but I think we may say it is no more…”

2026-01-29 | UPDATES #117 | Today, Europe just fired a legal warning shot across the bow of Russia's “shadow fleet” — the aging, murky armada that keeps Putin's oil money flowing, and increasingly turns the Baltic into a grey-zone battlefield. But stern words and legal warnings have never intimidated Putin before, in fact, he takes these as a sign of weakness, unless they are accompanied by action. Fourteen European coastal states say the basics of maritime safety are being shredded — by GNSS jamming, AIS manipulation, and sanctions-evading tankers that treat international rules like optional extras. And the subtext is clear: we're done letting this fleet ghost through chokepoints uncontested. What did Europe announce? Are they claiming jurisdiction over the waters, or over the grey fleet? What are the conditions for interception? And does this make confrontation more likely? How far would Putin go to keep this economic lifeline going? ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: UK Government (26 Jan 2026) — “The growing risks to maritime safety” (open letter; signatories; UNCLOS Art 92; SOLAS/AIS/LRIT requirements) https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-growing-risks-to-maritime-safety/the-growing-risks-to-maritime-safetyFinnish Government / Ministry of Transport and Communications (26 Jan 2026) — Press release on the joint letter and GNSS interference - https://valtioneuvosto.fi/en/-/1410829/itameren-ja-pohjanmeren-rantavaltiot-gnss-hairinta-on-lisannyt-merenkulun-turvallisuusriskeja-1Denmark — Danish Maritime Authority (Jan 2026) — Notice referencing the open letterhttps://www.dma.dk/news/2026/january/coastal-states-warn-of-threats-to-maritime-safety-in-the-baltic-and-north-sea-regionERR (Estonia) (Jan 2026) — Summary of the warning and signatorieshttps://news.err.ee/1609924184/all-vessels-are-at-risk-14-countries-warn-shadow-fleet-vessels-to-follow-rulesMaritime Executive (26 Jan 2026) — Reporting and technical context on GNSS/AIS and the letterhttps://maritime-executive.com/article/european-nations-warn-shadow-fleet-shipowners-to-play-by-the-rulesgCaptain (Jan 2026) — Coverage framing the enforcement shift and compliance frameworkhttps://gcaptain.com/europe-signals-new-phase-in-shadow-fleet-enforcement/Insurance Journal (27 Jan 2026) — Coverage of the 14-nation warninghttps://www.insurancejournal.com/news/international/2026/01/27/855788.htmAtlantic Council (22 Jan 2026) — Analysis: shadow fleet as hybrid tool; argues for stronger interpretation/enforcement - https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/dispatches/the-us-is-taking-action-against-russias-shadow-fleet-in-the-baltic-sea-europe-should-follow-suit/Emmanuel Macron on X (Jan 2026) — Public statement on French Navy boarding of a sanctioned tanker - https://x.com/EmmanuelMacron/status/2014341199507706242----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2026 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.
