'Clearly there is evidence to be gathered in which to prove it is a war crime, and Western countries are working together to make sure that evidence is gathered in the best way so people can be held to account.

Angry New York City parents and children flooded City Hall Park on Monday morning - the first day children over five are permitted to shed their masks - demanding that those under five be given the same freedom.

Protesters argued that the mandate is unnecessary because of the low risk of infection for those under five, and that the rule is 'damaging' to the emotional and social development of young children. Along with a vaccine mandate for municipal employees, the under-fives rule is among the only Covid restrictions NYC Mayor Eric Adams didn't lift last week.

‘They start saying that there are chemical weapons that have been stored by their opponents or by the Americans and so when they themselves deploy chemical weapons, as I fear they may, they have a sort of maskirovka, a fake story, ready to go.



'These are some of the most difficult cases that a judge has to deal with because we're talking about pictures of sex abuse of children, we're talking about graphic descriptions that judges have to read and consider when they decide how to sentence in these cases,' she continued in an impassioned defense of her judicial record.

Jackson, 51, promised to be an independent jurist on the high court, deciding cases 'without fear or favor' and emphasizing neutrality on the bench as a way of preemptively fielding Republican criticism in the coming days.

'So, what matters beyond the outrage of the fact that this has happened in the first place is to make sure all this is catalogued so when - and they surely will be - President Putin and everybody in the military chain of command beneath him - because war crimes are committed at every level not just the ultimate decisionmaker - people will be held to account for what they are doing in. It's utterly despicable.'

This elegant Spanish film will steep you in its rich imagery and phenomenally good performances from its two leads. Susi Sánchez and Bárbara Lennie star as Anabel and Chiara respectively, an estranged mother and daughter who reunite for reasons that aren't as clear as they first seem. The precision of the filmmaking here is worthy of soaking up for those who are partial to deliberately paced meditations on pain, love and loss. Masterful.

'But the only reason I mention this judge, you're reluctant to talk about it because it's uncomfortable. Just imagine what would happen if people on late night television called you an effin nut, speaking in tongues because you practice the Catholic faith in a way they couldn't relate to or found uncomfortable?'

More than a decade after her previous film, Bright Star, extraordinary filmmaker Jane Campion has unfolded the director's chair again to oversee The Power of the Dog (she wrote the script too). It centers on Phil Burbank, a rancher who uses the power of toxic masculinity to have his way, mocking his brother for falling in love. What happens when Phil starts to feel the same ridiculous sensitivities? The Power of the Dog is a mesmeric exercise in the subtle shifts of emotion and power in relationships, emotion that doesn't feel subtle at all within each character. Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons and Kirsten Dunst help bring Campion's masterful vision to life. Oscar buzz is in the air.
