A quasi quattro anni dall'inizio dell'invasione dell'Ucraina da parte dell'esercito russo, decine di migliaia di morti dopo, nelle sedi di organizzazioni di sinistra come l'Arci ancora si organizzano eventi di propaganda delle posizioni del Cremlino mascherati da racconti indipendenti della verità. Che disgrazia.

As it's International Talk Like A Pirate Day today, it's a good time to explore where the skull-and-crossbones flag we now associate with pirates originated, and how this links to Glasgow.

This photo shows part of a memorial in Glasgow Cathedral for James Law, the city's archbishop between 1615 and 1632. So why does an archbishop's memorial have what we now consider a pirate symbol on it?

McCrae went on to become the governor of Madras for the East India Company. When he resigned this post in 1730, he returned to Britain, and eventually settled in Ayr. Around this time, he donated an Equestrian Statue of King William III to the city of Glasgow, which now stands in Cathedral Square, just a short distance from Archbishop Law's memorial where this story started.
