The world has a right to accountability for any violations of int’l law that may have taken place.

My post about my resignation over Iraq, 20 years on, has spread widely and provoked extraordinary messages from insiders from foreign ministries and international organisations. There's a lot of anger and disillusionment out there. See it here - open.substack.com/pub/carneross/…

Last night, I watched people in tuxedos step over the names of murdered Palestinian journalists to make their way into the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
