Every time i read about this, think about it or watch messages like this I shed a tear. Julian’s situation is the metaphor of our times. Truth and decency locked up by the iron fist of power, while it tells lie after lie after lie about its own total immorality and violence.
I can’t imagine how it is for you, your kids and all of Julian’s family Stella. And how you all keep going is amazing. I only wish I could do more to help. I’m sure there are countless who wish that.
Look after yourselves
Thank you Stella, and thank you Roger and Yanis for your unwavering support for Julian.
