Erdoğan’s fascist regime in Turkey has arrested more members of the secular and progressive Istanbul municipality – including Murat Ongun and his wife. (This comes after he arrested the mayor – Ekrem İmamoğlu – Turkish presidential candidate and his main rival.)

The last time I’d spoken with Murat was when he’d invited me to speak in Istanbul about my work on Small Technology. I sadly had to refuse as they couldn’t guarantee my safety because I’d spoken out against Erdoğan in Berlin and labelled a “terrorist” by the mayor of Ankara for it:

“Like Erdogan, he [Trump] has embraced crank economic doctrines to justify his policies, in Trump’s case the ludicrous claim that tariffs won’t raise consumer prices. Does anyone doubt that when inflation rises, he’ll dismiss it as “fake news”?”
