Bruising ballet
It is that most Christmas of stories—the fist fight that breaks out in the audience of a children’s matinee performance of The Nutcracker.

The digging, the paperwork, the questions and revelations that just maybe the ministries involved aren’t as neutral as they should be, and it’s finally over. Well, for now. The witness lists exhausted, the hearings for the second Environmental Review […]
