It should be a clear warning that it is particularly Serbia pushing for the idea of EU accession without veto, hoping it can enter into the single market without fulfilling the rule of law or democracy criteria.
Violence is fun. That’s the new quality really with Trump 2.0.
The finest take down of the institution of monarchy and "class" and the grasping, greedy, venal, entitled, and very stupid people it enables that you will read today or any day.

Yep indeed. That has way more power than most people are aware of.
Was für ein Flurschaden für eine Branche, die ohnehin unter Druck steht. Statt sich - wie großspurig von ihm angekündigt - um die Regulierung von Monopol-Akteuren wie Google zu kümmern, beschädigt Weimar massiv das Ansehen der so wichtigen, kleinen Buchläden im Land. Ein Bärendienst für die Kultur.
True. But at least they don’t have a (direct) day in most of our legislation.
So finally in the 21st century after a debate of more than 25 years we decided to abolish feudalism. Or at least the most visible part of it. 👇

Satire was dead long ago. Now he did the same to standup comedy.
Flabbergasting.
A dusty awkward attempt of spring. But it’s coming…
Cancel the April state visit to the US.
A state visit from our King should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults our country.
Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.
Now that Trump has anointed himself the new Supreme Leader of Iran, my (not very optimistic) thoughts on where his crusade to bring peace and stability to the Middle East via “death and destruction from the sky” may be heading…
Tony Blair might do better to keep schtum on this particular subject.
Rather than concentrate on the wildfire war he's just started, Trump is spending his time on the phone with British journalists slagging off Keir Starmer. Their dictation skills turn out to be excellent www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/lab...
Can't be a good sign (for him) when Trump is even losing his temper with the Fox News reporters...
Three cheers for @robertshrimsley.bsky.social. Am reading and listening to too many self-styled fans of liberal democracy saying, in effect, 'let's park international law for the moment and talk about....'
A timely warning from @davidallengreen.bsky.social

Tx! - The UK is so much more complicated than Gemans think. Not an easy task indeed. Good luck with your writing 🍀🙋🏻♀️
Sri Lanka Airport. While the world is on fire, these guys have a well deserved break.
🥳. Glückwunsch und sehr gut !!
Am sticking with my bet that the right is reading this wrong and that the majority of voters are not at all unhappy Starmer has upset Trump by holding back from a war whose purpose and end game no-one seems able to define.
Remember when Trump promised that India would stop buying Russian oil? Well it turns out that Trump's decision to bomb Iran has had the exact opposite effect, leading to a surge of Russian oil being sent to India. www.indiatoday.in/india/story/...
“Hanging on to President Trump’s latest words is not the special relationship” …a useful message there from Starmer for the BBC’s hyperbolic political reporting as well as for Badenoch.
Die Grünen in UK zeigen vor allem auch, dass die extreme Rechte nicht die populärste Partei bei jungen Wähler_innen sein muss.
Sie sind das Antidot zu Reform.
😅👍
Wholly unprepared for the consequences. As the whole operation was from the start.
The King’s visit in America could be yet more damaging for the Royal Family. His own son’s war contribution insulted, our PM insulted. It might be wiser to cancel it.
It’s getting ridiculous.
