Every hour European governments lose out on €4 million in aviation… The aviation sector benefits from unjustified tax exemptions that, if left unaddressed, will rise in value by 38% in the next three years.

Total lost international aviation fuel tax revenue for the EU is in the tens of billions per year.

It’s goodnight Vienna as Paris sleeper train to Austria and Berlin hit by cuts Some Nightjet services suspended from mid-December after French withdrawal amid public budget crisis

Paris-Berlin sleeper: low carbon, 2 years old, constantly full, but currently losing SNCF a few million EUR/yr

Intl Jet fuel tax exemptions are 80 years old and cost the EU 22 million EUR/yr for the Paris-Berlin route alone.

And you're cutting... the sleeper?

British banks to land Β£45bn profit bonanza Barclays, Lloyds and NatWest will report results for the third quarter over the next few days, with HSBC releasing figures the following week.

UK big four banks on course to pocket annual profits of more than Β£45bn.

Bank branches vanishing. Profits from high charges, low interest rates on savings, scandals, speculation.

Govt must levy windfall taxes on banks.

"Show them you're not afraid. Do it for the country. For the Constitution. For your family. For yourself. Do it for your freedom. While you still can."

This is excellent. Every Dem strategist who thinks there's risk in engaging these debates should watch it for guidance.
