One thing to add is that she is basically right of the far-right. Before the latest EU election were German AfD kicked out of ID (now PfE), for being too extreme. Hence, after the election did AfD gather other parties that were too crazy for ID/PfE and created ESN. Șoșoacă and her SOS Romania originally wished to join ESN, but wasn't allowed to join due to objections from other parties. Basically, you have centre right in EPP, right wing in ECR, far-right in PfE, far-far-right in ESN, and one step further is Șoșoacă.
It is well known that the far-right have always opposed anti-semitism /s
This conference is clearly about "combatting" something else. That they refer to it as "combatting anti-semitism" is just disgusting.
Inte helt orimligt att fråga vänner och allierade om några ägg. Tråkigt för USA att de varken har vänner eller allierade
50 years would be 2075, assuming that they don't run out of money or lose interest by then. The World Cup in 2034 is slightly before 2075. Hence, is the plan to host it in a construction site or doing it digitally in their lovely digital model of the stadium?
An alternative title had been "Trump accepts millions in bribes". $75mn of those from one fraudster who seem to have bought himself a "Get Out of Jail Free card" https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/business/crypto-mogul-trump-coins-civil-fraud-charges/index.html
Should clarify that what I meant with it making sense in the UK is that their election system results in that the party that get most seats usually get over 50%, which means that "winning" and winning often become the same thing. Except 2017, when the Tories only lacked 5 seats to have over 50%, and 2010, when the Tories and LibDem were in a rare coalition, so do you have to go all the way back to 1974 to find another election where the party that "won" did not get over 50% and 1923 to find an election where the party that "won" de facto lost. Hence, I do understand the use of that language there, as it usually is relevant who "won".
Great news. However, am I the only one annoyed by the phrase "winning an election", used three times in the article? I note that the author is from the UK and that phrase does make sense in their system. However, in most of Europe is it not weird or even uncommon that the party that gets the most votes and seats de facto lose the election and end up in opposition; as it's all about getting more than 50% of the parliament. Getting the most votes and seats is nothing more than nice statistics, if you can't get more than 50% behind you.
A more accurate text had been "FPÖ, despite getting the most seats in the parliament, are in the end in fact losers"
They probably should explain to the Murican government that we in Europe have something called freedom of speech and that governments, and especially foreign governments, do not have the right to censor specific words that happen to offend them.
True, it is very unlikely that this will directly lead to anything. However, it might at least force Labour to clarify where they stand. Tories and Reform are against rejoining. LibDem, SNP, Plaid, and Greens are for rejoining. And Labour are officially against rejoning... right now, but it was still definitely a mistake to leave in the first place and they would undo it if they could. This debate would hopefully start Labour on a path to step down from the fence.
Let's not just blame the orange one and the couch fucker. You also had their cadre of far-right "journalists" who took a break from their normal conspiracies to get into a fight about Zelensky's choice of clothes.
That's obviously not good. However, there are of course levels in hell and "hard-right" here seems to include some, but not all, ECR parties, plus all of PfE, and all of ESN. I'm not a fan pf any of them, but some of the parties behind the numbers are a far bigger worry than others; as they differ a lot on crucial topics.
