Germans can no longer sell cars. So, they will build tanks. But tanks last for decades and consumers don't buy them anyway. That's why Military Keynesianism doesn't work, unless you start one war after the other US-style. Ergo, only fools welcome German Military Keynesianism.

Europe's militarist surge is not about opposing Trump, but doing exactly what he demands on.ft.com/3XxUdFl

At least 12% of Britain’s annual military budget is spent on its failing nuclear weapons programme – weapons, that if they are ever used, means the end of humanity. Polling shows people don't want more austerity to fund warfare.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Monopoly capital has always been the enemy of democracy, free speech and even the free market. We are now in a new era of political control, where the oligarchs unite with the far right. And our governments stand by and watch.

Kraków, Warszawa i Wrocław znów są w pierwszej 100 miast z najgorszą jakością powietrza na całym świecie. Kilka dni temu rząd zawiesił program Czyste Powietrze. Program ma wrócić w 2025 r. ale w nowej odsłonie wykluczy ze wsparcia wiele gospodarstw domowych. Hańba!

The murderer of Chris Hani has been deported to Poland. Janusz Waluś is a murderer and a Nazi, who has been lauded as a hero by the far-right in Poland. Chris Hani was a true hero and a revolutionary that fought the evil that was Apartheid, until he was murdered. Amandla✊ youtu.be/ni5h_BaSH78?...

Israel has committed — and is continuing to commit — genocide in Gaza.

This weekend, we marched once again in solidarity with the Palestinian people. We sent a message to our government: if you knowingly supply weapons to a government whose leader is wanted for war crimes, the long arm of international law will extend to you too.

Armas para pensar ¿Tusk contra el populismo polaco de extrema derecha? «Derrotar» a la extrema derecha incorporando sus políticas al consenso dominante ✍🏼 Gavin Rae

A very important statement by left wing MPs and the peace movement in the UK. Peace talks not further military escalation are needed to halt the war in Ukraine.

The choice in next year's Polish Presidential elections will once again be between two right wing candidates. The small silver lining is that the hawk, Radosław Sikorski, has failed to become the KO candidate.

Nothing would suprise me at the moment. Europe is economically in decline and filled with poor, weak leaders desperate for some grandeur, even if this means leading us to WW3 www.lemonde.fr/en/internati...
