Labour to oppose 'Henry VIII powers' being used to rewrite EU laws | Politics | The Guardian
march 2017 by asterisk2a
[ no moderation, moderation is gone. Global Britain is here. 'indyref2 wil happen one way or another. no opposition and no say will infuriate Scots even more eventually ] It is expected that this will involve extensive use of “Henry VIII powers” – laws allowing ministers to change primary legislation (government bills) using secondary legislation (orders that go through parliament with little or no scrutiny). [...] Corbyn said Labour would oppose handing ministers such extensive powers when the House of Commons votes on the great repeal bill. [ less accountability, transparency, democracy, representation ... more technical! technocracy! that was voted actually against as it is practiced in EU ... the irony ] //&!

George Osborne vs John McDonnell - Treasury Questions - YouTube
october 2015 by asterisk2a
"economic security for the country (& working people)" out of the mouth of Mr "Judgement Call" (that is what the tax credit cuts are, according to him, in front of select committee in house of commons hearing on the matter. // As if 12bn have no multiplier. 12bn for the corporate sharing it amongst their shareholders who have already bns, there is no multiplier at all. it just moves the digit after the comma. For the poop it is about paying for heating and new shoes. stupid. could afford welfare bill if corporates were to pay their fair share of taxes and not avoid and evade and no corporate welfare like for the steel industry (picking winners). = Show of Career Politician with some ideoligy and dogma and no principles. HE IS A MERCENARY. NOT A VISIONARY. A Career Politician. Calculated. Opportunistic. No long-term view. // IFS did say, in case of austerity, private sector has to pick up the slack. And it did since 2010. And new figures in household debt/credit card debt shows that.

Tax credit cuts - will the House of Lords stop them? - YouTube
october 2015 by asterisk2a
what constitutional crisis? democracy. separation of power. checks and balances. getting the voice of the minority heard who have no voice, nobody, no lobby in Westminster to speak and represent them. // 1:44:00 David Cameron and Osborne lied to win a small majority in the general election, withholding the details of further (12bn) welfare cuts in the next parliament if they were (re-)elected. The British public is fed up. Same with LibDems budging on Student Fees post-election and students went on the street in London and elsewhere. & 1:58-59:00 because of that fact, what the gov is asking us to do to waive this through, is unacceptable. & 2:00:00 no taxation without representation & 2:34:00 Poor have to make even more hard choices that Toff can't even imagine to make. & If you don't create middle-class jobs (job creation/industrial policy), you have to top up pay with tax credit for low income. Period. & 2:47:00 proposed amendments were just soft paced cut style. no principles!

Europe's economic challenge not just about Greece - BBC News
august 2015 by asterisk2a
IMF, Christine Lagarde, said: "I remain firmly of the view that Greece's debt has become unsustainable." [...] Greek debt will reach 201% of GDP some time next year. [...] It is unlikely a portion of the debt will be written off but there may well be an agreement to extend current loans and to lower the rates of interest. [...] [ the overall health of Europe as a whole and its individual parts in question] [...] the eurozone economy splutters. There is a recovery - the eurozone is growing at an annual rate of 1.3% - but it is patchy. In the [Q2'15] France and Italy, which account for 40% of the eurozone economy, flat-lined. Italy which had only recently emerged from recession fell back, managing growth of just 0.2%. [...] [ ECB: on balance, outlook remains on the downside ] The eurozone economy is still smaller than it was in 2008. [...] The fundamental challenges to the European economy remain - how to innovate [...] modernise [...] [ EU project living up to its potential ]

TTIP: EU-Parlament stellt sich hinter Freihandelsabkommen - SPIEGEL ONLINE
july 2015 by asterisk2a
"Die Abgeordneten erzielten am Mittwoch einen Kompromiss. Die von Linken als undemokratisch kritisierten privaten Schiedsgerichte sollen durch ein neues System ersetzt werden, heißt es in dem Beschlusstext. Dieser wurde am Mittwoch mit 436 Ja- gegen 241 Nein-Stimmen verabschiedet. Stattdessen sollen unabhängige Gerichte über derartige Fälle entscheiden. Damit will Straßburg eine befürchtete Benachteiligung europäischer Unternehmen bei Klagen gegen Staaten verhindern." [...] Nach Einschätzung des Präsidenten des Bundesverbands der Deutschen Industrie, Ulrich Grillo, macht diese Entschließung den Weg frei "für echte Chancen und klare Regeln im transatlantischen Handel". [...] Die Verbraucherorganisation Foodwatch und die Bündnisse "TTIP unfairhandelbar" sowie "Stop TTIP" zeigten sich enttäuscht von der Resolution. Die Abgeordneten hätten damit die Gelegenheit verpasst, der Aushöhlung der Demokratie durch Freihandelsabkommen und Konzernklagerechte einen Riegel vorzuschieben, [...]

Greece isn't any old troubled debtor - BBC News
june 2015 by asterisk2a
What is very striking - and important - about the agonised talks between Greece and its creditors is that no European leader has tried to bind the feuding sides together with a call to European solidarity, or with any emotive rhetoric about how this great monetary project is all about prosperity and peace for all eurozone citizens. [Career Politicians are are managing the status quo. They are no missionaries.] Nor has any great sense been conveyed that maintaining the wholeness and integrity of the eurozone is a matter of passionate principle. Instead the public and private debate has been couched in the language of national interests, rather than the imperative of keeping the so-called great European project on the road. [...] And some of them would say the creditors are in self-harming denial [not accepting a haircut or lengthy pause of repayment till economy is on a growth track] Or to put it another way, Mrs Merkel and Mr Hollande don't want the backlash from their own citizens.

SNP conference: Minority Labour government 'would have to talk to SNP' - BBC News
march 2015 by asterisk2a
Ed Miliband not even agreeing on a policy by policy coalition, is an affront to Scottish voters, democracy & representation. Westminsters handling of the scottish referendum & the last minute vow without consulting english mps & the consequences, is a symptom of how westminster sees scotland & its people, democracy, representation & their attitude towards them. ed miliband could have said 'everything is up in the air' & conservatives putting him&salmon on their election poster, was to concede the probable election outcome. vs saying what he said - a vague no, preserving what is to preserve & paddle back after the election results come in & hope his party will not lose 1 vote bc of this incident, bc the english constituency is on no good terms with the Scottish // its not the english constituency, its westminster. stupid // vs. bbc.in/1G2piCT - Sturgeon offers 'friendship message' to UK, 'vote SNP & Labour &we will move Labour further to the left in a coalition.' & bbc.in/1EgCXqY

BND vermutet seit 2005, dass Deutschland Spionageziel für USA war - SPIEGEL ONLINE
november 2014 by asterisk2a
https://netzpolitik.org/2014/bnd-dokument-belegt-bundesregierung-weiss-bereits-seit-einem-jahrzehnt-dass-nsa-co-uns-ueberwachen/ - Als die Snowden-Enthüllungen begannen, will die Bundesregierung von nichts gewusst haben. Als das Merkelfone einen konkreten Spionagefall aufdeckte hieß es, man habe sich bisher nicht mit Überwachung durch unsere Freunde beschäftigt. Das konnt eman damals bestenfalls als total naiv bezeichnen oder es entsprach nicht der Wahrheit. Heute berichtet der Spiegel von einem BND-Protokoll, das bereits Anfang 2005 darüber aufklärte, dass auch befreundete und verbündete Nationen uns überwachen [...] Man geht jetzt mit Strafanzeige gegen Whistleblower aus dem eigenen Haus vor, um diejenigen einzuschüchtern und mit Sicherheitsbehörden zu verfolgen, die dazu beitragen, Licht ins Dunkel zu bringen und über diese Vernebelungsaktionen aufzuklären: Regierung plant Strafanzeige gegen unbekannt.

Symantec Uncovers Sophisticated, Stealthy Computer Spying Tool | Re/code
november 2014 by asterisk2a
Symantec say they have discovered a sophisticated piece of malware circulating the world that appears to be used for spying at Internet service and telecommunications companies, and was likely created by a government agency. And while its origin is unclear, a short list of capable countries would include the U.S., Israel and China. [...] The quality of Regin’s design and the investment required to create it is such that it was almost certainly made by a nation-state, - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8649402 &! 2 days later - https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2014/11/24/secret-regin-malware-belgacom-nsa-gchq/ "Complex malware known as Regin is the suspected technology behind sophisticated cyberattacks conducted by U.S. and British intelligence agencies on the European Union and a Belgian telecommunications company, according to security industry sources and technical analysis conducted by The Intercept." << NSA/GCHQ not only watch over Angela Merkel's phone.

Latest TPP Leak Reveals Even Harsher Copyright Rules - Forbes
october 2014 by asterisk2a
The US is also calling for criminal sanctions for copyright infringement, even where the infringement isn’t being carried out for commercial reasons. “If the US gets its way, then criminal penalties will apply even against users who were not seeking financial gain from sharing or making available copyrighted works, such as fans and archivists,” write Jeremy Malcolm and Maira Sutton of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). “Such a broad definition is ripe for abuse.” Indeed, a similar provision in a free trade agreement between Columbia and the US led to copyright laws that saw a Columbian graduate student arrested for posting another student’s academic paper online without permission.

AfD: Union reagiert auf Euroskeptiker von Wolfgang Münchau - SPIEGEL ONLINE
september 2014 by asterisk2a
Abwarten, anbiedern, angreifen - drei Strategien, mit denen die Union auf die neue Konkurrenz durch die AfD reagiert. Richtig ist allein die dritte: Wer die Lucke-Partei kleinhalten will, muss offensiv für Euro und Europa werben. [...] die totale Konfrontation suchen. Schäubles Weg ist der richtige. [...] Befürworter der europäischen Integration werden als übereifrige "Integrationisten" abgekanzelt. Und man spottet über Brüsseler Bürokraten ohne Kenntnis der Fakten. Wenn man diesen Weg geht, wandelt sich auch bei uns die Debatte. Wenn wir die AfD bekämpfen wollen, dann sollten wir verhindern, dass die Partei die Debatte monopolisiert. Sonst schlafwandelt auch Deutschland in die Euroskepsis.

Lobbyismus: EU-Politikerin Sharon Bowles wechselt zur Londoner Börse - SPIEGEL ONLINE
august 2014 by asterisk2a
"Die LSE hat Sharon Bowles eingekauft - die Frau, die unsere internen Besprechungen im Parlament und alle Kniffe kennt, die weiß, wie man unseren neuen Gesetzen die Zähne zieht", sagt Sven Giegold, finanz- und wirtschaftspolitischer Sprecher der Grünen im Europaparlament. "Vor nicht einmal zwei Monaten war sie noch eine von uns, jetzt hat sie ihren guten Ruf verkauft. Solche Seitenwechsel beschädigen die Demokratie." Olivier Hoedeman von der Lobbykritiker-Organisation Corporate Europe Observatory wirft Bowles vor, sie untergrabe den Ruf des Parlaments.

The Rise Of Europe's Religious Right
july 2014 by asterisk2a
For the most part, though, issues dear to social conservatives were a side issue in elections driven heavily by economic frustration. [...] The suddenness with which social conservatives became a force in Brussels has many progressives speculating that they are the creations of American social conservatives seeking to “export the culture wars.” [...] Today, American ties seem much more about a shared vision to build a global conservative movement rather than leaning on stronger and wealthier U.S. partners for support. // http://www.salon.com/2014/02/28/the_dying_right_why_christian_fundamentalists_are_in_panic_mode_partner/ || Pro Progressive - the hard things are hard bc they are worth doing it. It's easy to turn ones back. But its hard to hold your face into the storm that is brewing. Holding onto status quo is not worth the struggle, it is a futile short-term view - as the status quo is not sustainable.

BBC News - Farage hails 'extraordinary' UKIP win in European election
may 2014 by asterisk2a
Anti-EU parties from the left and right have gained significant numbers of MEPs across all 28 member states in the wake of the eurozone crisis and severe financial squeeze. However, pro-EU parties will still hold the majority in parliament. Turnout across the EU is up slightly at 43.1%, according to estimates. Turnout in the UK was 33.8%, down slightly on last time.

[...] The election has delivered a big blow to the political establishment in Europe - the establishment that pursued austerity and bank bailouts, at great cost to millions of ordinary voters." [...] "Martin Schulz, the former Socialist president of the European Parliament - said of the FN victory: "It's a bad day for the European Union, when a party with a racist, xenophobic and anti-Semitic programme gets 25% of the vote."
