Als het een klein en tamelijk irrelevant smaldeel is, waarom dan een veralgemeniseerde post wijden aan woke? Waarom niet specifiek benoemen dat het ‘dat kleine luidruchtige smaldeel’ is - en wat het storend dan wel contraproductief maakt?

Ook bijzonder dat Lubach dit zelf niet zo kan/wil duiden.

Een kleine, tamelijke irrelevante, maar heel luidruchtig smaldeel. Een smaldeel waarmee domrechts dolblij is

Achter de deuren van verzamelplaatsen worden dieren structureel mishandeld. Na een ellendig leven in de bio-industrie worden ze geslagen en opgejaagd om ze zo snel mogelijk naar het slachthuis te krijgen. Verschrikkelijk voor de dieren 💔

Dat moet veranderen. Door een einde aan de bio-industrie.

A drone that brought food to Ukrainian Defenders on positions, brought back passengers - a cat and dog.

They flew 12 kilometers during their evacuation. The Defenders of 14th Separate Mechanized Brigade are taking care of them.

Iran's president is trying to preempt Trump's speech, appealing, in part, to American antisemitism.

aje.news/taks27?updat...
We have this letter, which the Iranian president addressed directly to the American people and the Iranian leaders are denying Trump’s claim he asked for a ceasefire. In the letter, instead, the Iranian president is reminding the Americans that Iran is not an aggressive nation. It is not a nation that has been waging wars against others near and far. Since the inception of the United States, and even before that, Iran hasn’t initiated a war against any foreign country. And these threats depicting Iran as a threat to the region and beyond is a constructive narrative in order to justify aggression on Iran. He also mentioned that, for him, the miserable fact is that the Americans are waging a proxy war on behalf of Israel. Remember, this letter is addressed not to Trump, but to the American people. Basically, Pezeshkian is trying to give what he thinks is the correct image of Iran as a friendly country in the region that is defending itself. A country that has the right to build its own weapons and the right to defend itself, considering that the Americans have been present in the region in a very, very strong and threatening manner.

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.
The Legislation Upon winning a general election, a Reform government under Prime Minister Nigel Farage will: 1) Leave the ECHR 2.) Repeal the Human Rights Act and replace it with a British Bill of Rights. 3.) Pass The Illegal Migration (Mass Deportation) Bill: This Bill will: Create a legal duty to remove illegal migrants for the Home Secretary The Bill opens with a blunt obligation for the Home Secretary: "The Secretary of State shall ensure the removal from the United Kingdom of each person who does not have extant leave to remain and is not an Irish citizen or otherwise protected by regulations made under this Act." The following parts of the legislation are introduced on an emergency basis, with an in-built sunset clause after 5 years: Disapply the 1951 Refugee Convention, the UN Convention Against Torture, the Council of Europe Anti-Trafficking Convention (ECAT) Derogation is justified under the Vienna Convention doctrine of state of necessity: Britain faces a national emergency in which uncontrolled illegal migration undermines public order. These treaties will otherwise be used by activist judges to frustrate deportations, even after the repeals of the HRA and ECHR. Create Detention Power Without Hardial Singh Constraints This means illegal migrants can be detained until they are deported. Activist lawyers routinely use Hardial Singh to secure their client's bail, after which the client absconds. If you came to the UK illegally, you are ineligible for asylum. End of story All asylum claims will become inadmissible if made by a person within the Act's scope. If you came to the country illegally, you are ineligible for asylum in the UK. This strips the Home Office, the immigration tribunals and the higher courts of jurisdiction to even consider claims. A claim that cannot be considered cannot suspend removal and therefore, cannot delay a flight. Re-entering after deportation and destroying ID becomes a serious criminal offence Re-entry after deportation will be… The Operational Plan We will create an enforcement unit called UK Deportation Command, including an Illegal Migrant Identification Centre - harnessing cutting edge data fusion A Reform government will create a cutting edge enforcement data centre to relentlessly identify and detain all illegal migrants in the UK. Using powers granted by the new legislation, it will automatically share data between the Home Office, NHS, HMRC, DVLA, banks and the police. It will power bulk warrants, including mandatory biometric capture during any police encounter. Each power addresses a failure mode observed over the past decade - for example, banks and GP surgeries unaware of a customer's status, or overstayers slipping through because a warrant covered only a single property. Secure Immigration Removal Centres (SIRC) will be built rapidly to detain up to 24,000 Detention capacity for up to 24,000 will be created within 18 months. The Home Office will build Secure Immigration Removal Centres. This will be modular accommodation built in remote parts of the country. Conditions are basic but not punitive: prefabricated two-person rooms, canteen catering, on-site medical suites. Robust perimeters and internal movement controls prevent escapes. This enables detention-on-arrest: no more bail. This capacity would allow for up to 24,000 illegal migrants to be deported per month. Initial Voluntary Return Window A six-month Assisted Voluntary Return window precedes large-scale raids. Illegal migrants will be offered a financial incentive to self-deport. An app will be launched to facilitate this. The Deportation Flights The Home Office will scale up charters to 5 flights per day. To guard against last-minute aircraft unserviceability, the RAF will keep one Voyager aircraft on six-hour 'hot-spare' readiness. If a commercial charter breaks down, detainees can still be flown out that night, preserving operational integrity. The legal reset will mean activist lawyers will no longer be able preven…

The EU and India signed a Free Trade Agreement.

It is supposed to double EU exports to India by 2032.

The Agreement is supposed to reduce/eliminate tariffs on almost all EU exports to India.

EU's tariffs on key industrial and manufactured products will be cut or removed.

Forum voor Democratie wil zich met Lidewij de Vos fatsoenlijker presenteren. Maar de jongerentak flirt opzichtig met extreemrechts.

De meeste Amerikanen hebben niet eens een paspoort.

De angst en het lijden dat Trump in de rest van de wereld veroorzaakt, is voor hen slechts televisiedrama.

Most of Kyiv is without electricity, there's not enough even for critical infrastructure after the Russian attacks.

Many are without heating, as well.

A lot of stores have to close because generators cannot cope in the cold.

Most trolleybuses and trams stopped due to lack of electricity.
