Mercedes Benz city in Dubai.
Can anyone explain to me why we are rolling back EU law for Mercedes-Benz et al, again..?
"win"...
How many antacids does he take?
Well then we better clarify exactly what the EPP/ECR position on EU law is, then...

Do think there's a point missing even here with regard to US / Iran... which is that we have international law for a purpose, as the collected wisdom of many years as to what is and is not generally a good idea. It wasn't just set down by bad guys to stop the good ones.
Germanys self-destructive nuclear phase-out hurts again as a new Iran gas shock looms.
JPM: “Had Germany not phased out nuclear power, it would have generated 50% less electricity from fossil fuels, 84% less electricity from natural gas in 2024. Electricity prices would have been 25% lower.”

We have mobilised full humanitarian response across region and will meet this moment. But humanitarians are being asked to do too much with too little, while politicians pour oil on fire and boast of spending billions on war while aid budgets are slashed.
While defunding the deployment of scientific power against the "cancer" of cancer.
As happens to many people, I have been feeling very underappreciated, put-upon and unfairly at the receiving end of circumstance lately. Seeing the skiers today at the Paralympics brave those slopes however put that into perspective, however. My complaints are humbled.
Who doesn't love a bit of state cops...
Lovely photo. Thank you for sharing!
But this stuff is important. International law is not only or arguably even mostly NGOs at the UN. The laws of war are fundamental and its architects were pragmatic people who accepted that wars were going to happen regardless of the law.
A great replacement theory that is actually true...?
The law concerning the legality of a given war and the laws governing the practice of war are separate. There is a good reason for this. Even if the war itself is illegal, the combatants still have to obey the laws of war.
EU businesses' lobbying effort to water down pay transparency law fails
Or some of the people walking into that stadium are blind or severely disabled competitors who’ve spent years overcoming severe hardship and prejudice just to train to reach the Paralympics. Many can’t vote their government out of office, and none started wars they are often the hidden victims of.
My expert advise is to not stand next to an open door when you have ballistic missiles incoming, no matter how well your video will do on the internet.
Right now would be a great time to rollback green mandates
Describing a blind Russian Paralympian as a "huge propaganda Victory" ...
The #Channel4 commentators are talking about anything except the Paralympians. It is like they are treating it as a podcast, and frankly this is showing such disrespect towards the global Paralympians who have worked so hard to be here.
I have looked forwards to the opening ceremony of the winter #Paralympics but the #Channel4 commentators not only won't STFU but won't STFU about the inclusion of Russian and Belarusian athlètes.

Thank you for this one...
The Cosplay tho...
