Lesson from the 1930s and 1940s:

Believe what fascist say. When they get the chance, they’ll do it.

(To paraphrase Hannah Arendt)

Groenen winnen verkiezingen in VK en Duitsland. Maar het gaat in het nieuws vooral over de zetels voor ReformUK en AfD i

Vroeger ging het nieuws over wat er nieuw is. Dat is toch echt de opkomst van Groen....

[1/2] Politiek is te veel geroep, met weinig verandering. Herkenbaar? πŸ™„

Bij Volt doen we het anders. Of het nu gaat over het klimaat, de economie of onze toekomst in Europa? Wij kiezen voor slimme, duurzame, wetenschappelijke oplossingen i.p.v. dogma’s en leugens.

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

heb je ook rond 18.50 (zo 8 mrt) de heldere vuurbol gezien die over oa duitsland en nederland bewoog? meld dat dan op werkgroepmeteoren.nl/vuurbol-meld..., en stuur ook evt foto's/filmpjes. zo kan de baan berekend worden en kunnen er misschien meteorieten worden gevonden!

A film crew from ARTE followed me around for a few days to talk about the monthly commute between Brussels and Strasbourg (spoiler alert: I’m against it!), but also about the juggle of dad life and work life. πŸ’œ

We zijn veel te afhankelijk van Amerikaanse Big Tech. Daar moeten we vanaf. Laat het parlement en de overheid hierin een leidende rol nemen.

Day 404 of the Trump administration: the US attacks Iran. As if we needed the hint to see the error in his ways.

1.2 million Europeans raised their voices, and Europe listened! πŸ’–

One powerful initiative of My Voice My Choice with a single aim: ensuring every woman has access to safe and accessible abortion care. A huge step forward for women and for European democracy.

1.2 million Europeans signed the My Voice My Choice European Citizens’ Initiative to defend access to abortion. Citizens organizing across borders and speaking with one voice.
The ball is now in the Commission’s court. Time to show European democracy listens and protects safe abortion across the EU.

Big day for European democracy. A chance to stand up for women’s access to safe abortion.

My Voice My Choice is the most successful Citizens’ Initiative yet: 1.2 million signed and countless volunteers made it happen.
Β 
Over to you, Commission. Show Europeans that their voices are heard!

OrbΓ‘n’s standoff with EU over €90B Ukraine loan escalates Hungarian leader stands firm on refusal to back Kyiv despite letter from EU Council chief.

The EU’s €90B is a lifeline for Ukraine.

Without it they can’t pay soldiers, doctors, civil servants, or service debt. OrbΓ‘n blocking it now is outrageous. Europe must stop being held hostage: suspend his voting rights and end the veto blackmail.

A political campaign graphic for "My Voice, My Choice" features a person sitting against a vibrant purple background.  The top-left corner has a dark purple box with large white text that reads "VOLT MEPs DO SAY YES!" alongside a link icon and the text "link in description."  Below this, a light pink gradient box contains the text, "The European Commission DOESN'T want to say YES to My Voice, My Choice." Underneath, the word "SIGN" is written in large, bold red letters, followed by "and convince them to change their mind." At the bottom, a small black logo reads "MY VOICE MY CHOICE."

Europe cannot afford veto games, especially when lives are at stake.
Β 
We need a Europe that can act.
A Union that stands by Ukraine.
Without being blocked by OrbΓ‘n.

On my way to listen, to learn, and to show that many Europeans do stand with Ukraine. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

De kopvoddentaks, het sluiten van moskeeΓ«n, het verbieden van heilige boeken en ga zo maar verder waren allemaal helemaal prima, maar bij FvD trekken we een grens. Die grens was al lang overschreden bij de opkomst van andere populistische partijen in de afgelopen twee decennia.

Weet je wie nog meer…

…flirte met nazisme?
…op feestjes nazi-liederen zong?
…ook nazi’s in de partij had?
…dezelfde ideeΓ«n uitdroeg als nazi’s?

Besef je hoe stupide het klinkt om voortdurend te doen alsof hij zelf geen nazi was?

FvD β€œflirt” niet met fascisme.
FvD -is- een neofascistische partij.
