I don’t think we should get used to a man this wealthy, this full of hate and this willing to demonize a small minority having so much power in our economy and in our politics. To defend democracy, we must defeat the oligarchs.

I am now safe after being detained and interrogated by Israeli forces and denied entry to Palestine alongside other activists and elected representatives. I will share a fuller statement tomorrow. The @scottishgreens.org stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine.

"Under Brazilian federal law, all legislators have immunity...To run for President, Bolsonaro decided not to run for his Senate seat. Now, after losing the Presidential election, he no longer has legislative immunity when his Senate term expires in January 2027." Very Special Episode of no amnesty

Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

And the freaking greatest thing I have ever seen: this intersection has a traffic signal that is set by DEFAULT for pedestrians and cyclists, cars have to activate to cross. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Slowly - too slowly - but surely, the tide is turning. #UKCarCulture is entering its terminal phase.

Ich finde es verstörend für wie wenig Aufsehen der rassistische Terroranschlag in Frankreich auslöst. Man stelle sich vor, ein arabisch stämmiger Mann hätte jemanden ermordet und 8mal auf ein kleines Mädchen geschossen - und nicht ein weißer Rechtsextremist. Internet & Boulevard würden brennen. 🔥

Schweiz erwägt #Tempolimit 80 (!) auf Autobahnen wegen Treibstoffmangels – Verkehrsminister Bilger @bmv-bund.bsky.social will lieber ungebremst weiterrasen. Dabei spart Tempo #100aufderAutobahn und 80 außerorts bis zu 4,7 Mrd. Liter Sprit pro Jahr. (1/2) www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/schw...

sueddeutsche.deIn der Schweiz werden Diesel und Kerosin knapp - Regierung prüft MaßnahmenWeil die Lage „angespannt“ ist, wird sogar ein Tempolimit von 80 Stundenkilometern auf Autobahnen geprüft. Gleichzeitig bleibt die Nachfrage hoch.

This beautiful cartoon by Dave Walker shows what happens when road design takes everyone into account, allowing people to cycle and walk safely and comfortably, while also giving space to those who need to drive 💌 Subscribe to Dave's newsletter: buff.ly/Cbw6mig

Die Student*innen haben in #Serbien von Beginn an eine Kultur vorgelebt, der sich immer mehr Menschen angeschlossen haben. Nach jeder Demo haben sie zB Straßen geputzt und teilweise sauberer als zuvor hinterlassen. So sind heute Belgrader*innen in den Park gegenüber vom Parlament, um ihn zu säubern.

Lasst uns ein europaweites Hochgeschwindigkeits-Bahnnetz bauen! Damit nicht jahrzehntelang gestritten werden muss, welche Häuser dafür enteignet werden müssen, gibt es eine einfache Lösung: Bauen wir sie auf Autobahntrassen. Die gibt es schon, und sie verbinden die größten Metropolen.

Brazil rejected Bolsonaro. Serbia's students beat Vučić. Machado is home in Venezuela. What a day for democracy.

Meanwhile, pro-democracy, pro-Europe protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are tonight nearing their 700th consecutive day of protest against the pro-Russian government. They haven't missed a single day in the last 23 months.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

Ja. Wären wir 1968 oder 1974 oder 1981, die Jugendlichen (die heutigen Boomer!) hätten angesichts der heutigen Politik alles kurz und klein geschlagen, Kaufhäuser angezündet, Barrikaden errichtet. Wut, Verzweiflung, Hass, alles wäre legitim.

Bin froh dass die Kids auf die Straße gehen und sie sind noch lange nicht wütend genug. Bei dem schrottigen Zustand der Welt die wir ihnen hinterlassen.

Ein Lehrstück in Sachen Arschkriechen: Audi-Chef Döllner macht den Bückling auf Trumps Hass-Bühne, bettelt um Verbrenner-Subventionen und opfert daheim 15.000 Jobs in Neckarsulm. Wo ein Rechter regiert, kriechen deutsche Automanager mit Wonne bis zum Anschlag hinein.

45 Minuten Trump-Hetze, dann dankt Audi-Chef Döllner auf der Bühne: 4 Mrd. Dollar für Q7, Q8, Q9 in Georgia. Kein E-Auto. Daheim steht Neckarsulm vor dem Aus. Das fossile Endspiel von Managern, denen nur noch die Boni zählen, nicht die Zukunft ihrer Konzerne. #FossilePanik

Many areas of Glasgow are under water following the excessive rain brought by Storm Boelo. But for many southsiders, flooding is nothing new. The White Cart used to routinely burst its banks, inundating surrounding streets with water. 📷 Newsquest #Glasgow

Liebe Empörungsblase, es werden weitere #Enteignungen geplant … durch den CDU-Verkehrsminister für zusätzliche Autobahnspuren in #Bonn. Was ist schon Wohnraum, wenn man eine durchgehende Standspur schaffen will?

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

Messing around with clocks every year "so it's safe for kids to walk to school" is yet another casual widespread acceptance that people driving cars won't do so safely
