Sunday’s election will determine Brazil's, L. America's & the Amazon rainforest's fate. In a sane world, the world would have united against Trump's & Zuckerberg’s escalating efforts to bring Bolsonaro back to power. This world looks the other way. progressive.international/wire/2026-10...

In this week's Econoclasts, Wolfgang & I interpret Trump’s Russian diesel deal as a permanent rift within NATO. We also debunk the myth of French fiscal incompetence, arguing instead that France’s €3.6 trillion debt crisis is a structurally inevitable flaw of the €. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrHN...

Mélenchon Is Right About France’s Debt. When, in the name of moderation, centrists brand every sensible alternative to severe austerity as “nonsense,” they leave voters only one electable rebellion on offer, and the far right is happy to supply it. www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/s...

Greetings from Occupied Athens. As Marco Rubio is visiting, we are in lockdown. The boss of our rulers demanded that Athenians are under lock and key so that he feels safe as he inspects his troops. One day we shall be free again. But not today. www.ekathimerini.com/politics/for...

In the first episode of Radical Thinking, a new series from the Guardian, I discuss with Aditya Chakrabortty how powerbrokers co-opt elected officials, rendering our democracies demos-free zones. Also my assessment of Andy Burnham's plans to 'rewire' the UK economy www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ72...

Στο τελευταίο επεισόδιο των «Econoclasts», ο Βόλφγκανγκ αναλύει τις πρόσφατες εκλογικές ήττες του CDU, ενώ, στο δεύτερο μέρος, υποστηρίζω ότι για την βαθειά κρίση της Ευρώπης ευθύνεται κυρίως η Κεντροαριστερά www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol0h...
In the latest episode of The Econoclasts, Wolfgang dissects the recent CDU electoral disasters while, in the second segment, I argue that Europe's wholesale slump needs to be blamed primarily on the compromised, defeated, co-opted Centre Left www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol0h...
The AI Productivity Delusion: As with previous tech revolutions, it is natural to focus on AI's net effects: Will it create more than it destroys? But unlike previous eras of creative destruction, the real question this time is, “Create more of what?” www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/a...
Only an Uncompromised Left Can Defeat the Fascists. The ‘Radical Centre’ has lost control of the crisis it helped inflame and, so, the far right is on the march across Europe. The only anti-fascist economics that can stop it is an unambiguously socialist economics. zeteo.uk/p/when-the-l...
Yes Mr Macron. Gaza shamed you all. And it will continue to shame you as long as your complicity with Israel's genocide continues, because of (rather than despite) your crocodile tears at the UN. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/...

Of all the blueprints I have read on how to redress the long-term damage austerity and financialisation have inflicted upon Britain's society, this one is the most impressive - and hope inspiring. A must read.
Four years ago tomorrow was the Truss mini-budget. Every day another news story says Britain is under pressure from global instability. Why can’t we just build homes, and clean energy, with secure jobs? Turns out the answer is even better than I thought. See what you think. HostageNation.com

Το πέρασμα της από αυτό τον κόσμο άφησε τις Ελληνίδες πιο ελεύθερες, ανεξάρτητες, ικανές να ορίζουν τις τύχες τους. Στην Μαργαρίτα Παπανδρέου αξίζουν τιμές που κάποια στιγμή θα αποδοθούν. Θα μου λειψει η σκέψη της φυσικής της παρουσίας. Και θα την κρατώ στη σκέψη μου. www.news247.gr/ellada/petha...
In this episode of The Econoclasts, Wolfgang & I expose the hypocrisy of AI techlords calling for their own 'containment'. In reality their apocalyptic warnings are marketing ploys and attempts at getting governments to release them from anti-trust regulation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOzi...
Has she lost the very last of her remaining marbles? Ms von der Leyen offered Canada associate membership of the EU. That would have been fine if it were not for a tiny little snag: there is no such thing as associate membership of the EU! www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

"This is a film about a system. It focuses on orders, policies, and patterns of operation, not deviations from them. The mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza was not a “tragic byproduct” of a war against Hamas, but a premeditated, calculated, intentional act." www.972mag.com/naza-exposin...
