offsite link Is Rishi Sunak English? Thu Feb 27, 2025 16:13 | Eric Kaufmann
Is Rishi Sunak English? Prof Eric Kaufmann says yes, by nationality, but not by ethnicity. It's a subject that typically produces more heat than light, but that's because people don't pin down their terms.

We are at a critical moment. Ever more people are coming to the view that Net Zero is a terrible idea. But the Government is clinging to it at all costs. A new film seeks to puncture the groupthink.

With war against Iraq just hours away its now time to up the ante. The minute war starts myself and some people are going to occupy key buildings in Dublin. Near where I work there are at least 7 buildings that I can think off that will have key strategic and propaganda importance by occupying them. Among these buildings are the GPO on O'Connell Street, the Savoy Cinema and the various American burger joints on O'Connell Street. Not only are many of these places owned by American multinationals, but as in the case of the GPO, these buildings are used extensively by US and UK tourists. We have spoken to many of the workers in these buildings and they are fully supportive of our Non Violent Direct Action (NVDA). Bad times call for drastic action (NVDA). Let us know what other NVDAs that you are planning to do and what buildings ... read full story / add a comment

I don't think the developments in central-southern-easten europe have been given much attention on the newswire in these hot pre-war times. Towards none, I should say. Which might be a pitty, because an interesting new fault line is designing in that area, between western Europe as a potential development partner falling quickly from favors, and the aggressively self-imposing US, who became suddenly interested in pushing the agenda of NATO integration for countries kept until now at the doors of Europe. ... read full story / add a comment
