"The drafting of the text of the Berlin declaration was a case of backroom diplomacy, without any civil society participation. This does not allow for a convincing democratic argument in favour of the statement and it logically follows that the declaration completely ignores the fact that millions of people in the EU are living in poverty, coping with unemployment and social exclusion" Gabi Zimmer (GUE/NGL Germany) said in today's European Parliament debate with Chancellor Merkel on the issue. read full story / add a comment

A new ‘probability-based’ report, prepared for England’s Ministry of Defence by Rear Admiral Chris Parry, warns of the dangers to political stability which may present themselves during the 2030s. Competition for scarce resources and climate change in a context of growing population will fuel the continuing conflict in the Middle East and possibly give rise to conflict between Islam and an economically-vibrant and still-atheist China. ‘Terrorism’ will be facilitated by technological developments.
