The Commission should deliver the promised deregulation VERY QUICKLY!. We don't have a second to lose. The USA is pulling further and further ahead every day. If we don't want our children begging to clean toilets in the USA, we need to fix the economy NOW.

RT @BeaLeydier: that is actually also true in North Korea.

The Brussels bubble will be furious - they got it wrong, again!. For all the passionate declarations of EU sovereignty, of trade bazookas, and that the EU would resist bullies, nothing happened. Everyone has meekly accepted tariffs and capitulated. Trump won. He always wins.

Too much. There are entire criminal industries that focus on defrauding the EU and hoovering up the money it distributes. If this is the case with 1.3 trillion, it's going to be a corruption bonanza at 2 trillion. Cut, cut, cut. Give that money back to the taxpayer.

RT @vtchakarova: How can you still trust all these top-notch Western analyses when they have been consistently wrong for months?.

The EU's budget for the foreseeable future will be unveiled today. The details are yet to be seen but everything so far points to a major crisis. The (rumoured) huge size of the budget is its own topic, but needless to say that placing higher burdens on member states to provide

Always fascinating to see Brussels through the eyes of someone who doesn't live here. The Brussels bubble types who coo and fawn over the city have never been to these areas and it's really remarkable how much the ignorance by choice bleeds over into EU policymaking.

PSOE down by 7 points thanks to infinity corruption scandals. It's Pedrover. The likelihood is now that the only S&D representation in the Council will be Malta by 2029 and a couple of junior coalition partnerships.

The dam is well and truly broken. The last remaining open border zealots will now be swept aside by the tide of public opinion. Only a year ago, this was a view that was considered dangerous and unacceptable. Now it is the mainstream. It's time to adapt, Brussels.

Everyone knew that the vote of confidence in VDL was a foregone conclusion. But the scale of the rebellion here is very important - only 360 coming out to support the Commission is far less than she would have liked. This will be seen as a milestone in the 24-29 mandate.

Felt sad reading @POLITICOEurope playbook today - which reads as a love story to the authors own politics and not the daily update that we all want. Not really surprised to see @Euractiv growth continue on its supercharged trajectory. Playbook has generally been much better for

Thierry Breton is literally using AI to draft responses to Elon 😂😂😂.

RT @pegobry_en: Imagine being 19 and describing yourself as a "social-democrat". Do you need some chamomile tea, grandpa?.

Eurofederalists, currently, are almost exclusively upper middle class leftists who abhor the idea of borders and nations. Those who hate nation states will never understand how to build one. That's why we get guff like 'Europe is a union of values!'.

I think that this is a fantastic development for post-Trump American politics. Frankly, yes, it should have been formed as a subsect of the Republican Party. But one of the world's smartest winners putting his chips down on small state ideas is beautiful to see.
