#Berlin News Digest: The closure of the TU main building isn't just an "infrastructure hiccup"—it's a symptom. 🏛️📉 When the halls of technology and engineering can't pass a fire inspection, the austerity logic has reached its breaking point. From schools to bridges, the "backlog" is becoming our primary landscape. #BND #Austerity #TUBerlin #SocialContract

@ChrisMayLA6 I don't want to live in a #political #economy where "bond vigilantes" dictate #policy - insist on #austerity, low #taxation of the #wealthy, minimum #regulation of #business, & restrictive #monetary policy to combat #inflation. I'll only get my way when #Capitalism is replaced by #socialism, or (rather more likely) the whole of #industrial #civilisation collapses. The latter will bring its own problems!

CBC is a big part of what makes us Canadian. Of course, that was never a good thing, but I'll still miss it anyway, for nostalgic reasons.
Watching Carney take a machete to the CBC after promising them more money, and thinking about all the Very Thoughtful "What is Canadian Culture, Guys?" roundtables I grew up listening to on the Ceeb.
You know, the ones where three white professional middle aged men and a white lady (and sometimes one other sort of person!) searched for the Meaning of What is Canadian Culture? They never ever settled on "Canadian culture isn't real because what is the culture of one long pillaging raid that destroys everything worth living for in a vast land of many peoples?"
Anyway I sure hope Mark leaves the CBC with enough $ to keep cluelessly wondering aloud about Canadian culture while watching their clueless "apolitical" CBC journalist friends' lives be destroyed by the cuts. I'd hate to lose that.

@thetimes“As the May 2026 local elections draw near, the Labour party’s fear of the Greens is written as clearly in its campaign as Keir Starmer’s brylcreemed vacuity. Just like its utter lack of substance, ideas, and integrity. And wow, did it show in the abject failure of its naked attempt to smear the Green party in a dire new video”

“Starmer is an overflowing political diaper that desperately needs changing”
by Rachael Swindon in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@uk_politics
@UKLabour“May I remind you, the man was elected on a platform of change — bold, principled, transformative change. Instead, we’ve got the same old rotten stench wafting from Downing Street: broken pledges on nationalising energy, U-turns on workers’ rights, grovelling to billionaires while the poor queue at food banks, and a foreign policy that makes Tony #Blair look like a fucking pacifist”

CW: Tony Blair Institute being callous and unrealistic about benefits
"Once again, the debate is being framed around the affordability of support rather than the affordability of a broken economic model that is making people ill.
"... Social security exists because people sometimes need security that is otherwise unavailable to them. A civilised society would ask why demand is rising and address the cause. It does not simply move the goalposts and declare fewer people eligible for help."

Impressive bit of #bicycle commuting from #Colchester to #Stowmarket (not without some personal safety risks - I've ridden the #Suffolk part of that journey myself on various occasions).
Metric first distance in the newspaper confirms he's used to #cycling and outdoor activity (its not uncommon in UK for cyclists to use metric on their navi apps/speed displays)
its quite an achievement (in another interview to GB News which I'm not going to link here he also suggests it was a way of getting over poor lifestyle choices and addictions after leaving the Army), but does also have a worrying overtone of dour #austerity

Research shows that growth-oriented strategies accompanied by redistribution policies are the most promising path to recovery across the Global South. Rather than imposing cookie-cutter #austerity programs, the International Monetary Fund ( #IMF ) should be following the evidence.

Foreign companies are making billions off Australia’s gas. It’s time that changed
"While the gas is extracted from beneath Australian soils, the profits go almost entirely to large multinational companies. Research suggests gas companies have made roughly $A149 billion from exports in just four years. Only a small percentage of this profit has been taxed."
"That’s why some politicians, think tanks and environmental groups are pushing for a 25% tax on gas exports.For decades, we’ve allowed foreign companies to earn billions of dollars from our gas sector, and to be taxed very little." >>

“Starmer's go-to excuse: 'I was in the dark'. Don't believe it. He's deeply in the loop”

“From Jimmy #Savile to Peter #Mandelson, Starmer has followed a trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance. He knows far more than he lets on. It's the reason, after all, why he was knighted.

“This is one long trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance and incompetence. Does any of it sound even vaguely plausible?”

“Journalist publishes full interview with suspended Labour MP”

@thecanary
@UKLabour
@uk_politics“On 31 March, we reported that Labour had suspended Karl Turner. Turner had criticised Labour’s plan to abolish jury trials as a universal right; he’d also given an interview to independent journalist and Canary contributor Jody McIntyre.
Following his suspension, Turner tried to distance himself from McIntyre. Now, McIntyre has set the record straight”

Should Canada Post make money? NDP’s new leader Avi Lewis doesn’t think so
NDP leader Avi Lewis is stirring debate after arguing Canada Post should be treated like an essential public service rather than a profit-driven corporation — just as the agency posts billions in losses and growing pressure over its future.

It's a weird time to be working at #LincolnUniversityNZ.
We've bounced back from the earthquakes and covid lockdowns and there's been an optimistic buzz in the air. The earthquake damaged buildings are mostly replaced and in the last few years Lincoln has had some of its highest enrolments ever. Last year it graduated the highest number of graduates in its 147 year history.
Ironically, getting more enrolments than expected has been bad because that doesn't equate to more government funding, which instead continues to decline in real terms. NZ universities receive about *a third* less funding than the OECD average.
The solution, we learned from the Vice Chancellor Grant Edwards yesterday, is that the university is going to have to lose 40 of it's about 700 staff. Presumably those that remain will, once again, need to pick up the slack.
This kind of austerity is squeezing the life out of NZ's universities. The same thing is happening to the science sector. NZ's newly combined Bioeconomy Science Institute also going through redundancies so it can survive on less government funding.
Please remember this at the upcoming election. Investing tax dollars in research and higher education is *good* for the country.

"“military Keynesian economics” is predicated on the assumption that “dead” capital spending on “defence” is a necessary stimulus to the economy.
This stuff is familiar to people in Britain. It comes from Establishment economists and politicians who argue the exact opposite in relation to investment in health, education, housing and other sectors."

“Rich right-wingers are calling for DWP [Department for Work and Pensions] cuts in order to pay for defence”
by Hannah Sharland in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@uk_politics
@UKLabour
@ZackPolanski“Right-wing warhawks have been doubling down on calls to slash Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) welfare to fund imperialistic warmongering against Iran.
Naturally, it’s the usual suspects spearheading the charge, namely opaquely-funded think tanks, the billionaire press, and of course, their co-conspirators in parliament.
And once again, these rich colonial capitalist assholes all want to make poor and disabled people cannon fodder for their illegal invasions.”
