German Anti-immigrant Party Beats Merkel's Party in Her Home State


REUTERS.COM: German Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative Christian Democrats fell to third place in a state election on Sunday behind the centre-left Social Democrats (SPD) and anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, TV projections showed.

In a stinging defeat for Merkel in her home district one year ahead of federal elections, the upstart AfD won 21.4 percent of the vote in their first election in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern by campaigning hard against the chancellor's policies on refugees, according to a projection by ZDF TV at 1615 GMT.

"This isn't pretty for us," said Michael Grosse-Groehmer, one of Merkel's top deputies in parliament in Berlin in a ZDF TV interview. "Those who voted for the AfD were sending a message of protest." » | By Erik Kirschbaum and Andrea Shalal | BERLIN | Sunday, September 4, 2016

Ausverkauf Europa – Doku


Von Parks und Kulturdenkmälern bis hin zu Wäldern und Bergen – die Privatisierung von staatlichem Eigentum wird zunehmend zu einem Instrument, das zur Sanierung angeschlagener Haushalte in Europa dienen soll.

Margaret Thatcher Would Not Have Supported Brexit, Says Top Aide


THE GUARDIAN: Lord Powell says Eurosceptic former prime minister would always have preferred to battle the EU from within, whatever the scale of her frustrations

Margaret Thatcher would never have supported Error! Hyperlink reference not valid. or the holding of an in/out referendum, her longest-serving and most trusted former foreign policy adviser has told the Observer.

Lord Powell of Bayswater, who was at Thatcher’s side during her most epic confrontations with Brussels during the 1980s, said the Eurosceptic former prime minister would always have preferred to battle the EU from within, whatever the scale of her frustrations, rather than opening the door to exit.

“Of course she got fed up with it, but I don’t believe that as prime minister she would ever have campaigned to take Britain out of Europe or had a referendum to allow that to happen,” he said. “She wanted to change Europe and she set out to change it with great vigour, but I don’t believe she would have chosen this way and she would have avoided getting trapped by the referendum promise.

“She never had any truck with referendums and frequently spoke out against them.” » | Toby Helm | Saturday, September 3, 2016
