🇫🇷 Nu är det dags för avgörande i #Frankrike!
Idag röstar parlamentet om Emmanuel Macrons förslag till pensionsreform och insatserna är höga. Blir det ett nej väntar regeringskris och kanske nyval.
Direktrapporterar här på Mastodon under dagen.
Hålltider:
- Förmiddag: Senaten röstar (mest en formalitet, väntas bli ja).
- 12.30 Fackliga ledare samlas för att demonstrera utanför nationalförsamlingen.
- 15.00 Nationalförsamlingen inleder avgörandet. Omröstning sen eftermiddag. Ännu oklar utgång.

Today we sent a total of 705 brochures, to all the members of the EU Parliament.

Just in case they have missed that the EU Commission's chat control proposal violates human rights. We urge them all to vote no.

Thank you in advance

Greetings! This is a humble request for you to subscribe to my new, open source, Ghost-powered blog at https://freethinkeratlarge.com. This will add you to my mailing list so that whenever I post something, hopefully once a week, you'll get an email telling you about it. This is all free, but Ghost is part of what's called a 'creator economy platform' so you'll see an option to financially support me but that's not necessary. I would be honoured to simply count you among my readers.

"A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you." https://twitter.com/GaryLineker/status/1635221458661285889?s=20

Dags för min senaste krönika i Borås Tidning, som handlar om den senaste årsrapporten från forskningsinstitutet V-dem om demokratins tillstånd och utveckling. Den borde ses som obligatorisk läsning av dem som värnar demokratin – eller inte tar hoten mot demokratin på allvar.
