    Boris Palmer ist schon häufig durch seine Äußerungen zur Migration, den Corona-Maßnahmen oder der Sprachpolitik aufgefallen. Nach einem Eklat am Wochenende hat er am Montag bekannt gegeben, sich eine Auszeit zu nehmen und die Grünen zu verlassen. Nils Markwardt aus dem Kulturressort von ZEIT ONLINE findet: Mit seinem vorübergehenden Rückzug aus der Politik bedient Palmer ein altbekanntes Muster. Bundesverkehrsminister Volker Wissing (FDP) und die Letzte Generation treffen sich heute in Berlin, um über Klimapolitik zu sprechen. Im Vorfeld des Treffens haben sich beide Seiten gegenseitig kritisiert: Laut der Letzten Generation tue Wissing nicht genug, um die Klimaziele einzuhalten. Wissing hingegen findet, dass die Protestgruppe "wenig sinnvolle Vorschläge" für den Klimaschutz mache. Außenministerin Annalena Baerbock (Grüne) hat zum Start des Petersberger Klimadialogs mitgeteilt, dass der Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energien höchste Priorität habe, um das 1,5-Grad-Ziel doch noch zu erreichen. Bei dem Treffen zwischen Vertreterinnen und Vertretern aus über 40 Staaten wird die UN-Klimakonferenz vorbereitet, die Ende des Jahres in Dubai stattfindet. Was noch?

    Chris Johns is a regular contributor to Eamon Dunphy's The Stand podcast and he also writes regularly about politics and economics. More recently he has launched his own podcast with fellow economist Jim Power, called ‘The Other Hand'. I read and listen to his work regularly and always find him to be highly intelligent, wonderful with words, and very insightful about a lot of the issues I find fascinating – like who or what is ‘the markets' and why do they seem to exert so much control over all of us? How did the UK become such a basket case so quickly? Why do economists get paid so much to make predictions that 90% of the time turn out to be wrong? There was so much I wanted to ask Chris that we ended up talking for almost 2 hours, so we've decided to chop it up into two parts for you. This is part 1 in which we learn about Chris early life and how he was the first of his family to go to University, how he ended up being able to semi-retire at 55, his brilliant take on Boris Johnson and UK politics, why economists should never get paid to make predictions, why Facebook should never have been allowed to get so big, and lots more.

    It was the sermon that brought down a government. Last autumn, Rev Les Isaac gave an address at the annual Parliamentary Prayer Breakfast which resulted in a string of resignations, ultimately resulting in Boris Johnson standing down as Prime Minister. In this episode of The Profile, Sam Hailes meets the Rev Les Isaac who not only gave that sermon but has also founded one of the UK Church's most successful outreach projects. Street Pastors is a simple idea - teams of Christians from all denominations patrolling city streets late at night in order to take care of vulnerable people and be a practical display of Christ's love within the night-time economy. The pair also discuss why Les gets "bored" inside church and how preachers can better connect with their congregations.    You can also read this interview in the latest issue of Premier Christianity.

He also drew laughs by saying that he would become a booster rocket, which will “come down invisibly in some remote and obscure corner of the Pacific”. But could these strands of good humour be woven together to reveal the outline of an elected comeback in the land from “sea to shining sea”? (https://www.nationalworld.com/opinion/could-boris-johnson-theoretically-run-us-president-prime-minister-dual-citizenship-3833395) In this video, Andrew explains could Boris Johnson be the 47th US president.

    Progressive technocrats with an eye towards top-down control have several strategies that they employ that will allow them to continue to move the Overton window towards eventual autocratic control and away from established liberty-minded social contracts: Aggressive overthrows of federal and local governments through the seizure of election processes, judicial appointments and control of corporate partners to create pathways around legal structures. Fabian strategies of becoming a “wolf in sheep's clothing” by masking true intentions with rightist, populist rhetoric to gain grassroots support that will eventually lead to the same policies advocated by progressive globalists. A technocracy, to put it simply, is a form of governance that can be boiled down to a “rule by experts.” A broader definition of a technocracy can be described as “A form of government in which the decision-maker or makers are selected based on their expertise in a given area of responsibility, particularly with regard to scientific or technical knowledge.”(Berndt, Ernst R. (1982)) A technocracy explicitly contrasts with a constitutional, representative democracy: the notion that elected representatives should be the primary decision-makers in government. Techno-populism has been on the rise in Europe over the past several years with candidates and entire political parties gaining the trust of men and women frustrated with the autocratic drift of their nations. While there have been some examples of Techno-populism that have grassroot beginnings and honest intentions, many techno-populist movements have been hijacked by corporate and globalist interests that grift off of authentic and real concerns such as the rise of “woke” politics and culture within our world. Sadly, many of the recent “conservative” victories by techno-populists have been anything but conservative with technocrats such as Giorgia Meloni, Boris Johnson and Glenn Youngkin securing victories in Italy, the U.K. and Virginia. These techno-populist lure the voting public in with well-tuned rhetoric but then eventually lead with an eye towards globalist, authoritarian, top-down control. https://sovereignnations.com Support Sovereign Nations: https://paypal.me/sovnations https://patreon.com/sovnations Follow Sovereign Nations: https://sovereignnations.com/subscribe/ © 2023 Sovereign Nations.

    In 2015, Intelligence Squared staged the ultimate clash of civilisations: Greece vs Rome. Boris Johnson, at that time Mayor of London and ardent classicist, made the case for Greece; while Mary Beard, today Lecturer in Classical Archaeology at the University of Sheffield and known for her extensive career as a broadcaster and writer, championed Rome. As we revisit this archive debate held in the pre-Brexit, pre-pandemic era, it's fascinating to observe how history would soon be shaped by some of the figures on stage and whose actions are the subject of much divisive debate today. Our host for the event was the journalist and broadcaster, Andrew Marr.  We'd love to hear your feedback and what you think we should talk about next, who we should have on and what our future debates should be about.

    In the 1940s, Republicans appeasing a fascist dictator were led in the media by an ambitious young man named Charles Lindbergh. Today's GOP follows, and fears Tucker Carlson. Could World War III possibly start thanks to Tucker Carlson? Even Conservative Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is concerned by how much control Tucker Carlson has over the Republican Party.
