Referendum, ktoré iniciovali opozičné strany na čele so Smerom-SD síce nebolo úspešné, no podľa politológa Erika Láštica výsledok ukazuje, aké majú opozičné strany silne jadro voličov. „Východisková pozícia je pre súčasnú opozíciu veľmi dobrá. Výsledok referenda sa nedá vysvetliť inak, než ako výrazné varovanie pre strany či už súčasnej vládnej koalície alebo tie, ktoré ju tvorili v roku 2022," hovorí v podcaste politológ Erik Láštic. Bývalí koaliční lídri sa zároveň cez víkend dohodli na termíne predčasných volieb - na september. „Vnímam celkom problematicky, ako sa k tomu postavili strany bývalej koalície. Nie sú schopné vytvoriť novú funkčnú väčšinu, ale chcú zostať vo funkcii do konca septembra. Je to pomerne dlhá doba. Viem si živo predstaviť, že keby takáto situácia nastala napríklad počas tretej vlády Roberta Fica, tak by opozícia hnala ľudí na námestia,“ myslí si tiež Erik Láštic. Septembrové voľby môžu podľa politológa znamenať obrovskú výzvu pre súčasné vládne strany, aby sa priblížili poslednému výsledku vo voľbách alebo sa vôbec do parlamentu dostali. No otvára to dvere aj novým projektom. „Môže to byť šancou, súčasne aj rizikom pre iné strany - či tie, ktoré sú mimo parlamentu alebo pre zoskúpenia, o ktorých sa diskutuje a mali by ponúknuť alternatívu vládnej koalícii, ale aj opozíci." Generálny prokurátor Maroš Žilinka minulý týždeň cez paragraf 363 zrušil obvinenie poslancovi Martinovi Borguľovi. V druhej téme podcastu sa s novinárkou Aktualít Laurou Kellöovou pozrieme na to, ako to generálny prokurátor zdôvodnil v uznesení. Podcast pripravili Denisa Hopková a Denisa Žilová.
Co vyplývá ze dvou nejnovějších volebních modelů a jak se oba prezidentští kandidáti snaží ovlivnit váhající voliče? Je neplatné referendum na Slovensku o předčasných volbách fiaskem, nebo úspěchem opozice? Co pro Číňany symbolizuje vodní Zajíc, jehož rok právě začíná?
1. Prezidentka sa obula do paragrafu 363, pošle ho na Ústavný súd. 2. Referendum: 224 slov v otázke, 10-miliónová cenovka, nulová šanca na úspech. 3. A čo by ste urobili vy, keby sme boli vo vojne?
IN THE PRESS – Monday, 16.01.2023: We take a look at how the French press is covering plans by major labour unions to hold strike action on Thursday, January 19. We also find out about a Paris referendum on scooters, a mass kidnapping in Burkina Faso, varied views on Martin Luther King Jr Day (including a controversial statue) and finally, why Blue Monday isn't really a thing.

Hľadanie novej 76tky je podľa komentátora denníka Pravda Mariána Repu nesplniteľná misia. Šanca, že dočasne poverený premiér Eduard Heger získa hlasy SaS je veľmi malá a bude to mať ťažké aj u Sme rodina. Jedinou reálnou možnosťou ako z tohto chaosu von tak zostáva dohoda na predčasných voľbách. V komentovanom prehľade politicko-spoločenských udalostí týždňa Počúvajte Pravdu sa tiež rozprávame o: prečo môže byť referendum iniciované Smerom pre koalíciu nebezpečné, aj keď nebude úspešné ako môžu zamiešať karty nové strany a snaha spájanie malých strán či môže Eduard Heger napodobiť dráhu Petra Pellegriniho prečo o Hlase hovoríme ako o „Sme rodine opozície“ #pocuvajtepravdu
1. Pellegrini nechá bojovať Fica. 2. OĽaNO žije skôr vo fantazijnom ako v reálnom svete. 3. Najväčšia diera je Prievidza. Alebo Trebišov?

Į LRT girdi kreipėsi vilnietis, kuris skundžiasi, kad daugiabučio kieme švaistoma požeminėmis šilumos trasomis keliaujanti šiluma. Anot jo, tai matoma ne pirmą kartą: įšilęs gruntas tirpdo sniegą, o tai kelia klausimų, ar toks šilumos išgaravimas nėra nuostolingas gyventojams. Kodėl šalyje yra tokių probleminių vietų ir kokios tai turi įtakos gyventojų sąskaitoms, aiškinasi Vilius Narkūnas.Europos Sąjungos energetikos ministrai šiandien tarsis, kokia turėtų būti dujų kainų viršutinė riba. Pokalbis su korespondentu Briuselyje ir ekonomistu Algirdu Bartkumi.Lietuvos politinės partijos iš esmės sutaria dėl daugybinės pilietybės referendumo ir galutinė siūloma formuluotė, tikimasi, Seimui bus pristatyta iki kitų metų kovo mėnesio. Referendumą dėl Konstitucijos pataisų daugybinei pilietybei įteisinti planuojama surengti kartu su 2024-ais metais vyksiančiais prezidento rinkimais.

Connaissez-vous notre site ? www.lenouvelespritpublic.frUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 16 décembre 2022.Avec cette semaine :Michel Winock, historien et écrivain.Jean-Louis Bourlanges, président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.Michel Eltchaninoff, rédacteur en chef du mensuel Philosophie Magazine.Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.LES CRISES ET LEURS LEÇONS, AVEC MICHEL WINOCKMichel Winock, votre carrière d'historien est celle d'un professeur, d'un chercheur, d'un éditeur et d'un collaborateur de revues. Agrégé d'histoire, docteur ès lettres, après un passage dans le secondaire, vous êtes devenu professeur à l'université expérimentale de Vincennes, avant d'entrer en 1979 à Sciences Po où vous avez occupé la chaire d'Histoire des idées politiques. En parallèle, vous collaborez à la revue Esprit et, aux Éditions du Seuil, vous dirigez ou co-dirigez diverses collections avant de fonder en 1978 le magazine l'Histoire. Votre nom est associé à l'âge d'or de l'édition historique. Vous publiez de nombreux ouvrages historiques sur la République ou des biographies politiques, comme celle de Clémenceau, ou littéraires, comme celle de Mme de Staël. Cette année, une partie de votre œuvre profuse sur la France et ses gouvernants est regroupée dans un ouvrage des éditions Quarto chez Gallimard intitulé : « Gouverner la France ».« La Fièvre Hexagonale » est un des ouvrages centraux de ce recueil. Il paraît à l'origine en 1986, et reprend les thèmes de votre thèse intitulée : « Crises et idées de crise en France, 1871-1968 ». Il s'agit d'une tentative de conceptualiser les « grandes crises politiques » en s'appuyant sur les exemples français entre la Commune de Paris et Mai 68. Chaque crise est remise dans son contexte et racontée jusqu'à ses retombées plus lointaines. On découvre à travers elles les grandes questions autour desquelles la France et son peuple se sont déchirés. Il y a la problématique religieuse, centrale lors des législatives de 1877. Il y a la question sociale, pendant et après la Commune de Paris, puis lorsqu'une partie des ouvriers, las des promesses non tenues des radicaux soutînt le boulangisme. Il y a la question nationale qui court le 19ème et le début du 20ème siècle.A partir de 1958, la nouvelle République gaullienne, surtout axée sur l'exécutif, semblait siffler la fin du déchirement français sur les institutions. L'élection du président de la République au suffrage universel comblait le goût français du plébiscite et l'alternance gauche-droite devenait possible.Aujourd'hui, au terme d'une année 2022 électoralement mouvementée, la Vème République apparaît moins solide. La montée de l'extrême droite, de l'abstention, des affaires, l'explosion du modèle gauche-droite semblent mettre à mal la stabilité du système politique. L'Assemblée est profondément divisée et le gouvernement ne parvient à imposer sa politique qu'à l'aide de l'article 49-3. Dans le même temps, la revendication d'un Referendum d'Initiative Citoyenne, portée par les Gilets Jaunes, est soutenue par 73% des Français. En 2018, à l'occasion des soixante ans de la Vème République, 53% des Français déclaraient voulait passer à la VIème alors que 51% souhaitaient accorder davantage de pouvoir à l'Assemblée nationale. C'est sur ces questions actuelles de refondation que vous vous étiez penché en 2015, dans un rapport codirigé avec Claude Bartolone, intitulé « Refaire la démocratie ». Ces travaux avaient pour thèmes : restaurer le lien entre les citoyens et leurs représentants, redéfinir l'équilibre entre les pouvoirs exécutifs et législatifs, contrôler le cumul des mandats, renforcer l'État de droit. Dans les 17 propositions du rapport on trouve une volonté visible de nuancer la domination de l'exécutif, dans un régime que beaucoup appellent encore : « une monarchie présidentielle ».Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Von der Energiestrategie über Strassenprojekte bis zum Service public: Im Departement des neuen SVP-Bundesrates Albert Rösti kommen Schlüsseldossiers zusammen. Ist nun mit einer neuen Ausrichtung zu rechnen? Die Debatte dazu in der «Arena» mit Umwelt- und Verkehrspolitikerinnen. Das Kürzel Uvek steht für das vielseitige Umwelt-, Verkehr-, Energie- und Kommunikationsdepartement. Dass es nun in den Händen der SVP ist, gilt als Coup. Röstis Partei sprach von einem Wechsel, der den «energiepolitischen Blindflug» stoppe. Für die Grünen ist der neue Vorsteher «ein Alptraum für Klima- und Umweltschutz». Gibt es eine neue Energie-, Umwelt- und Medienpolitik? Oder ist Röstis Einfluss gar nicht so gross? Falls das Referendum gegen den indirekten Gegenvorschlag zur Gletscherinitiative zustande kommt, muss Albert Rösti als Umweltminister gleich bei seiner ersten Abstimmung gegen die eigene Partei antreten. Beim ehemaligen Präsidenten von «Auto Schweiz» ist auch das Bundesamt für Strassen angesiedelt. Ist künftig von mehr Investitionen ins Strassennetz auszugehen? Oder bleibt die Bahn auch künftig ein zentraler Teil der Verkehrspolitik? Albert Rösti war bis anhin Vizepräsident im Komitee der sogenannten Halbierungsinitiative, die den Serafe-Beitrag auf 200 Franken senken will. Die SP kündigte an, sie werde den neuen Uvek-Vorsteher «bis aufs Letzte bekämpfen», wenn er einen SRG-Abbau unterstütze. Steht ein Angriff auf den Service public bevor? Oder führt Bundesrat Rösti die Medienpolitik des Bundesrates fort? Zu diesen Fragen begrüsst Sandro Brotz in der «Arena»: – Monika Rüegger, Nationalrätin SVP/OW; – Jon Pult, Vizepräsident SP; – Andri Silberschmidt, Vizepräsident FDP; und – Florence Brenzikofer, Vizepräsidentin Grüne.

Strom und Wasserstoff sind die Energieträger der Zukunft. Zu diesem Schluss kommt eine Studie über den Energieverbrauch in der Schweiz bis ins Jahr 2050. Benzin, Diesel und Heizöl hingegen werden immer unwichtiger. Weitere Themen: Grossbritannien steht eine chaotische Weihnachtszeit bevor. Gleich mehrere Branchen drohen mit Streik, wenn die Löhne nicht der rasant steigenden Inflation angepasst werden. Das bedeutet nicht nur Chaos, sondern ebenso eine Zerreissprobe für die Regierung. Der Nationalrat hat am Dienstag der Einführung der sogenannten «Tonnagesteuer» zugestimmt. Eine Mehrheit des Parlaments sieht in der Vorlage ein Instrument, um Schiffahrts-Unternehmen attraktiver zu machen. SP, Grüne und GLP drohen bereits mit dem Referendum.

Max Pearson presents a compilation of this week's Witness History programmes from the BBC World Service. We go to Quebec in 1995 when voters went to the polls to decide whether the province should declare independence from Canada. Tim Marshall, the author of The Power of Geography and presenter of the World Service podcast, The Compass, explores other referendums which have taken place in recent history. Plus the creation of children's TV series Teletubbies in 1994. It became a global hit. (Photo: Voters gather in the streets of Barcelona.

Das Umwelt- und Energiedepartement UVEK ist in der Hand der SVP. Während die SVP auf eine andere Energiepolitik hofft, fürchten sich die Grünen vor einem Rückschritt in der Klimapolitik. Aline Trede, Fraktionspräsidentin der Grünen und SVP-Nationalrat Christian Imark sind zu Gast im Tagesgespräch. Albert Rösti von der SVP übernimmt das Umwelt- Verkehrs, Energie- und Kommunikationsdepartement. Die Reaktionen lassen an Deutlichkeit nichts zu wünschen übrig: «Der Ölbaron schnappt sich das UVEK» titeln die Grünen, «den linksgrünen Blindflug stoppen», schreibt die SVP. Die SVP wünscht sich eine andere Umwelt- und Energiepolitik, die Grünen fürchten sich vor Rückschritten in der Klimapolitik und in der Energiewende. Politisch stehen wichtige Geschäfte an: Zum Beispiel das sogenannte Klimaschutzgesetz, der indirekte Gegenvorschlag zur Gletscherinitiative, welches die SVP mit einem Referendum bekämpft. Oder das CO2-Gesetz, das in einer Neuauflage vorliegt. Im Tagesgespräch treffen sich Aline Trede, Nationalrätin und Fraktionspräsidentin der Grünen, und SVP-Nationalrat Christian Imark, Vizepräsident der Kommission für Umwelt, Raumplanung und Energie UREK. Wo liegen ihre Differenzen, wo die Gemeinsamkeiten für eine Klima- und Energiepolitik? Welche Erwartungen haben sie an die neue Führung im UVEK und wie begründet sind ihre Hoffnungen und Ängste? Antworten geben Aline Trede und Christian Imark im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.

The first major election since a wave of green and teal changed the federal map is set for this Saturday. The Victorian election is about a lot of things, including being a referendum on Dan Andrews and his premiership. But the election could also tell us more about how the electoral forces in Australia are shifting, and how alternatives to the major parties are rising. Today, election analyst and host of The Tally Room podcast Ben Raue on tomorrow's election, the fate of Dan Andrews and the redrawing of the electoral map.

Eine Frau soll die Nachfolgerin von Bundesrätin Sommaruga werden. Wer schafft es auf das Bundesrats-Ticket der SP-Fraktion? Ausserdem: Die umstrittenen Spenden für die Schweizer Garde in Rom. Und: Transfrau im Männergefängnis. Männer ausgeschlossen: Die SP sucht ihre neue Bundesrätin Die «Rundschau» ist mittendrin im Rennen um den Bundesratssitz von Simonetta Sommaruga: Eine Frau soll es sein, das ist mittlerweile klar. Doch die Ambitionen von Ständerat Daniel Jositsch lösten eine hitzige Debatte über Gleichstellung aus. Auch die anderen Kandidatinnen mussten sich Fragen zu Alter und Familiensituation gefallen lassen. Wer schafft es schliesslich auf das Ticket? Denn die neue Bundesrätin ist wichtig für die Partei – auch im Hinblick auf die kommenden Wahlen. An der «Rundschau»-Theke stellt sich SP-Co-Präsidentin Mattea Meyer den Fragen von Franziska Ramser. Millionen für die Papst-Garde: Widerstand gegen die Spendengelder Schimmel, bröckelige Mauern und kaum Platz: Die Schweizer Garde in Rom braucht eine neue Kaserne. Kostenpunkt: rund 50 Millionen Franken. Doch der Vatikan zahlt nur wenig, der grosse Teil des Geldes soll aus der Schweiz kommen. Umstritten sind insbesondere die Beiträge aus öffentlichen Geldern: In vielen Kantonen wurden die Spenden bereits gesprochen – doch nach einem deutlich abgelehnten Referendum in Luzern regt sich nun im Wallis Widerstand. Transfrau im Männergefängnis: Herausforderung für den Strafvollzug Soll eine Transfrau in ein Männer- oder in ein Frauengefängnis? Transmenschen in Haft stellen den Justizvollzug vor eine neue Herausforderung. Denn diese Personen sind im Gefängnis besonders gefährdet: Es drohen Diskriminierung und Gewalt. Viele Anstalten sind im Umgang mit dieser Minderheit noch überfordert. Ein aktueller Fall dokumentiert das Ringen um Lösungen und zeigt, wie das Gefängnispersonal im Umgang mit Transmenschen geschult wird.
During the midterms, Oregon voters passed Measure 114 which restricts magazine capacity for firearms and requires purchasers to obtain a permit which includes a background check and safety training. Cass Crifasi, co-director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions, talks with Lindsay Smith Rogers about why this measure is a lifesaving win not only for gun violence solutions and public health, but also for evidence-based advocacy. They also discuss where the measure falls in the context of the Supreme Court's Bruen Decision and what Crifasi hopes to see happen next.

Happy Halloween! Sam and Emma host Daniel Nichanian, editor-in-chief of Bolts Magazine to discuss all of the biggest ballot measures that will be decided in next Tuesday's midterm elections. Then, they are joined in the studio (!) by Christian Smalls, the President of the Amazon Labor Union (ALU), to discuss the recent developments with the organizing efforts at Amazon. First, Emma and Sam run through updates on Lula's win in the Brazilian Presidential Election, the Supreme Court's attack on affirmative action, Florida's trans bans, and Paul Pelosi's attacker, before diving deeper into Lula's victory, reminiscing on Michael Brooks, and discussing Joe Biden's immediate recognition of the Brazilian election results. Daniel Nichanian then joins as he dives right into parsing through the state of the midterms issue by issue – first exploring the lingering impact of the Dobbs decision, including the impact of having either abortion bans or constitutional referendums on the state-wide ballot, which states' races have successfully centered the issue of abortion, and the difference between legislation and constitutional enshrinement. Next, they walk through the role of voting rights and ballot initiatives in the leadup to the midterms, discussing the measures at hand in Arizona and Arkansas to effectively clamp down on grassroots initiatives, and greater anti-democratic influence in big tech. They wrap up the interview by diving into drug policy and the right's recent shift to crime, from the recall of Chiesa Boudin (and current attempt against Larry Krasner) to elections in New York and Oakland, and exploring the role of labor rights in Seattle's election. Christian Smalls then joins as he, Emma, and Sam walk through the various fights that the ALU has been involved in, and what was learned from the different experiences, before diving deeper into Amazon's union-busting tactics, why their immense capital allows them to avoid any immediate repercussions, and the importance of community and building a network of solidarity in union organizing. Wrapping up, Smalls explores his personal relationship with Amazon and his coworkers, and how he and the Amazon Labor Union continue to fight despite their David and Goliath-esque battle. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Obama's recent campaigning in Wisconsin, including his focus on Social Security (something he didn't care so dearly for during his tenure as President), Doug Mastriano outsourcing his antisemitism to his wife, and the greater wave of genuinely vitriolic antisemitism in the US. They also admire an incredible speech to a Tennessee school on the importance of the trans and queer community and tackle the role of political violence in US discourse heading into the midterms, plus, your IMs!

Bill is a trusted friend and source for me who I met after he listened and became a regular and highly respected caller of my siriusxm radio show. Bill is a voracious reader and listeners love to hear his take. I think his analysis is as sharp as anyone you will hear on radio or TV and he has well placed friends across the federal government who are always talking to him. As far as I can tell he is not in the CIA. Follow him on twitter and park at his garages. Karla Hernandez A first-generation American who dedicated her life to service, becoming a Miami-Dade Teacher of the Year and a fierce advocate for children and teachers. Born and raised in Hialeah to immigrants from Honduras, Karla Hernández is a first-generation American and the first person in her family to graduate from college. Growing up, Karla learned the values of hard work and opportunity from her dad, who picked tomatoes in the Everglades as a farmworker, before becoming a carpenter. Since 2016 Karla has served as the President of the United Teachers of Dade, the largest teachers' union in the southeastern United States. Prior to becoming president, Karla served as UTD's Secretary-Treasurer from 2013-2016. Before that, Karla worked as a classroom teacher for over 10 years teaching special needs children, and in 2010 she was selected as Teacher of the Year at Hialeah Middle School. In 2018, Hernandez led the charge to mobilize teachers and the Miami-Dade community, helping to pass Referendum #362, an initiative put forth by the United Teachers of Dade to give public school teachers a salary raise and improve security in schools — winning more than 70 percent of the vote. In July 2019, Hernández was recognized by Miami Today as part of its Achiever Series for her work in advancing public education throughout the Miami-Dade community. Hernandez served on the Ruth's List Executive Board, where she worked to elect pro-choice women across Florida. She currently serves on the Florida Education Association (FEA) Governance Board, the FEA Cabinet, the State AFL-CIO Executive Board, The Children's Trust Executive Board, The Education Fund Executive Board, the board of United Way Miami, and is the Chairperson of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Women's Rights Committee and Vice President of AFT. She often speaks to national groups about the challenges public education teachers face and is an ardent advocate for immigration reform and the protection of children's rights. Karla Hernández holds a bachelor's degree from Florida International University in Emotionally Handicapped Education and a master's degree in Business Management from St. Thomas University. She is happily married and the mother of two. Hernández grew up in the church and she has volunteered her time for humanitarian efforts overseas.

If you don't understand ranked choice voting, you're not alone. Charlie spends this episode explaining to listeners the scam that's being pulled on voters, not just in Alaska, but nationwide, as the midterms are dotted with statewide level propositions instituting this anti-democratic voting scheme designed to destroy MAGA candidates. Charlie does his best to explain the system, and how we can get rid of it for future elections. Then he goes through a list of the most critical propositions that are on the ballot in key states that no one is talking about.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
