Carsten Thoma, Präsident des Softwareunternehmens Celonis, hält die Investitionsinitiative Made for Germany für mehr als eine Show. Den Entwicklungsstandort München hat sie aus seiner Sicht gestärkt: „Ich glaube nicht, dass wir so stabil geblieben wären am Anfang und es auch nicht so gesteigert hätten im letzten Jahr, wenn es die Initiative nicht gegeben hätte.“ [05:52]Reiner Holznagel, Präsident des Bundes der Steuerzahler, sieht die öffentliche Hand im Umgang mit Steuergeld keinen Schritt weiter. Im neuen Schwarzbuch stehen beispielsweise fünf Bäume für hunderttausend Euro und eine Toilette, die an sechs Tagen im Jahr gebraucht wird. Schuld ist aus seiner Sicht die Mischfinanzierung: „Wir haben sehr viel Geld in den staatlichen Kanälen, aber keiner überwacht, was damit tatsächlich am Ende wirklich gemacht wird.“ [09:11]Das Kabinett hat die Pflegereform beschlossen und Gesundheitsminister Carsten Linnemann (CDU) damit seinen ersten Erfolg verschafft. Kinderlose zahlen künftig einen höheren Zuschlag, Spitzenverdiener weniger, als die SPD es wollte. Die große Reform will Linnemann erst nach Ostern durchs Parlament bringen – wer künftig überhaupt Leistungen bekommt, ist bis dahin offen. [01:08]Neun von zehn Haushalten haben in diesem Jahr Fleisch oder Geflügel gegessen, meldet die Deutsche Presse-Agentur zum Welttag der Vegetarier. Der Markt für Ersatzprodukte wächst trotzdem – ein gutes Drittel der Haushalte hat zugegriffen, so viele wie seit Jahren nicht.

Dan and Carl discuss why Reform UK is in an unrecoverable position. Promoted by Lotus Eater Media Limited, PO Box 4354, Swindon, SN3 9FX, on behalf of Restore Britain, Suite 4, Millennium House, Gapton Hall Road, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, NR31 0NL.

In 2021, California voters were asked whether or not to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom from office. But there was also a second question on the ballot: Who should replace the governor if he was recalled? The recall ultimately failed. But if it had succeeded, Republican talk show host Larry Elder, who won roughly 48% of the vote in that second question, would have become governor. Proposition 5 would change this process by eliminating the second question from recall ballots for statewide office.

Permitting reform has become one of the most consequential—and controversial—topics in U.S. climate and energy policy. As electricity demand rises due to AI, data centers, electrification, and economic growth, many argue that the country's permitting, transmission, and interconnection processes are too slow to support the clean energy transition. In this special crossover episode jointly produced by the Climate Rising and CleanLaw podcasts, Mike Toffel and Harvard Law School Professor Jody Freeman speak with Nat Keohane, President of the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES). They discuss why permitting reform has emerged as a rare area of bipartisan interest, the challenges of modernizing America's electric grid, and the tradeoffs between accelerating infrastructure development and maintaining environmental safeguards. The conversation examines how permitting, transmission planning, utility incentives, AI-driven electricity demand, and federal-state governance intersect—and why solving these challenges may be essential to both climate progress and American competitiveness.

Rusland intensiveert drone-aanvallen | Europese kramp | Begrotingscrisis Rusland voert de druk op Oekraïne verder op met zwaardere raket- en droneaanvallen op de energie-infrastructuur. Oekraïne slaat ondertussen terug met aanvallen op Russische raffinaderijen en logistieke knooppunten. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk schetsen hoe de inzet van Geran-drones en de aanhoudende beschietingen van steden als Kiev, Kramatorsk en Sloviansk de oorlog voortdurend van karakter doen veranderen. Richting de winter raakt ook de Oekraïense economie steeds verder verzwakt. Stroomuitval, online onderwijs en stilvallende productie brengen Kyiv financieel in het nauw, terwijl Europese steun alleen onvoldoende is om de tekorten op te vangen. Ook binnen Europa lopen de spanningen op. Nederland, Duitsland en andere ‘zuinige’ landen botsen met Frankrijk over de Europese meerjarenbegroting en de financiering van defensie. Tegelijk houdt Nederland zich afzijdig van gezamenlijke wapenleningen zoals SAVE. Boekestijn en De Wijk plaatsen die begrotingsstrijd in de bredere discussie over de strategische autonomie van Europa en verbinden die met de politieke ontwikkelingen rond Marine Le Pen in Frankrijk. In het Verenigd Koninkrijk verschuift ondertussen het debat over Brexit richting een nauwere aansluiting bij Europa, nu ook onder Reform-kiezers meer aandacht ontstaat voor de economische gevolgen van het Britse vertrek uit de EU. In het Midden-Oosten lopen de spanningen tussen de Verenigde Staten en Iran verder op rond de Straat van Hormuz. Sancties zetten de Iraanse economie zwaar onder druk, terwijl via de Hoethis en de Revolutionaire Garde in Jemen een complexe proxy-oorlog wordt uitgevochten. Tegelijk zorgt de binnenlandse druk door inflatie en hoge dieselprijzen ervoor dat Joe Biden maatregelen overweegt die Europa met een nieuwe energiecrisis kunnen confronteren. Ondertussen blijft Washington discreet met Moskou in gesprek over Oekraïne en mogelijke toekomstige samenwerking op energiegebied. Daarmee kunnen de geopolitieke verhoudingen opnieuw verschuiven. [Samenvatting geschreven door AI en gecontroleerd door mens] Over de Podcast Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk gaan onder leiding van Hugo Reitsma op zoek naar de nieuwe wereldorde. Wat betekenen oorlog, machtspolitiek en economische verschuivingen voor Europa en Nederland? In elke aflevering duiken zij in de geopolitieke actualiteit.

As Social Security and Medicare barrel toward insolvency, what can the United States learn from how other countries have restructured their retirement systems—and does Washington have the political will to act? Join Atlas Society CEO Jennifer Grossman for the 321st episode of Objectively Speaking, where she sits down with Romina Boccia to talk about her co-authored book, Reimagining Social Security: Global Lessons for Retirement Policy Changes," which explains what is wrong with Social Security and how major retirement program reforms from Canada, Germany, New Zealand, and Sweden could work in the United States. Romina Boccia is director of budget and entitlement policy at the Cato Institute, where she focuses on federal spending, the budget process, the economic consequences of rising debt, and reforms to Social Security and Medicare.

Bis zuletzt wurde verhandelt, nun hat das Bundeskabinett die Pflegereform verabschiedet: Ein "Stabilisierungspaket für die Pflege". Eine Kommission soll sich außerdem mit einer strukturellen Reform der Pflegeversicherung beschäftigen. Die gesetzliche Pflegeversicherung steckt tief in den roten Zahlen. Laut dem Spitzenverband der gesetzlichen Kranken- und Pflegeversicherung (GKV) könnte ihr ohne weitere Zuschüsse schon ab Oktober die Zahlungsunfähigkeit drohen. Die aktuellen Diskussionen verunsicherten Pflegebedürftige und ihre Angehörigen, sagte Daria Kägler aus Bad Oldesloe auf NDR Info. Sie ist Pflegeberaterin und pflegende Mutter. Es gehe die Angst vor Kürzungen um. Der Mediziner und Gesundheitsexperte Clemens Becker von der Universität Heidelberg fordert grundlegendere Reformen im System. In Norwegen, Kanada und Frankreich gebe es gute Ansätze, die man ins deutsche System übernehmen könne. Er kritisierte die Pflegereform 2017: Viel mehr Menschen würden Leistungen beziehen, die Versorgungsqualität habe sich dadurch nicht verbessert. Aber die Kosten seien explodiert. Würde der Status quo fortgeschrieben, kämen wir "ab 2035 bis 2050 in eine Situation, die aus gesellschaftlicher Perspektive untragbar ist", sagte er auf NDR Info.weitere Informationen: Bundeskabinett einigt sich auf Pflegereformhttps://www.tagesschau.de/eilmeldung/pflegereform-kabinett-100.htmlReformbedarf: Was bei der Pflegeversicherung im Argen liegthttps://www.ndr.de/audio-3507206.htmlMediziner Becker zur Pflege: System grundsätzlich überdenkenhttps://www.ndr.de/audio-3507360.htmlPflegeberaterin: Pflegereform ist nur ein Kürzungspakethttps://www.ndr.de/audio-3507414.htmlAlle Folgen von “NDR Info Thema” auch in ARD-Sounds https://www.ardsounds.de/sendung/urn:ard:show:193cce6e1dd33420/

In our latest Inside Insurance – Navigating Solvency II Reform video, Eoin King, Órlaith Lehane and Ogochukwu Nkado discuss one of the key new Pillar 2 requirements being introduced under the Solvency II Review – Liquidity Risk Management Plans (LRMPs). The session explores why liquidity has become an increasing regulatory focus, what insurers will be required to do from January 2027, and some of the practical implementation challenges firms are likely to face, including cash-flow projections, liquidity stress testing, governance, liquidity indicators and management actions. While many insurers may already have some of the building blocks in place through existing ORSA and Recovery Plan processes, LRMPs bring these elements together into a more structured and evidence-based framework. With implementation approaching, now is a good time for insurers to assess readiness and identify any gaps in their current liquidity risk management capabilities.

In Week 5 of the Reform series, Samuel Goulet continues through Nehemiah 5 and 6, showing how building with God often reveals deeper dysfunction that must be addressed with courage, wisdom, and Christlike leadership. Using Nehemiah's response to injustice, financial oppression, and fear, this message challenges believers to respond instead of react, confront broken systems with truth and love, and discover the specific work God has called them to build in their families, churches, workplaces, and city.

Jemma and Marina hit Labour conference with Andy Burnham's speech: social care, "Your First Home" and the triple lock. Both have opinions and neither can quite agree on how many pensioners will turn up with pitchforks. Plus Shabana Mahmood reads the room, and Jemma and Marina ask whether this is actual hope or just adrenaline and conference biscuits.Then to Reform, where a council has decided the best way to help women and girls is to close all ten of its nurseries, leaving 402 children and 116 staff in the lurch. Then football. One hotel-room summit, 160+ athlete signatures, one player who wouldn't play and a 3-0 win in black armbands. Jemma and Marina on the most dramatic day in Irish football, and why the Irish lead on Palestine.Plus: Ash Sarkar's Question Time moment and why Marina has notes, the underrated tweets (featuring the Grand Designs caravan), and Marina's David Dickinson tan.Join The Trawl's Facebook BRAND NEW Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61590931382660Get your tickets for The Trawl Live from https://thetrawl.tix.to/ticketsThank you for sharing and please do follow us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastIf you've even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you'll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma & Marina over on Patreon, including:• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on• Early access to The Trawl Meets…• Glorious ad-free episodesPlus, there's a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.And it's your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.

Do you agree with Burnham's plans to scrap the triple lock to fund social care reform?Joining Iain Dale on Cross Question - live from the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool - are Treasury Minister James Murray, the Equity union's General Secretary Paul W. Fleming, plus the Liverpool Echo's Political Editor Liam Thorp.

It's the new prime minister's big day in Liverpool – but will he explain what Labour conference slogan “hope again” actually means?After a series of major speeches with little substance so far from his cabinet colleagues, Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy wonder whether Andy Burnham is saving all the juicy details for himself. Could there be some policy surprises – with the pensions triple lock seemingly on the table?And with Reform inching back ahead in the latest polling, the duo ask who Labour views as its main opponent heading into the next election: Reform or the Conservatives?Plus, Sam has a scoop on the PM's latest plans to bring back drinking at the footie.Remember, Politics at Sam and Anne's will be back later with a special de-brief edition on the Burnham speech.

A rec program can have high standards and an elite one can have low ones. I explain how standards can fall short at the regional, national, or international level, why reform gets pushback, and why any fix, like pro-rel, has to consider supply, demand, and culture.

Auf der Suche nach Einsparungspotenzial ließe sich durch das Zusammenlegen von Gemeinden nicht nur Geld sparen, sondern auf Expertise bündeln, eine neue Folge aus der Reihe „Neustart für Österreich“. Ein Podcast von Pragmaticus.Das Thema: Der Staat ist schwerfällig, oft kommt er mit den gesellschaftlichen Veränderungen nicht mit. Die Demographie ist im Wandel, in Familien arbeiten beide Elternteile, Kinder müssen versorgt werden. Aus Engpässen werden oft Notlösungen gebaut, Notlösungen werden zu Dauereinrichtungen und Gemeinden müssen mit Provisorien umgehen, um auf die Bedürfnisse der Menschen reagieren zu können. Auf diese Weise ist ein unüberschaubares Flickwerk an Bestimmungen entstanden.Intransparenz ist das Stichwort, sagt der ehemalige Bürgermeister von Lustenau, der auch in der Zusammenlegung von Gemeinden einen Weg für Einsparungen sieht. Denn auf diese Weise würde nicht nur gespart werden, es ließen sich auch Expertisen bündeln. In Zeiten von komplexen legistischen Bestimmungen und Vorgaben wäre das sogar eine qualitative Verbesserung für all jene, die damit konfrontiert sind, Abläufe ließen sich effizienter gestalten. Unser Gast in dieser Folge: Kurt Fischer, geboren 1963 in Lustenau, war von 2010 bis 2025 Bürgermeister von Lustenau für die ÖVP. Er hat eine Karriere mit vielen unterschiedlichen Stationen hinter sich. Aufgewachsen in Lustenau, ging er in Dornbirn zur Schule und studierte danach Anglistik und Philosophie in Innsbruck. Von 1986 bis 2000 arbeitete er als Gymnasiallehrer, übernahm dann den väterlichen Betrieb und wurde Unternehmer im Digitaldruckbereich. 2010 stieg er aus und widmete sich seiner politischen Karriere. Kurt Fischer ist seit 2000 Gemeinderat in Lustenau für die ÖVP, war ab 2004 als Landtagsabgeordneter in vielen unterschiedlichen Ausschüssen tätig und war von 2008 bis 2014 Stv.-Klubobmann der ÖVP-Landtagsfraktion.  Dies ist ein Podcast von Der Pragmaticus.

Rick Fittin grew up in New Jersey, joined the Army, and went on to spend more than 25 years in law enforcement — working his way from patrol officer to K9 officer and eventually police chief. Along the way, he experienced the wild, funny, and unpredictable side of policing that most people never get to hear directly from the officers who lived it. After more than two decades on the job, Rick walked away from law enforcement and started an entirely new chapter of his life. _____________________________________________  #police #cops #TrueCrime #crimestories #k9 _____________________________________________ Thank you to HIMS & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Hims: Ready to reach your goals?

Speaking to Pippa Crerar and Kiran Stacey at the Labour party conference in Liverpool, Miatta Fahnbulleh, the energy secretary, said a mark of her success or failure would be whether she could get bills down and said she would do so. She also challenged Reform UK and the Tories on their climate inaction, saying they would eventually ‘bow' because they were on the ‘wrong side of history'.

George takes us behind the scenes and back to 2007 to a moment that could have ended his and David Cameron's careers, while Ed recounts the moment that changed British political history.Labour's party Chair, Bridget Phillipson, asks a more upbeat conference themed question: Which are Ed and George's favourite speeches? This takes them from Thatcher's triumphant defence of her policy in 1980, to Tony Blair in the wake of 9/11. Elsewhere they discuss measures to combat inflation and the far-right in France working with Reform. Plus ex-MP Robert Buckland asks if a decisive win for Labour, in the Holborn and St. Pancras by-election, could prompt Andy Burnham to call an early election.

Shows how apocalypticism helped drive anti-slavery abolitionism and inspire progressive social reform in nineteenth-century America In March 1844, Melissa Botsford of Meriden, Connecticut, defiantly left her local Methodist church because it supported slavery and other “sins” that permeated America. Botsford was among one hundred thousand other abolitionists who abandoned their evangelical churches throughout the decade. These protesters came out with a stern apocalyptic warning: God would soon judge America—and its churches—for the sins of slavery and race prejudice. It has long been assumed that apocalypticism is antithetical to social reform. Yet in Apocalyptic Abolitionism: How Millennialists Helped Abolish Slavery and Reform America (NYU Press, 2026), Kevin M. Burton uncovers the untold story of how apocalypticism shaped the abolitionist cause and helped destroy slavery in the United States. Contrary to popular opinion, the revival fires of the Second Great Awakening did not drive most evangelicals to progressive social reforms like abolitionism. Neither were the denominational schisms during that period a fight between northern abolitionists and southern slaveholders. Rather, before the Methodist and Baptist denominations split along sectional lines, most abolitionists, particularly members of the Adventist movement, had already left their churches in what was likely the largest mass exodus from mainstream evangelicalism in American history, precisely because most evangelicals opposed radical social reform movements. This volume makes the case that evangelicals receive undeserved credit for antislavery, and that it was apocalyptic abolitionists who led the way. Drawing from rare and overlooked sources to create a database of biographies of nearly 2000 people to track their religious affiliations and activism over time, Burton offers invaluable data to develop a robust framework for understanding apocalypticism, evangelicalism, and social reform politics of the nineteenth century. Kevin M. Burton is Assistant Professor of Church History, Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, Andrews University, where he also directs the Center for Adventist Research. to American religious history." ~John Corrigan, author of The Feeling of Forgetting: Christianity, Race, and Violence in America Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It's Labour's first UK conference since Andy Burnham became its leader and prime minister. It's also the first since its devastating losses in May's elections. Welsh Secretary Stephen Kinnock joins us from Liverpool. Members of the Orange Order were given last-minute permission by the high court to pass through a nationalist area of Portadown in County Armagh for the first time in nearly 30 years. Dr Thomas Leahy is a senior lecturer in British and Irish politics at Cardiff University and explains the significance of the decision. After a terrible week and Dan Thomas' resignation as their leader, Reform have appointed Helen Jenner to take his place. She tells us what her leadership will look like and Nick Tyrone, author of new book The Rise of Reform will discuss how Reform became the party it is. Lithuania has made evacuation plans in the event of a Russian attack. Estonia's foreign affairs committee chair, Marko Mihkelsen, outlines how the Baltic states are preparing for the possibility of war. And the Victorian Society has held its first AGM in Llandudno in twenty years. Dr Kathryn Ferry is a seaside resort historian, and we'll hear from her how Llandudno developed from a hamlet surrounded by marshland into a modern tourist attraction for the Victorians.Continuing with our series meeting politicians, this week we return to the Senedd to meet one of Plaid Cymru's three MSs in the Afan Ogwr Rhondda constituency, Elyn Stephens.

As kids head back to school, The Other Side of Midnight takes a hard look at how America's schools are educating children—and whether the system has kept up with the modern world.The discussion tackles smartphones in schools, arguing that instead of banning technology, educators should consider using the devices as part of the curriculum.The conversation also questions the traditional seven-hour school day, the history behind the current school schedule, and whether younger children would benefit from going home for lunch.Most importantly, the episode examines what parents are being told about their children's education.Are kids actually learning to read and write—or are schools using definitions that obscure what students can really do?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-other-side-of-midnight-with-walter-sterling--7177415/support.

For this week's Edition, William Moore is joined by the Spectator's deputy editor Freddy Gray, commissioning editor Lara Brown and deputy political editor James Heale.This week: will Andy Burnham call an early general election? Tim Shipman's cover asks whether the Prime Minister might go to the polls sooner than 2029, as Labour faces a worsening fiscal situation and an increasingly difficult choice over tax and spending. With the government's budget looming, does Burnham need a fresh mandate – or is an election simply too risky? And with Reform and the Conservatives competing for voters on the right, could an early contest catch his opponents off guard?Also: the coming AI backlash. James writes about the Prime Minister's cautious approach to artificial intelligence and asks whether the government can afford to hedge its bets as the technology transforms the economy. With Britain facing high energy costs and limited computing capacity, can the UK really compete in the AI race?Across the Atlantic, Freddy looks at Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan whose campaign has attracted attention for its combination of progressive politics, online influence and an emphasis on masculinity and fitness. Could candidates like El-Sayed tell us something about where the American left is heading? And as politicians increasingly turn themselves into social-media personalities, is this more important than traditional party structures?Plus: would you make a good professional mourners? We explore the strange world of people paid to attend funerals.Produced by Patrick Gibbons & Abigail Brierley. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The bipartisan 2016 Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act (Lautenberg) Amendments enacted extensive changes to the 1976 Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) that many hoped would set the law on a new course, address its widely recognized challenges, and accelerate U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) actions to address public health threats. Since then, four administrations have put their mark on implementation of the amended law. The past ten years have seemed like a roller coaster of competing legal interpretations of some of the Lautenberg Amendments' most significant provisions, scientific debate and analyses, rulemakings, delays in meeting TSCA deadlines, and major milestones. To celebrate Lautenberg's ten-year anniversary, the Environmental Law Institute, the George Washington Milken Institute School of Public Health, and B&C convened an all-day conference: TSCA Reform -- Ten Years Later. The podcast you are about to hear is the panel discussion on ten years of Lautenberg: where are we? Unsurprisingly, views vary widely on whether we are on the right track in achieving Congress's goals, whether amending TSCA was successful, whether EPA's efforts over the past decade are achieving the law's public health goals, and whether, as we look back ten years, we need to reimagine our core approach to chemical regulation or stay the course. This discussion includes diverse stakeholders steeped in TSCA debating these questions. ALL MATERIALS IN THIS PODCAST ARE PROVIDED SOLELY FOR INFORMATIONAL  AND ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES.

In this Week In Review episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss the difference between Islam and Islamism, revisit lessons from the 9/11 era, and debate the political influence of controversial figures and movements inside Democratic politics. They also shift to a major Senate victory on college sports reform, outlining a bipartisan bill that passed with overwhelming support and explaining how it would reshape NIL, transfer rules, eligibility standards, and protections for student-athletes. Twenty-five years after 9/11, a new debate has emerged over how political leaders, media figures, and the public discuss Islam, Islamism, and national security. Senator Ted Cruz argues that critics are intentionally blurring the distinction between a religion practiced by millions and a political ideology he describes as a threat to democratic institutions. Cruz responds to criticism of remarks he delivered at the Republican Midterm Convention, where he warned about what he calls a growing alliance between far-left activists and Islamist political movements. He also reacts to a CNN panel discussion that challenged his characterization of Islamism and examines why the issue continues to generate intense political controversy. Topics Covered: Cruz’s response to criticism of his Republican Midterm Convention speech The distinction between Islam, Islamism, and political movements rooted in Sharia governance The legacy of 9/11 and ongoing debates about terrorism and extremism Allegations involving Abdul El-Sayed, religious leaders, and political allies Senate passage of a bipartisan college sports reform bill NIL rules, transfer portal reforms, athlete eligibility standards, and protections for women’s and Olympic sports Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
