Die Preise an den Zapfsäulen kennen nur eine Richtung: nach oben. Weil die tägliche Preisobergrenze allein kaum Entlastung verspricht, diskutiert die Koalition nun über eine Spritpreisbremse. Eine neue Taskforce aus Kartellamt, Mineralölkonzernen und Politik berät heute auch dazu. Rasmus Buchsteiner analysiert, warum Schwarz-Rot trotz ökonomischer Skepsis unter politischem Druck steht und wieso die Pläne in der Regierung auf weniger Gegenliebe stoßen als im Parlament und in den Ländern. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview fordert Thüringens Ministerpräsident Mario Voigt ein Aussetzen der CO2-Bepreisung. Voigt erklärt, wie er die daraus resultierenden Milliardenlöcher stopfen will und warum Pragmatismus jetzt vor Ideologie gehen muss, um den politischen…
Published on 16/03/2026 – 7:00 GMT+1 Travelling with the little ones does not always give the whole “relaxed holiday vibe” for parents. From struggling in airport queues, carrying all the extra essentials and dealing with the odd tantrum, even a short one- or two-day trip away can take the stress levels up a notch. Now that the Easter and summer holidays are on the horizon, many parents will be searching for the ideal place where they can take their kids away for a family break. With this in mind, travel booking platform LateRooms has created a new “Family Breaks Index”,…
The criticism comes as von der Leyen faces a growing rebellion from Spanish socialists from Sánchez’s party, who form an important part of her own dominant coalition in the European Parliament. Senior lawmakers last week condemned comments from the Commission president in which she declared “Europe can no longer be a custodian for the old-world order, for a world that has gone and will not return.” Representatives for von der Leyen declined to comment. Von der Leyen has measured her criticism of the U.S. and Israel, saying that the Iranian regime deserves to fall but urging diplomatic solutions to the…

In times of change, those who recognize connections and are willing to shape them strategically can transform uncertainty into lasting strength. What makes this example remarkable is that the real innovation did not lie in the tire itself or merely even a clever marketing idea to boost sales. It lay in something more fundamental: connected thinking and ecosystem thinking. The decision to see mobility as a broad space for value creation. It was the courage to break out of silos, to recognize strategic connections, to deepen value chains — and to help define the standards of an emerging market. That…
A spokesperson for the joint administrators at Interpath confirmed: “As the exit of customers left the company facing insolvency, the U.K. business was unable to continue to trade while the statutory notice periods be run.” Dozens of former U.K. staff are now planning to apply for a protective award, the same two former staff members told POLITICO. When a claim is successful against an insolvent firm, employees are able to receive a maximum of £5,752 each from the Insolvency Service. However, Interpath representatives warned in the Feb. 20 meeting that this process could take up to nine months, the same…
The prime example is the northern city of Lille, where the France Unbowed candidate was by one projection in a tie with the incumbent center-left mayor. France Unbowed is also on track to come in first in Roubaix, a populous, working-class city on Lille’s outskirts. The party’s prospects in this contest were very much in question after a controversy surrounding the death of a far-right activist last month. But France Unbowed’s strategy of focusing on young voters and working-class urban populations, often of immigrant descent, is delivering despite repeated controversies, particularly accusations of antisemitism against Mélenchon. “This election confirms that there is…
Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó took the stage to claim that Brussels, Kyiv and Berlin “want to bring Europe to war” and “want the money of Europeans to be given to the Ukrainians.” Near Kossuth Square, Bajcsy-Zsilinszky Boulevard was at a standstill with dozens of buses still disgorging supporters from the countryside, who had been brought in to offset Budapest’s predominantly opposition voters. High school student Mikolt, 16, and her stay-at-home mother Daniela, 42, were arriving from the village of Eger in the northeast of the country. They said they supported Orbán because he is keeping Hungary out of the war…
The People’s Party, which governs in Castilla y León, is projected to remain the largest party in the region with between 30 and 32 lawmakers. The conservatives will fall short of securing a governing majority, however, and are expected to attempt to form a coalition with the far-right Vox. For the first time, the ultranationalist group is projected to have secured over 20 percent of the vote and looks set to jump from 13 lawmakers to controlling between 17 and 19 seats in the parliament. Castilla y León’s regional president, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, in 2022 became the first PP leader…
