As Rachel Reeves’ budget approaches, Westminster is braced for tax hikes. The political manoeuvring necessary may just be one of the greatest political challenges of her career. So on this week’s episode of Westminster Insider, Sascha speaks to those who have been there, and compiles some golden rules on how to raise taxes – and get away with it. Social Market Foundation Director and former Gordon Brown advisor Theo Bertram walks Sascha through Brown’s 2002 decision to raise National Insurance, and how he kept voters onside while he did it. And Rishi Sunak’s former advisor James Nation explains why Sunak’s…
Israel plans to seize large parts of a major historical site in the West Bank, Sebastia, according to a government document seen by the Associated Press. Anti-settlement watchdog group Peace Now said that as the site is roughly 450 acres, the move marks the largest seizure of archeologically important land. “The plan would seize nearly 1,800 dunams belonging to the Palestinian villages of Burqa and Sebastia, including thousands of olive trees,” the organisation wrote in a statement, adding that “the land is privately owned and registered in the land registry by Palestinian owners”. The document gives Palestinians 14 days to…
Skills are shifting as jobs evolve. While new requirements are emerging, others are gradually disappearing. The impact of AI on the workplace remains a hotly debated topic, but clear trends are beginning to take shape. As this technology automates more processes, demand for certain roles — especially at the entry level — is already declining. But as a worker, how can you protect yourself? The World Economic Forum’s (WEF) ‘Future of Jobs Report 2025’ shows which skills employers say they need most in their workforces. The report draws on input from more than 1,000 major global employers, together representing over…
Ein Spaziergang durch Magdeburg und ein politisches Gespräch über ein Land im Wandel. Gordon Repinski trifft Ulrich Siegmund, AfD-Fraktionschef in Sachsen-Anhalt und Spitzenkandidat für die Landtagswahl dort im nächsten Jahr. Er spricht mit ihm über seine Ambitionen als möglicher Ministerpräsident, seine Haltung zur Demokratie und den Umgang mit der deutschen Geschichte. Siegmund erklärt, warum er keine Koalition sucht, sondern auf eine Alleinregierung setzt, und warum er sich als Politiker für alle „rechtschaffenden Bürger“ versteht. Das Gespräch führt weit über Sachsen-Anhalt hinaus: Migration, Sicherheit, Sprache und Erinnerungskultur. Es geht um den Begriff Remigration, um die Verantwortung der Politik im Umgang mit…
The ruling risks turning that feud into a constitutional crisis, with the judiciary seemingly taking aim at members of the executive running Europe’s fourth-largest economy. The clash has taken a toll on Sánchez, who has long claimed to be the target of “lawfare,” accusing conservative judges of pursuing baseless cases against his allies and family. Last year the prime minister briefly considered stepping down after his wife was named as the target of a judicial investigation that is ongoing, but widely considered to be baseless. His brother, meanwhile, is due to face trial next year on influence-peddling charges linked to a…
Answers on a postcard to the supermarket in the European Parliament and/or the International Criminal Court. It’s been a challenging week for Italian foodstuffs. Italy’s agriculture minister, Francesco Lollobrigida, was livid when he saw a jar of carbonara sauce on the shelves of the Delhaize store inside the Parliament in Brussels that contained pancetta rather than guanciale — the cheek of it! (Guanciale is pork cheek, get it? No? Oh.) Lollobrigida said such products represent the “worst of ‘Italian-sounding’” foodstuffs and called for an “immediate investigation.” Thank goodness there isn’t a war (or several) going on. That said, passing off…
Der G20-Gipfel in Johannesburg startet – doch die großen Player fehlen. Donald Trump boykottiert komplett, Xi Jinping und Wladimir Putin schicken nur Vertreter. Das Format, einst geschaffen für globale Krisen, gerät damit ins Wanken. Hans von der Burchard ein, warum die Erwartungen drastisch gesunken sind, welche Rolle Friedrich Merz spielt und wie Europa versucht, den Multilateralismus zu retten. Auf der Agenda: Ukraine, Klimapolitik, Migration, der Kampf um seltene Erden – und die Frage, ob am Ende überhaupt ein gemeinsames Abschlussstatement möglich ist. Gordon Repinski berichtet zudem, wie Merz seine heikle Aussage über Brasilien einholt und welche innenpolitischen Themen – allen…
But according to some lawmakers, that goal is a fair way off. “Brussels would like to give the impression of leadership, but in reality the Palestine donor group is yet another symbolic meeting,” Anders Vistisen, chief whip of the far-right Patriots group, told POLITICO. “The EU has poured billions into Palestinian institutions, projects and so-called reform processes for decades — and it has neither delivered stability nor accountability.” It’s “the United States — not the European Union — that is defining the political and security framework in Gaza,” he added. “As long as Brussels acts as a cash machine without…
