Elon Musk legitimised a convicted racist & now says civil war in UK is "inevitable".
Urgent need for a deep examination of the role of social media in the proliferation of political extremism & misinformation in EU & UK!

If you tell people migration is why they lack opportunity, this is the result.
Bad governance, inequality & unregulated social media have a lot to answer for.
Silence from Farage & the Tory hard right who blew the dogwhistle for years.

RT by @GuyVerhofstadt: Some are angry about the "anti-Christian depiction of the last supper" at the Olympic Opening ceremony. (@elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump among others)
A Dutch art historian explains it's not the last supper but a Dutch painting of the Olympic gods.
And I explain what I loved.

Ukraine is right: if Putin and Orbán can play energy games against the Ukrainian and European interest, so can they….
But the real question is: when will the EU finally get its act together on sanctions, energy… and Hungary?!

This is the biggest contest yet between two world views:
Destructive v. constructive politics, division v. national unity, dictatorship v. a democratic republic…
Harris can win this if she convinces voters to keep the American Dream alive !

Europe turns to symbolism as threat of war grows…
Because men and money are not the main problem… fragmentation is !
As long as EU armies don’t fundamentally integrate, separate armies will always fail in the face of Russia !

Unfortunately this is not a European Defense Union…
A Defense Union as was worked out in 1954 by the founding fathers, starts with an army based on divisions that has common military equipment at its disposal…

10 years ago MH17 was shot down, killing 298 people…
Signs of Russia’s destabilisation efforts were all over the place in 2014… yet Europe failed to act.
10 years on, we are still gravely underestimating Putin’s brutality !

As democracy in America unravels Europe needs to prepare for the return of Trump.
We need to count only on ourselves in defence, foreign affairs & hardening global economy. We need wholesale EU-reform to survive… & EU leaders need to step up urgently !
