Yanis Varoufakis: “Necesitamos encontrar formas de unir al proletariado con los ‘siervos de la nube’ y el precariado”

1 week ago | equaltimes.org | Arthur Neslen

Yanis Varoufakis, economista griego y líder de DiEM25 –la alianza política paneuropea de izquierdas que cofundó en 2016 con el filósofo croata Srećko Horvat con el objetivo de “democratizar Europa”– saltó a la fama como ministro de Finanzas de Grecia durante la crisis de la zona euro de 2015 y desde entonces ha escrito varios libros superventas de economía, el más famoso de los cuales es Comportarse como adultos: Mi batalla con el profundo establishment europeo, que fue adaptado al cine por...
Greek economist and political disruptor, Yanis Varoufakis: “Trade unions need to move beyond trying to secure fair wages. Wage will never be fair under technofeudalism”

2 weeks ago | equaltimes.org | Arthur Neslen

Yanis Varoufakis is a Greek economist and the leader of the DiEM25, the left-wing, pan-European political alliance that he co-founded in 2016 with the Croatian philosopher Srećko Horvat with the aim of “democratising Europe”.
Why defunding NGOs would lock in a European 'Greenwash' Deal

1 month ago | euobserver.com | Arthur Neslen

The Strasbourg vote on defunding green NGOs in May will be more than a classic far-right free speech chiller. It certainly leans into the Trump playbook — hijacking public revulsion at the EU’s democratic deficit, and misdirecting it toward the smouldering embers of our checks and balances. But the EPP’s wide-eyed finger-jabbing at €15m of (public) subsidies for NGOs also occludes the annual €1.7bn (private) lobby spend of corporates, which, in another, greener, world would be the real disgrace.
Una mayoría de empresas que asesoran a la UE para reformar la ley Ómnibus sobre sostenibilidad, acusadas de abusos y violaciones en sus cadenas de suministro

1 month ago | equaltimes.org | Arthur Neslen

Casi dos tercios de las 44 empresas invitadas a asesorar a la Comisión Europea sobre las leyes para que las empresas se responsabilicen de las violaciones de derechos humanos y la destrucción del medio ambiente en sus cadenas de suministro han sido acusadas recientemente de esos mismos delitos, revela Equal Times. La semana pasada, la Comisión Europea presentó su tan esperado paquete Ómnibus sobre sostenibilidad.
Most firms advising the EU on its Omnibus sustainability reforms ‘accused of supply chain abuse'

1 month ago | equaltimes.org | Arthur Neslen

Almost two-thirds of the 44 corporations invited to advise the European Commission on laws to hold firms accountable for human rights abuses and environmental destruction along their supply chains have recently been accused of such offences themselves, Equal Times can reveal. Last week, the European Commission unveiled its long-awaited Omnibus package on sustainability.
Big polluters funnel 75% of profits to shareholders, not clean energy

2 months ago | climatechangenews.com | Arthur Neslen

Europe’s top polluting companies have ploughed three-quarters of their $2.1 trillion profits since 2010 into shareholder payouts rather than clean energy investments, according to Friends of the Earth. Between 2010 and 2023, Shell paid out 97% of its profits to investors, and Total Energies dished out 86%, the green campaign group found in a study covering more than 800 energy-intensive companies.

Rightwing MEPs threaten huge funding freeze for environmental NGOs

2 months ago | theguardian.com | Arthur Neslen

Several environmental NGOs could be effectively shut down in Europe, if a defunding push by rightwing MEPs is successful, campaigners say. At the same time that centre and far right MEPs are revving up strategies to defang, deregulate or decapitate the European Green Deal, an EU plan to cut emissions to net zero by 2050, a proposed funding freeze in the European Parliament would weaken green groups. Bolstered by electoral gains, conservative populists appear to scent blood.
Poland Is Warned: Welcoming Netanyahu to Auschwitz Memorial Would Be a “Grave Mistake”

Jan 23, 2025 | theintercept.com | Arthur Neslen

Allowing Israel’s indicted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu safe passage to a Holocaust memorial service in Poland next Tuesday would “make a mockery” of Europe’s commitment to the International Criminal Court, according to Josep Borrell, the European Union’s foreign affairs chief until last month.
Guess who isn't invited to Europe's Holocaust memorials?

Jan 20, 2025 | euobserver.com | Arthur Neslen

Does the European Commission think that one has to be a Zionist to remember the Holocaust? Apparently so. All of the 11 Jewish groups invited to Tuesday's (21 January) Holocaust remembrance conference in Brussels have lent political support to Israel and many work in close alliance with the Israeli mission to the EU, according to campaigners.
