Jeremy Hunt defends skilled migration plans | News | The Times (Me: Tory MPs too racist for country’s good)

Jeremy Hunt is facing a backlash from Tory MPs after he defended the need for skilled migration to help to boost the economy.

The chancellor said it was “very important” for Britain to take in hundreds of thousands of foreign workers every year and the government was figuring out a longer-term solution to bring down migration “in a way that doesn’t harm the economy”.

Erfolg: Deutschland steigt aus dem Anti-Klima-Abkommen aus!

Stella, oh, Stella

Letzten Freitag wurde bekannt, worauf wir seit Jahren hinarbeiten: Deutschland wird aus dem Klimakiller-Vertrag ECT (Energiecharta-Vertrag) aussteigen! Diese Entscheidung ist ein Meilenstein für den Klimaschutz, einer der größten Bewegungserfolge der letzten Jahre und ein wichtiger Sieg über das veraltete System der privaten Schiedsgerichte.

Nach Jahren des Protests und über 15 gescheiterten Modernisierungsversuchen des fossilen Relikts beschloss die Bundesregierung, sich der Austrittswelle anzuschließen und bereits in 14 Tagen den Vertrag zu kündigen. In den vergangenen Wochen hatten bereits Polen, Spanien, die Niederlande, Frankreich, Spanien und Slowenien angekündigt, den Energiecharta-Vertrag zu verlassen. Jetzt muss auch die EU nachziehen und austreten!

Konzerne wie Uniper, RWE oder Vattenfall haben den ECT in den vergangenen Jahren für teilweise milliardenschwere Klagen gegen Staaten genutzt, die aus fossilen Energien aussteigen oder höhere Umweltschutzstandards einführen wollten. Alleine in Deutschland schützt der Vertrag fossile Investitionen in Höhe von über 54 Milliarden Euro. Damit stellt der Vertrag eine große Gefahr…

Urgent statement re: mining-related activities in SML173 – Cockpit Country, Jamaica

Petchary's Blog

The lobby group Freedom Imaginaries is raising the alarm. Please read their statement below carefully.

This morning I attended a conference which provided valuable updates on the Kingston Harbour Ecosystem Adaptation Measures Project (KHEAM). This impressive project, spearheaded by the GraceKennedy Foundation, embraces several partners and is ensuring full community involvement and buy-in. I met Dwight Singh, a young man from one of the downtown communities close to Barnes Gully, which flows into the Harbour. He has been trained as a Mangrove Warden. I will write more about this later.

The keynote speaker at the KHEAM conference was Minister of Information Robert Morgan. The Minister began by talking about the harbour project, and then moved on to the topic which, he emphasised, he was really interested in discussing: the Cockpit Country Protected Area. He spoke for about half an hour on the topic, bringing maps of the different boundaries with…

Chris Hemsworth’s odds of acquiring Alzheimer’s are high – Los Angeles Times

“It really triggered something in me to want to take some time off. …. Now when I finish this tour this week, I’m going home and I’m going to have a good chunk of time off and just simplify,” he said. “Be with the kids, be with my wife.”

As for his Alzheimer’s risk, Hemsworth emphasized that while his DNA gives a “strong indication” of what could happen, it’s not a predetermination.

Uno de mis anhelos

En la niñez, en la primavera de la existencia, cuando uno es tan pequeño, la gente tiene juegos e ilusiones, sueños y planes, que, más tarde, en las siguientes estaciones de la vida -verano, otoño e invierno-, se diluyen con otros proyectos y realidades, y todo queda, con frecuencia, en recuerdos, en olvidos, en historias rotas. Y es que la infancia -al menos la de otras épocas-, inmersa en juegos, fantasías e inocencia, solía imaginar mucho y se miraba, en consecuencia, dueña de sus historias en algún instante del mañana. La adolescencia y la juventud se sumaban y, más tarde, llegaba la madurez o se aproximaba la vejez, y tantos anhelos quedaban desgarrados en los caminos, simplemente como motivos inconclusos. No siempre las personas consiguen hacer realidad sus aspiraciones pasadas. Este día quiero compartir, por medio de mis…

Violência Doméstica

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Muitas mulheres não sabem que sofrem violência. Isso é tão verdadeiro que, na maioria das vezes que sofrem agressões, elas mesmas se culpam. Porém, não compreendem que são vitimas de violência doméstica por parte de seus parceiros.
