‘Internal matter’: Govt slams anti-CAA resolution in EU Parliament

Neo-fascism is of global concern. In a strong response to EU Parliament’s draft resolution against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the government on Sunday said that the matter is entirely internal to India. “EU Parliament should not take action that call into question rights and authority of democratically elected legislatures,” sources said.

Trump to meet with Israel’s Netanyahu and Gantz on peace plan on Monday

The BBC is a pillar of civilisation. No wonder populists want to destroy it | Will Hutton

Enlightenment values are anathema to parties that only thrive amid widespread ignorance

The most alarming feature of our times is the disintegration of a shared belief in the values and principles of the European Enlightenment. They were never shouted from the hilltops, but were key to what we used to hold in common, and their collapse was a chief cause of Brexit. Unless they are quickly rediscovered and seen as a point around which to reunite, the BBC will now fall as well.

Enlightenment values come in an interconnected bundle. First and foremost is the idea that there are objective truths and an accompanying public realm, held for all citizens, in which these truths can be tried and tested by argument, evidence and reason. It follows that there must be freedom to think and freely express oneself – otherwise no argument is possible. Science and fact will thus trump partisan ideology and superstition.

Independence Day will expose Brexit as a ruse to free an imaginary nation | Fintan O’Toole

Next Friday, Britain officially leaves the EU but it’s difficult to see who or what is being liberated. Perhaps an England without London?

We know what the week running up to the glorious day of Brexit is supposed to be like. A few nights before the original chosen date of 29 March 2019, Boris Johnson was “in conversation” with his old boss at the Telegraph, Charles Moore, at Methodist Central Hall in Westminster. Johnson was out of office then, and free to indulge himself without constraint.

He told the audience that this “was meant to be the week when church bells were rung, coins struck, stamps issued and bonfires lit to send beacons of freedom from hilltop to hilltop. This was the Friday when Charles Moore’s retainers were meant to be weaving through the moonlit lanes of Sussex, half blind with scrumpy, singing Brexit shanties at the tops of their voices and beating the hedgerows with staves.” Moore replied that Johnson was right, “but in fact I had already stood these good people down, since I could see what was coming”.
