For decades political parties called themselves ‘Christian’ and felt obliged to defend those values. Nowadays in Germany, only the AfD remains in this tradition.

Spain’s leftist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, during a state visit to Ankara, affirmed his commitment to Turkey’s accession to the European Union, describing the country as an “essential ally.”

The European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union, said on Thursday that under no circumstances will the bloc negotiate with the Lukashenko regime over the future of migrants stranded along the Polish-Belarusian border.

Despite top officials within the French government having recently come out in opposition to the EU providing funds to Poland for the construction of its wall along the Belarusian border, President Emmanuel Macron claimed that France will push for action on the migration when it assumes the EU presidency at the beginning of next year.

A good chair can be ‘conservative’ because it speaks of ‘home’—the place that Roger Scruton said “defines us, that we hold in trust for our descendants, and that we don’t want to spoil.”

Often referred to as “the most vaccinated place on earth,” the British-owned territory, which is situated on the southernmost tip of the Iberian peninsula, has witnessed the number of COVID-19 cases consistently rise throughout the fall months, leaving many questioning the vaccine’s efficacy in preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission.

French author, polemicist, and potential presidential candidate Éric Zemmour recently weighed in on the events unfolding at the Polish-Belarusian border, applauding Poland for its strength and determination amid an onslaught of migrant attacks.

Our institutions of higher learning nevertheless reveal how, even within a formal meritocracy, entrenched privilege can co-exist with an appearance of fairness. When the lower rungs of the ladder are kicked away by those already on top, social mobility grinds to a halt and the meritocratic promise loses its capacity to inspire.

Political and military leaders in Austria have called for massive protests against the government’s new anti-COVID lockdown measures.

Speaking on the lockdown, Austrian Interior Minister Karl Nehammer (ÖVP) said that measures will be enforced by police on an “unprecedented scale.” Those who break the rules risk fines of up to 1,450 euros. 

The mere hint that a point of view is outdated serves as a signal that it need not be taken seriously. It can be legitimately vilified and condemned.
