He told the HS2 Hybrid Bill Committee that the new rail line will run over a viaduct opposite his mother‘s house in Balsall Common in the West Midlands and will disrupt his sleep, while construction works threaten to affect roads in the area for many years.
In his petition, Alex told MPs that he thinks HS2 is a „stupid“ idea which will cost more money than its supporters claim, and that people of his age-group will end up having to pay for it through their taxes.
Ja?
Dann guckt euch mal diese Aufnahme hier an.
For more than three decades, the United States and its European allies have committed one fundamental error after another in the process of creating a commonly held narrative that Iran was secretly pursuing a nuclear weapons program.
Unser engster Alliierter in der arabischen Welt und bester Kunde für Waffen, das Regime in Saudi-Arabien, hat den Blogger Raif Badawi am Freitag öffentlich ausgepeitscht.

Let us resist attempts to use this tragic moment as an opportunity to advance law enforcement surveillance powers. Freedom of speech can only thrive when we also have the right to privacy.
… you have General Sisi, the dictator of Egypt, who apparently is showing his solidarity for press freedom by continuing to preside over the imprisonment of multiple Al Jazeera journalists whose only crime was doing actual journalism and scores of other Egyptian journalists that never get mentioned in the news media…
… the—let’s remember that the United States bombed Al Jazeera in Afghanistan very early on after 9/11, then bombed the Sheraton Hotel in Basra, Iraq, where Al Jazeera journalists were the only journalists. Then they killed one of the most famous Al Jazeera correspondents in Baghdad in April of 2003, when Victoria Clarke, George Bush’s Pentagon spokesperson at the time, basically said if you’re an unembedded journalist, you’re with the terrorists, and if you die, it’s not our fault. They shelled the Palestine Hotel, killing a Reuters cameraman and the Spanish cameraman José Couso. So, yes, we should be condemning any and all attacks, especially when they’re killing journalists, no matter who the perpetrators are, but let’s not act as though the West’s hands are clean and that any one of those world leaders marching yesterday, that their hands are clean on these matters.

We’re also continuing our efforts to encrypt as much of the web as possible through EFF technical projects like HTTPS Everywhere and Let’s Encrypt. We’re helping to protect online privacy with Privacy Badger, an add-on to ward off online trackers, and Surveillance Self-Defense, an extensive toolkit to teach technology users how to use encryption and resist government surveillance.
Parker adds his name to the list of opposition to a move by Apple and Google to include device encryption by standard. The latest software version for iPhones, iPads, and Android devices encrypts user data with a passcode. Apple and Google say they do not have a master key, therefore forcing law enforcement and intelligence agencies to seek data from the device owner themselves.

Neoliberalism in Latin America has been a bust, a dud, a fiasco, except for the wealthy for whom it turned into the bonanza of a lifetime. The people know it, and they’re slowly, methodically, assuredly turning left.

Every so often over the past decade or so in the „age of terrorism,“ someone has raised the issue of why we treat „terrorism“ as somehow distinct from criminal activity. We let the intelligence community, rather than law enforcement, focus on terrorism (even as some in law enforcement — notably, the FBI and the NYPD — have tried to redefine their missions as being about terrorism). In the past, I‘ve actually seen the wisdom of treating terrorism and criminal activities as separate, especially when terrorism was part of a larger, coordinated effort (especially when connected with state-level actors).
The passionate and ubiquitous chants “I am Charlie,” and the like, should not be meant to indicate, even hint at, any association with the journal, at least in the context of defense of freedom of speech. Rather, they should express defense of the right of free expression whatever one thinks of the contents, even if they are regarded as hateful and depraved.
