Циркът е висше изкуство, което изисква изключителна дисциплина, умение, упорство творчество и работа в екип. Частица от секундата невнимание или неточност и може да си в инвалидна количка до края на живота си.
Защо по дяволите сравняват българската политика с цирк?!
The @europarl just voted to burn yet more public money on "security & defence." Appalling!
The security we demand is the security of a decent job & a place to live. The defence we want is a defence of our rights. We reject a Europe that robs from the poor to bankroll slaughter.
China is developing new solutions to the landlord-issue.
One of these solutions, being trialed in the province of Zhejiang is as follows. While there is no property tax on one home, the government does have taxes on your second home. Want a third? Taxes go sky-high. This makes it unthinkable to simply use real estate as an investment. President Xi said "houses are for living in, not speculation."
This goes for people and corporations alike. In this way, it is hoped, homes become place for people to live in, not investments for the rich. If it works well in Zhejiang, this policy will likely be rolled out to the whole country.
This is a separate strategy to that used in extreme poverty alleviation where the government builds free or sometimes near-free (1,000 RMB) homes for the poorest communities.

How neo-colonialism works: Example from a speech at the Russia-Africa Summit in St. Petersburg:
🔹$25 billion — How much money earned by countries that GROW coffee beans. These will be primarily African and Latin American nations.
🔹$35 billion — Starbucks revenue!
🔹$400+ billion — How much other countries earn from the coffee business!
Russia on the Grain Deal at the UN Security Council:
"Most of you expressed, in one way or another, disappointment at the termination of the so-called grain deal that provided for exports of Ukrainian grain to global markets. I have a question to you. What was it that you expected?
From the very start, we have been drawing everyone’s attention to the fact that the initiative did not meet the initially proclaimed goal and was gaining a well-defined commercial nature. In fact, from the very beginning, developed countries have taken the lead among those buying food from Ukraine. However, no steps were taken to remedy this trend.
During the Black Sea Initiative, a total of 32.8 million tonnes of cargo was exported, of which more than 70% went to high- and upper-middle-income countries, including the European Union. The poorest states, notably Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Sudan, and Somalia, accounted for less than 3%...
Such geography and commercialization of an initially humanitarian initiative is easily explained by the fact that the owners of a significant part of Ukrainian arable land (more than 17 million hectares) are Western corporations Cargill, DuPont and Monsanto. They bought up Ukrainian land after Kiev lifted a 20-year moratorium on its sale at the request of the IMF and became the main beneficiaries of Ukrainian grain exports.
On the other hand, the Europeans who buy Ukrainian food at dumping prices then process it at home and resell as ready-to-consume goods with high added value. In other words, they earn twice. What does this have to do with the task of getting food delivered to the poorest countries, about which we have heard again today?"

Your marriage partner remains to be your greatest;
• Financial
• Physical
• Emotional decision.
Marry wrong and you'll suffer forever.
If you're still single, understand this...
Brilliant synopsis of the historical context for the Ukraine War. Can anyone read this and still maintain, as the Biden administration does incessantly, that the invasion was “unprovoked”? #Kennedy24

Отвътре ме човърка за несвършената работа, но не смея да го прекъсна.
Мил ми е.
Толкова мъдрост е събрал, а колко малко хора имат време да го чуят?
След 2 часа слизам удовлетворена: едва ли можех по-смислено да ги прекарам.
Дай Боже всекиму 86 години здраве и смислен живот.
Приготвила съм компютъра да отметна 2 часа задачи и чакам автобуса да тръгне. Изневиделица се качва роднина. Размества жената до мен и с радост се настанява.
"Отиде ми работата" веднага помислям.
2 часа моят чичо ме залива с истории от 86ия си жив��т.

Please make sure you absolutely read the letter that Julian #Assange just wrote to #KingCharles in the occasion of #CoronationDay.
It should be on ALL UK media, had it been written by #Navalny, you would read 3,000 of articles by UK and US press:
