Now is the time for climate ambition & transparency.
Not greenwashing.
Now is the time to fast-track.
Not backtrack.
The future of humanity is at stake.
#ClimateAction cannot be optional.

Labour must now deal with the reality that much of its traditional working-class base that it lost to the Conservatives in 2019 has not returned — and has instead shifted to Reform. https://t.co/TlilLwSRtu

Digital technology offers an incredible opportunity to create a more just, equal, sustainable & peaceful future.
But breakthroughs must be oriented towards the good.
We need to make sure that technology is focused on the progress & security of all people & the planet we share.

Don't know which party to vote for in the European elections? Take this test: react to 30 policy statements on migration, the euro, climate etc, and find out which party suits you best!
(I did the test, and landed on the party I voted for.... last week!)

I condemn Israel’s actions which killed scores of innocent civilians who were only seeking shelter from this deadly conflict.
There is no safe place in Gaza.
This horror must stop.
Nederland is een rijk, tevreden en sociaal land. Maar die hoge 'brede welvaart' is niet vanzelfsprekend. Onze welvaart nu gaat ten koste van die van latere generaties. Als de huidige ontwikkelingen doorzetten, zullen onze (klein)kinderen slechter af zijn

A massive ground attack in Rafah would lead to an epic humanitarian disaster.
The international community must speak with one voice for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages, and a massive surge in life-saving aid.

Cruel, likely illegal practices in the Mediterranean, where the EU uses its muscle & agencies to make up for lack of humane, well-managed & sustainable migration & refugee policies, instead outsourcing its most brutal border practices to militias that it funds.
It's really important to see these stories. Big countries like France & the Netherlands hide behind frontier countries like Greece on migration issues. The truth is, brutality against asylum seekers is EU policy, not Greek, Italian or Maltese policy.
