Hardly a surprising move, considering what the favourite thing of the current US administration is…

Lasst uns doch einfach einige Weltverbände für Korruption, Pädophilie, Kriegsverbrechen usw. gründen! So richtig mit jährlichen internationalen Konferenzen, Awards, eigenen Fachzeitschriften, Nachwuchsförderung, Fortbildungs-Seminaren, eigener Lobby, und und und. Der Bedarf ist da!

🚨🚨 @coe.int of Europe said yesterday that the #US formally notified it that it would leave the Group of States against Corruption, or #GRECO. Only two other countries have left GRECO before — #Russia and #Belarus. The fall of the #US on the world scene is striking. apnews.com/article/trum...

It’s almost as if Brexit, in hindsight, was an act of ill advised geopolitical isolation, premeditated at the instigation of hostile foreign states looking to maximise and exploit disruption of European cooperation and security…

It's possible the next general election has just become another referendum on the EU.

I wrote for @thenewworldmag.bsky.social on the sheer significance of Andy Burnham putting compassion for others, empathy and care at the forefront of his political offering www.thenewworld.co.uk/zoe-grunewal...

The right says empathy is suicidal - but Andy Burnham thinks it might save us
The prime minister’s emotional conference speech laid down a challenge to populists who say compassion makes us weak

A country that will not fix its mistakes is a country that has given up on the future. And Brexit was, it’s now clear, a terrible, terrible mistake inews.co.uk/opinion/brex...

While not surprising it seems like there is an _acceleration_ by this administration to deconstruct the world order before they are smacked in the face by the elections.

Now that the gangster state alliance is forming, the rest of the middle powers need to have a plan to combat them, and it may not be the one they necessarily imagine first. Partnerships with African, Asian, and Latin American countries will be crucial in years to come along with Canada

Remember Wes Streetings big speech on our relationship with Trump's America? "We have the closest alliance of any two nations on earth we will always stand together against those who hate our freedom and those who wish us harm." Trump's mates are billionaires or authoritarian genocidal killers.

Maybe EU-funded projects should include as a prerequisite the bidders to be members/associate members of GRECO, and & other international bodies that combat corruption, protect citizens rights, promote efficiency - all those things dictators and oligarchs hate.
