🇪🇺 #GGF: Are Team Europe's development, trade, and investment policies all speaking the same language?

Maria Martin-Prat, Deputy Director General at DG TRADE, on the need for a unified approach - disconnected policies are simply "not effective, neither for us, nor for them".

Just have to take a beat to say that the people that have long warned about state violence and the militarization of law enforcement were right.

Being accountable to an international court means our Government has to answer to them if it tries to undermine your human rights. Be very suspicious of any UK politician who wants to remove that check on their powers.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets.

“In a way, he was like the country he lived in. Everything came too easily to him, but at least he knew it. About once a month he worried that he was a fraud….”🥺

Style lessons from Robert Redford, one of the most stylish men in the last century. 🧵
Apologies for not adding alt text to all these photos. My cat is screaming her head off and if I don't let her outside right this instance, where I have to accompany her, I might die.

It’s my first #UACES conference as Chair & so great to see everyone! With over 300 folks chatting all things European studies, it promises to be a fabulous conference.

All *solidarity* to many of our colleagues who can’t be here because university leadership would rather vandalise than build.

Never felt more powerless… vigils; marches; letters…my own govt would rather criminalise old people who say NO! and these are the people who have the power to do something using that power contra to the international law they claim is important for the preservation of the ‘good’ liberal order. /2
