No es un grupo parlamentario con brazo mediático; es un grupo mediático con brazo parlamentario. No les interesa resolver este y otros problemas, porque se les cae el bulo que pretenden vender. Que la política no sirve, que nadie excepto ellos hace nada por Palestina, y que ahora toca VP Abascal.

But you're commenting on an EU figure, saying that these solar additions are not replacing fossil fuels, which they're actually doing, and where emissions are in fact going down, for what it's worth.

In 2024, there was a significant decline in gas and coal power generation. The electricity sector in the EU is becoming increasingly decarbonised, and the integration of batteries will hopefully accelerate this positive trend.

But solar (and wind) are replacing fossil fuels. Coal power generation in the EU has been declining for more than a decade, and gas power generation has been decreasing over the last 5 years.

Ein so häufiger Vorgang in letzter Zeit. "Belästigt uns nicht mit eurem Leid und euren Forderungen" - nur um die narzisstische Illusion aufrecht zu erhalten, dass man Israel stützen müsse, um Wiedergutmachung für die Verbrechen der Großeltern zu leisten. Viele "Progressive" entlarven sich hier.

Unser Abgeordneter Ahmed Abed, der im Genozid Israels mehrere Familienangehörige verloren hat, widersprach entschieden. Als er widersprach, griff der Vorsteher drastisch durch und schloss ihn von der Sitzung aus. (4/5)

Today, in Berlin's demonstration against the genocide in Gaza, someone hung a banner reading "long live Israel" with an antifascist logo in it. Such an insult to a symbol of antifascist resistance could only happen in Germany.

And if you’re in Berlin and looking for a climbing lead/top-rope partner, let me know! I promise I can talk about more than economics.

Jordi Schröder Bosch @jordischroeder.bsky.social · 27d

Excited to share that I’m starting a PhD at FU Berlin in the EQUALFIN program, funded by the Hans-Böckler-Stiftung! My research will focus on shifts in the IMFS, such as changing dynamics between the dollar and oil prices. If you’re in Berlin and/or working on related topics, I’d love to connect.

Given Trump’s current attacks on the Fed, we should not fall back on defending the policy regime that is partly responsible for the current state of affairs. It is imperative to push our own progressive project. Worth reading @adamtooze.bsky.social here:

Este articulo parece escrito como si las dos últimas décadas no hubieran existido y pasa por alto la diferencia fundamental entre deuda en moneda propia y moneda extranjera.
Conviene recordar que el gasto público destinado al pago de intereses es bajo desde una perspectiva histórica.

El problema del títol d'"economista" és que un cap de suro amb un títol d'ADE, un màster en neuromarketing (lol) i una experiència laboral basada en prometre retorns del 15% sense risc (lol), se'l pot autoatorgar sense que ningú ho qüestioni.

Across 142 routes in Europe, trains are on average twice as expensive as flights

On some routes, they are 26 times the price

Low-cost airlines profit from unfair tax exemptions, but trains are burdened with VAT, energy taxes and high track fees

Governments and the EU must stop rewarding polluters

Low-cost flights up to 26 times cheaper than trains - Greenpeace European Unit

Brussels, 21 August 2025 – A new Europe-wide Greenpeace study shows that climate-damaging flying is still cheaper than taking the train on a majority of  cross-border routes – even though…

Sí, pero esto es una idiosincrasia del último ciclo (impulsado por la riqueza) comparado con ciclos anteriores (impulsados por el crédito)(www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10....). Es decir, también aplica a inversores domésticos.

Y volviendo al principio, seguimos viendo diferencias marcadas en el ciclo. A mí lo que me parece sorprendente del período post-GFC es la disciplina de capital de las constructoras, garantizando que la vivienda sea un activo escaso. Para paliar esto, más que regulación, necesitas inversión pública.

Tampoco sé hasta qué punto ganamos mucho hablando de “capital” en este contexto. Sin haberlo analizado a fondo, a mi parecer estas compras provienen más de individuos muy ricos que de fondos de inversión, cuya principal inversión en bienes raíces se destina en oficinas.
