Britain has just lost a big chance to avoid Dark Ages 2.0


Theresa May has lost significant power in the last UK election, yet it's still enough for her in order to apply the most brutal version of the neoliberal agenda, pushing the UK into the new Dark Ages.

Unless a dramatic change happens, May is about to take advantage of all the time she can get, in order to proceed according to the plan of the plutocratic elites.

Some things that should be considered almost certain under her extended term:

  • Full privatization of the NHS for the sake of the private vultures. As described previously: The National Health Service in the UK has been one of the most successful healthcare systems in the West, run publicly. Yet, the conservatives (and to some extent the Labour before Corbyn) have been fully taken over by the big business lobbyists who have tried for decades to loot NHS, mainly because they are pursuing more tax-breaks and opportunities for more profits from the healthcare sector.

  • Further slaughtering of pensions and wages. Massive lay-offs in the public sector. Further deregulation of the labor market.

  • Dramatic increase in college-university fees.

  • Further repression measures under the pretext of terrorism. These will be used against any potential popular uprise against the neoliberal hurricane that May is planning to impose.

  • Police militarization and privatization. Further cuts in the numbers of public officers will be used by the government to open the road to private security companies.

  • Μilitary privatization. Further opening of the security sector to private companies of mercenaries, approaching the US model.

  • Further tax-cuts for the super-rich, more taxes for the middle class.

A possible scenario concerning Brexit

The financial lobbies have just bought some extra time to reverse Brexit. They will exercise unprecedented pressure both on May and her party, as well as on the EU financial center in Frankfurt.

The conservatives will be forced to re-negotiate with the Brussels-Berlin axis in order to work together and find a trick to cancel Brexit.

Simultaneously, the lobbies will push Brussels (and mostly Berlin and Frankfurt) to make significant retreats that will become a tool in the hands of Theresa May and the Tories to reverse Brexit.

This is the point of no-return. Britain has just lost a unique chance to avoid Dark Ages 2.0 by giving a clear victory to the Labour party under Jeremy Corbyn. We sincerely hope that we are wrong ...

In an absolutely repulsive show, the DNC clowns of horror, ignore genocide, bow to billionaires

globinfo freexchange   The absolute moral bankruptcy of the Democratic Party was depicted perfectly during the recent DNC convention . As the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank is still taking place, the DNC clowns of horror demonstrated their complete lack of morality, beyond any doubt.   The gathering of immoral supporters and billionaires, supposedly representing the "progressive" America, was nothing more than a confirmation that the big money and the Zionist agendas will never change to the slightest.  The DNC clowns put the LGBTQ  masks for a while, to give something to progressive voters against the alt-right Orange Clown of the Republicans. But nothing more beyond that. No planning to fight inequality and poverty. No promise to end disastrous wars. Nothing about any thought on the termination of the biggest crime of our century: the genocide of the Palestinian people.   One of the most disgusting moments was Genocide Joe's tears, not for the thousand

Greece's Wiretapping scandal: the chronicle of a cover-up

The wiretapping case had a “happy ending” for the National Security Service and the government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis, since the Supreme Court announced that it will only prosecute four private persons for misdemeanours. Here are all the steps that the investigation failed to take.   by Eliza Triantafillou / Tasos Telloglou   Part 2 - In the beginning was the Prosecutor's Office   The investigation of the case by the Public Prosecutor's Office began ex officio in April 2022, immediately after the first publications by inside story about the illegal wiretapping of journalist Thanasis Koukakis' mobile phone. However, the procedure did not move quickly –not necessarily due to the prosecutors who were assigned to the case– thus allowing for precious time to pass in favour of those involved and of course in favour of the government, which from the first moment wished to downplay the case that harmed its image. Regardless of who is to blame –the reluctance of prosecutors or, acco

US Rushing Weapons to Israel Reveals Lie of Harris ‘Working’ Towards Ceasefire

At a campaign rally on Thursday in Georgia, Democratic nominee for President Kamala Harris said that she and current US President Joe Biden are “working around the clock” to secure a hostage deal and ceasefire in Gaza. That same day, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that the US was “rushing” arms shipments to Israel.   Since her ascension to the top of the Democratic presidential ticket, Kamala Harris has tried to appear sympathetic to the Palestinian cause while reaffirming her strong commitment to the state of Israel, two contradictory stances that cannot possibly exist in the same place at the same time. Through their actions, Harris and the rest of the Democratic party have shown which of those two stances they back up with action and which is only empty rhetoric. According to the report, the US has been increasing weapon shipments to Israel since July and August was the second busiest month for US weapon shipments since October. The report notes that the weapons are ostensibly

Venezuela: While US Politicians Call Fraud, American Election Observers Endorse Results

by Alan Macleod   Part 4 - An Economic, Political and Psychological War   Nicolas Maduro came to power in 2013 in a similarly heavily-monitored election. The results were endorsed globally, almost without exception; the United States was the only country to refuse to recognize his victory. Since his rise to power, Washington has waged a relentless economic war on Venezuela in an attempt to strangle his administration. There are currently over 900 U.S. sanctions against the country. The effect has been devastating: under the weight of the American blockade, Venezuela’s oil industry collapsed, causing it to lose 99% of its international income. Under threats of secondary sanctions, countries and businesses refused to trade with Venezuela, causing massive shortages of food and other necessary goods. A report published by the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a D.C. think tank, found that, between 2017 and 2018, the U.S. blockade had killed more than 40,000 people. One American Unit
