Conference organisers are usually furious when speakers pull out at the last minute. Not the German Marshall Fund, whose big Brussels jamboree this week lost a bunch of Congress members. GMFers are *thrilled*, not annoyed: the politicos are staying in DC to vote on Ukraine aid
The former Polish PM asserting Russian influence in EU politics would more credible if his political patron, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, hadn't spent a decade pushing a baseless conspiracy theory that Russia had murdered his brother. Morawiecki may be right, but simply not credible.
LVMH, the firm behind Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior, accounts for a higher share of French exports than the entire agricultural sector. ft.com/content/b8e68d…

Yuck.
How a conservative conference in Brussels morphed into a crisis of liberalism My Charlemagne in support of the National Conservatism conference, whose right to say things (which I think are plain wrong) was illegitimately curtailed. economist.com/europe/2024/04…

This week, the UK will likely pass a law saying Rwanda is "safe" to deport asylum seekers to. Meanwhile, I was recently denied boarding on a flight to Rwanda, presumably because of my journalism on the treatment of refugees there. (THREAD) 1/
Liz Truss has produced her memoirs. A good rule of thumb is a former leader should be entitled to one page of memoirs for every week in power. Thatcher gets a bit over 600 pages, Obama around 400 pages, Truss gets a Twitter thread.

French voters say the health system is the 2nd most important theme of the upcoming European elections. Problem: the EU has zero role to play in national health systems. Quite a few other "priorities" like inequality & schools also are decided more or less only at national level

The Orban/Farage/Braverman/Zémmour "National Conservative" conference has lost its venue in Brussels, seemingly after pressure from the mayor. I have not verified the details. But regardless of how one feels about these people, this is a terrible outcome europeanconservative.com/articles/news/…
A defeat of Ukraine would be a humbling episode for the West, a modern Suez moment. Having provided moral, military and financial support for two years, America and Europe have—perhaps inadvertently—put their own credibility on the line econ.st/3VZ7abp 👇
Young black men are more likely to vote for Trump than their white counterparts. As they age they swing massively to Biden, while whites get ever-Trumpier. Interesting breakdown of the American voter. economist.com/interactive/us…
