Today Netanyahu speaks at the #UNGA. Guy Burton and I compared his discourses to those of Abbas (open access article): "Populism at the UN: comparing Netanyahu’s and Abbas’s speeches 2010-19", striking differences.

Once more I had a great time at the @ecpr.bsky.social general conference. Nice panels, great food (this year the organisation excelled at the catering kudos for them), many friends and colleagues and a charming and very alive city, Thessaloniki.

The PSOE reproduces the nativist framing that presents Spaniards living in Catalonia, but born in another autonomous region, as immigrants. It uses this as an argument to justify the transfer of migration powers & speaks of "the need for full integration in the country" and "linguistic integration"🧐

There have been many narcissistic delusional sociopaths leading nations and empires. They always ended up causing much suffering to their people and neighbours.
The most disturbing thing being the cowardice and cynicism of those around who backed them to benefit from the chaos

The "great replacement" theory has become very popular among Catalan secessionists. Here you can see a formulation by Jordi Graupera, a Catalan journalist and philosopher (translation from Catalan by DeepL).

The leaders of Podemos are expressing their satisfaction and support to Trump's plan to grant Putin big chunks of #Ukraine.
Btw, Irene Montero (who shares Trump's message on Twitter) is vice-chair of @greens-efa.eu (although very rarely seen in Strasbourg or Brussels).
