Recap of @boeckler-stiftung.bsky.social conference on "Counter-Power and Counterstrategies in Transnational Value Chains" yesterday: 💡 Remember, all of us are merely located at different points of the same exploitative system. What we need is collective mobilization along the entire value chain! 🔗🤝

📃🚪"Legislative amendment through the back door" - find below our legal analysis of the German ministries' directive ordering the authority under the Supply Chain Act NOT to make use of several of its enforcement powers. ⏭️ Long story short: There are considerable doubts about its legality.

"One having a clear majority." - What Jörgen Warborn fails to say: that this majority would rely on the far-right. The EP's Omnibus rapporteur openly threatening to vote with the far-right is a shocking demonstration of how the EPP is willing to put democracy at risk for the benefit of companies.

Yesterday, we talked about the shift in discourse from sustainability to geopolitics at @boell.de and @swp-berlin.org and how this is being instrumentalized by business associations and an increasing number of politicians from Friedrich Merz to Emmanuel Macron to call for deregulating businesses. 🚨

Out now: @ecchr.bsky.social's 2024 annual report – including a piece by Annabell Brüggemann and me recapitulating the attacks on LkSG and CSDDD over the course of last year. Sadly, our analysis proves true all the same (or even more so) for what we’ve seen of 2025 so far. The fight continues!
