The board just dropped in the finance committee: 30 million in cuts still needed, equivalent to 300 FTE. Is this just more budgetary belt-tightening, or are these the first whispers of layoffs?

The not-so-funny thing about NL media is that they would say things like this:
"Only 18% of respondents in the RTL poll considered Geert Wilders a good choice for prime minister"
That is roughly 1/5 of the population eligible to vote considering a fully-blown racist to be a good choice for PM.

Erdoğan'dan Özel'e 500 bin liralık tazminat davası

Erdoğan'dan Özel'e 500 bin liralık tazminat davası
Cumhurbaşkanı Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, CHP Genel Başkanı Özgür Özel'e 500 bin TL'lik manevi tazminat davası açtı. Davaya gerekçe olarak Özgür Özel’in 5 temmuz günü MYK toplantısı sonrası yaptığı konuşma gerekçe gösterildi.
Cumhurbaşkanı Erdoğan'ın avukatı Hüseyin Aydın, CHP Lideri Özgür Özel'e açtıkları 500 bin liralık tazminat davasını şöyle duyurdu:
“CHP Genel Başkanı Özgür Özel'in 5 Temmuz 2025 tarihinde MYK sonrası yaptığı basın açıklamasında, Sayın Cumhurbaşkanımızı hedef alan mesnetsiz ithamları, hakaretamiz ifadeleri ve tehdit mahiyetindeki sözleri nedeniyle nedeniyle Ankara Asliye Hukuk Mahkemesinde 500 bin TL'lik manevi tazminat davası açılmıştır. Ayrıca Cumhurbaşkanına hakaret suçundan ve TCK 310/2 delaletiyle tehdit suçundan Ankara Cumhuriyet Başsavcılığı'na suç duyurusunda bulunulmuştur. Kamuoyunun bilgisine saygıyla arz olunur.”
Özgür Özel ne demişti?
CHP Genel Başkanı Özgür Özel, Adana Büyükşehir Belediyesi Başkanı Zeydan Karalar, Adıyaman Beleyesi Başkanı Abdurrahman Tutdere ve Antalya Büyükşehir Belediyesi Başkanı Muhittin Böcek'in gözaltına alınmasının ardından 5 Temmuz'da gerçekleşen MYK toplantısı sonrası kamuoyuna seslenmişti.
Özgür Özel, Erdoğan'a hitaben, "Madem birinci partisin, gel. Aday da olabiliyorsun. Vereceğiz oyu. Mecliste erken seçim kararını aldıracağız. Madem birinci partisin, gel. Allah'ın korkağı. Allah'ın korkağı, sen birinci parti olsan parende atarak sandığa gidersin" demişti.
Özel, Erdoğan'ın kendisini "Özgür Özel halkı sokağa davet ediyor" sözleriyle suçlamasına da şu yanıtı vermişti: "Ettiğim gün, 'Sokağa davet ediyorum' dedim, geldiler. 10 gün yasak koydun, 1 milyon kişi her gece toplandılar. Ben şimdi halkı eylem yapmak üzere önceden bildirdiğimiz, etrafında güvenlik önlemlerinin alındığı meydanlarda demokrasi eylemlerine davet ediyorum.
Sokağa davet edeceğim günü ben bilirim. O gün sen ne hâle düşeceğini kendin düşün. Ama bana bu milleti sokağa davet ettirme. Aklını başına topla”
"Cumhurbaşkanı'na hitaben "Seni yüzde 29 ile orada oturtmayacağız Erdoğan. Seni yüzde 29 ile orada oturtmam" diyen Özel, sözlerini şöyle sürdürmüştü: "Bu millet sandık kurulsun diye ne mücadele verdiyse, sandık konulsun diye de o mücadeleyi verir. Ondan sonra Mısır'daki meydanı izlediğiniz gibi TV'den izlersiniz demokrasi meydanlarını. Kimseyi darbeyle tehdit etmiyoruz, ama birisi darbeye kalkarsa, sandığı almaya kalkarsa bu millet kendi elleriyle sandığı geri getirir."
Soruşturma başlatılmıştı
MYK sonrası yaptığı konuşmaları nedeniyle Özgür Özel hakkında soruşturma başlatılmıştı. Soruşturma tutanağında "Suç işlemeye tahrik", "Kamu görevlisine görevi nedeniyle hakaret ve tehdit" suçlaları yöneltilmişti.
