Great podcast about the European Commission’s practice of mass deletion of emails about important topics such as tax rulings.
There’s already a problem with a lack of transparency in the way European countries give companies sweetheart tax deals. Add more opacity when authorities delete the emails dealing with that problem. Kafkaesque, quoi. @MartijnNouwen @UniLeidenNews @EU_Taxud 2/7

Wonder why US admits Hungary isn’t a democracy but EU won’t?
B/c if 🇪🇺 leaders admit Hungary is an autocracy, they’ll have to recognize that;
1) they’ve failed to stand up to Orban regime
2) EU is violating Art 10 TEU (h/t @John_Cotter) by letting an autocracy sit in @EUCouncil
Countries and/or governments invited to the Summit for Democracy in 2021, according to @politico.
The only EU country that didn’t receive an invitation: HUNGARY

"Historic" is not a description to be used lightly. But today marks the day that the EU is for the first time formally allowed to issue debt worth several hundred billion euros to finance common expenditure.
This is just that: historic.
Excellent news!
All 27 #EU Member States have now approved the Own Resources Decision - the piece of legislation that makes it possible for @EU_Commission to borrow for #NextGenerationEU - and notified @EUCouncilPress.
Borrowing for the recovery can now start as of June!🇪🇺💪

This Conference is for all Europeans to debate a shared vision of what we want our Union to be.
It’s an opportunity to bring Europeans together. To rally around a common ambition for our future, as previous generations did. #CoFoE

Heel trots op mijn artikel! Jongeren zijn de toekomst, maar worden helaas onvoldoende gerepresenteerd in de media. Deze #TK21 kandidaten hebben inspirerende verhalen die een platform verdienen. Lees hun verhaal en ga stemmen op 17 maart! #TweedeKamerVerkiezingen
‘Er is op dit moment één iemand in de kamer onder de dertig, en diegene is 29, dus dat kan in mijn ogen wel wat jonger.’ @StanPeters97 (PvdA) over jongeren in de politiek en welke thema’s nu van cruciaal belang zijn. #tweedekamerverkiezing #EUolifant
