Op één van de drukste binnenlandse routes in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, tussen Londen en Edinburgh, heeft het vliegtuig veel marktaandeel verloren aan de trein sinds er concurrentie is tussen spoorwegmaatschappijen.

Meloni is voorstander van de oprichting van ‘hotspots’ in Afrika, waar kandidaat-asielzoekers van economische migranten zouden worden gescheiden. Goed plan.

In een zeventig minuten durende toespraak zei Meloni, regeringsleider van Italië, dat ze nooit enige sympathie voor antidemocratische regimes had gevoeld – met inbegrip van het fascisme.

@robdewijk Naïviteit of corruptie?

Een ‘eigen woning’ maar Brussel bepaalt.

Obsessief klimaatbeleid dat de vrijheid van het individu steeds verder inperkt, het leven onbetaalbaar maakt en uiteindelijk een onmeetbaar klein resultaat oplevert in globale opwarming.

Het centraliseren van de macht moet stoppen.

Marcel de Graaff (FvD) di 25 okt 2022, 21:15

De EU moet absoluut geen Oekraïense soldaten gaan trainen. Hierdoor wordt de EU partij in het conflict. EU wordt een doelwit voor Russische wapens.

De EU is suïcidaal!

Activist Brahim Ben Ali takes the floor and delivers a powerful speech: “You can say that these were the old days of Uber, that Uber has changed, but it still defends profits against rights. When we are worn out, we are being disposed like the wheels of a car." #UberFiles

“It was quite surreal to have the Amsterdam police coming for us, whilst we were being welcomed with open arms by the Dutch policy-makers with attractive corporate and profit tax rates.” - #UberFiles whistleblower Mark MacGann.

This practice is a gross violation of international law. The EU needs to prioritize human rights in its relations with Turkey and condition EU migration related funding to the authorities upon strict compliance with non-refoulement of refugees.

A concerning report by @hrw confirms that the practice of forced deportation of refugees to Syria by the Turkish authorities is still ongoing: HRW notes at least hundreds of deportations during this year alone. tinyurl.com/2vwctnbb

“Uber is not just an app to go around your city, it is an unprecedented mash. Once you have their data, you can sell people anything.” MacGann says Uber even accessed people’s Spotify data and that they could track drivers anywhere they went, whether they were online or offline.

Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) di 25 okt 2022, 17:36

On asking if he had blown the whistle before, MacGann says: “In September 2021 I wrote to this Committee. I had some remorse. I understand mailboxes are full, but I wrote to this Committee [EMPL] twice, asking to be heard. I got no response." #UberFiles

On this European day of justice, I urge Commissioner Reynders in the LIBE committee to uphold the proposal to freeze EU budget to Hungary, as long as the corruption and captured judiciary are not effectively tackled. Hungarian citizens count on the Commission.

Mark MacGann: “At Uber, we paid private detectives to investigate taxi unions. At the time we dug through people’s trash. When we found out about workers to organize, or God forbid, unionize that is when Uber realised that they needed to keep a lid on workers asking for rights.”

Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) di 25 okt 2022, 17:03

Mark MacGann: "Fake identities were created by Uber to monitor what organizing drivers were planning." #UberFiles

#UberFiles whistleblower Mark MacGann: “As taxi drivers took the streets, we told our drivers: ignore them. When politicians wanted to stop us, we co-opted them. We weaponised our drivers, and we weaponised our customers. Our mantra was: do whatever it takes: Uber-on”

Mark MacGann: “We told drivers they could make a decent living, be their own boss. It turned out we were selling a lie. That was never going to happen. For this business model to succeed someone had to suffer."
