The General Strike was “the greatest effort the British workers had ever made,” wrote the historian and economist G.D.H.Cole. One hundred years ago, on May 4, 1926, a million British workers walked off their jobs. counterpunch.org/2026/05/07/the…

Sabine Weyand, funcionaria europea desde hace más de tres décadas y todopoderosa directora general de Comercio, ha sido defenestrada porque hace unos meses dijo en público lo que todos decían en privado. El acuerdo entre Von der Leyen y Trump en Escocia en julio del año pasado ni se negoció, Von der Leyen lo aceptó para evitar, creía, una conflicto mayor. Fue una humillación inútil. La funcionaria será asesora "hors classe" (sueldo y poco trabajo), pero se irá a Florencia a dar clases al Instituto Europeo, lejos de Von der Leyen y de Seibert, su jefe de Gabinete. @WeyandSabine (detrás de la inmensa mayoría de los acuerdos comerciales europeos vigentes, yo la he seguido sobre todo por Mercosur) quiso plantar cara a Trump. Defender los intereses generales europeos sabiendo que agachar la cerviz no iba a funcionar. Su jefa prefirió defender los intereses generales de la industria alemana y la equivocada idea de que decir que sí siempre al bully serviría para algo. Weyand, también alemana, miró por todos. Honor a Weyand.

Progressives need to ground international commitments to democratic accountability at home and engage with social movements abroad. Few political figures have articulated this as clearly as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. dissentmagazine.org/online_article…
