@djr2024 The last half-decent Labour government ended just short of 50 years ago, in the summer of 1976, when #DenisHealey caved to the #IMF.

...for #Turkey, detrimental for #Germany's democratic process and similar in nature to the fatal #CitizensUnitedVsFEC #SCOTUS decision:

"World events do not occur by accident.
They are made to happen, whether it is to do with national issues or commerce; and most of them are staged and managed by those who hold the #PurseStrings. —
