Children remain victims of abuse as long as images of their victimization circulate online, and it is crucial that politics is required to take proactive action against these facts instead of only intervening afterward. #Kindermisbruik #OnlineVeiligheid #Kinderrechten (translated)

Maurits Vande Reyde called it incomprehensible that left-wing parties, including Anders chairman Frederic De Gucht, were advocating for the abolition of the headscarf ban in schools. He referred to the struggle for the separation of church and state and asked whether proponents would also allow a teacher to wear a T-shirt of Schild en Vrienden in front of the class. According to him, the argument that everyone should be able to be themselves seemed to apply less in that case. #onderwijs #vrijheid #sociaaldebatt (translated)

Van Cauwelaert referred to De Standaard and wrote that politicians could no longer be prosecuted for conflicts of interest under the new criminal code when they occurred publicly and served the public interest, according to the newspaper.

Strijder124 wrote that Minister Yesilgöz did not want to talk to Russia about peace. According to him, she said that the war could stop immediately if Vladimir Putin withdrew his troops, and that Ukraine and Europe should be at the table in discussions about lasting peace. According to the author, Yesilgöz also warned against what she perceived as naivety regarding the Russian threat. Strijder124 suggested that Yesilgöz's inflexible stance was exacerbating the problem. He advocated for concessions to Russia in exchange for peace and wrote that no one wanted a prolonged conflict with Russia. He also argued that the threat from Russia was being exaggerated and that Russia did not have the military capabilities to attack Europe. #Rusland #Oekraïne #Vrede (translated)

The author stated that, contrary to what the PS press release claimed and in line with statements from Prime Minister Boris Dillies, no agreement had been given to release the funds for the BGHM as long as Mr. Mostefa remained. The author referred to this as backroom politics. #politiek #transparantie #overheid #BE (translated)

Maurits Vande Reyde wrote that Conner Rousseau, together with N-VA and CD&V, had submitted a decree that he believed was intended to remove Jinnih Beels from the way. He stated that the measure went further than Beels and demonstrated how party leaders could abuse political power. Vande Reyde warned that everyone, according to him, could be affected by such legislation. He illustrated this with an example of someone from whom a party leader wanted to take a piece of land and suggested that parliament could pass laws for that purpose. He wrote that this had happened before, was happening now, and would continue to happen in the future. He also referred to Valerie Van Peel, who had spoken about this the previous day in De Afspraak. According to Vande Reyde, Van Peel had defended the decree as necessary "in the interest of the citizen" and "to ensure good governance," despite her earlier criticism of political games. He noted it was hopeful that Vlaams Belang, PVDA, Groen, and Anders were collectively opposing the decree. Vande Reyde called for personal conflicts to be resolved among themselves and not to use parliament or the rule of law for that purpose. #Politiek #Rechtsstaat #Machtsmisbruik (translated)

Sander Sassen wrote to Minister Sophie that the long waiting times in mental health care, in his opinion, did not stem from a lack of care budget, but because part of the money did not reach patients. He stated that fraud with personal budgets constituted a structural leakage of about 10-15 billion, and claimed that a large part of this was related to people with a migration background. As examples, he mentioned non-delivered care, paper care agencies, and claims for unprovided assistance. According to Sassen, people in the sector, the inspection, and municipalities were aware of this. He urged the minister to tackle fraud, care providers whom he claimed were abusing the system, and arrangements with family members before allocating additional money to mental health care. He also inquired whether the issue was politically too sensitive. #Zorgfraude #GGZ #Volksgezondheid (translated)

"Words about reconciliation and connection are not enough as long as economic and racial inequality continues to exist."

Ken je "Hart boven hard" nog? Dat was de zogezegd "grote beweging van burgers" die in 2019 protesteerde tegen de "onmenselijke besparingen van Jambon" (het ging toen over een paar miljoen euro minder uitgaven voor wat cultuurbobo's). Wel, die "spontane burgerbeweging" is intussen een volledig gesubsidieerd clubje geworden. Net genoeg subsidies voor 3 mensen een voltijdse baan te bezorgen. Wat ze doen? Iets met "klimaat, zorg en anti-racisme". Zoals honderden andere gesubsideerde organisaties. Komende maand wandelen ze mee met de klimaatmars en komen ze op een zaterdagnamiddag samen voor een praatavond met drie man en een paardenkop. Weer een maand hard gewerkt. De Vlaamse belastingbetaler betaalt voor die tewerkstelling 206.000 euro per jaar. Met groeten van Caroline Gennez. Protesteren tegen de regering doen ze sindsdien gek genoeg niet meer. Zolang de Vlaamse regering deze mentaliteit niet wijzigt, zal er nooit iets fundamenteel aan de uitgavenziekte veranderen. #VlaamseBelastingbetaler #Klimaatmars #Burgerbeweging

Stel je héél even voor dat iemand van FVD, PVV of BBB op een partijcongres roept: “We gaan ze vol op hun bek slaan!” Nederland zou onmiddellijk overschakelen naar crisisstand. Een week lang talkshows met dezelfde twaalf duiders. De NOS onderbreekt het Achtuurjournaal voor een extra uitzending van 94 minuten. Nieuwsuur laat drie hoogleraren onderzoeken of “bek” een extreemrechtse hondenfluit is. Een taalwetenschapper analyseert de historische betekenis van “vol”. De NCTV opent voor de zekerheid een dossier en iemand bij de NPO bestelt alvast een zesdelige documentaireserie: De Vuist van de Democratie. Maar als Jetten het roept? Applaus. Gejuich. Lachende gezichten. Ach ja. Kennelijk is zelfs “vol op hun bek slaan” gewoon verbindende politiek, zolang de juiste persoon de bokshandschoenen aantrekt. 😂🥊 #politiek #Nederland #media

Het artikel van Arnout Brouwers stelt dat de hervormde Verenigde Naties weinig kunnen bereiken zolang de Grote Machten de internationale orde ondermijnen en pleit voor het verbeteren van de effectiviteit van de VN op het gebied van crisispreventie en conflictbemiddeling. #VerenigdeNaties #internationaleOrde #hervorming
