Richenel, volledige naam Hubertus Richenel Baars (Amsterdam, 20 april 1957 – Amsterdam, 13 maart 2020), was een Nederlands zanger die vooral in de jaren tachtig bekend was. Zijn carrière begon toen hij door een vriend met een eigen band werd gevraagd om als zanger in te vallen, hiervoor werkte hij bij een bank. Als lid van de discoformatie Luxor was hij daarnaast lokaal bekend als zanger en danser, vaak in "extravagante gewaden van eigen ontwerp". Dankzij zijn androgyne uiterlijk was hij een opvallende verschijning. De eerste single Statue of Desire werd niet erg populair. Zijn tweede single, L'Esclave endormi, was echter vooral in Engeland een grote hit. https://hvdommelen.nl/r/Richenel.html

Dutch diplomacy seems unable to accept that neutrality is an illusion, especially in the current geopolitical context with countries like the US, Russia, and Israel, which gives the Jetten government the opportunity to take action against the pressure on the International Criminal Court. #NederlandseDiplomatie #InternationaalRecht #Neutraliteit (translated)

Madelon Vos wrote that entrepreneurs, according to the CEO of DSM, needed a reliable government, but did not get one. She stated that Dutch politics trivialized the effects of the income tax in box 2 and the high rates in box 3, and that this policy severely affected entire sectors, including the Dutch crypto and precious metals sector with more than two million investors. Vos wrote that investors had to keep track of their real returns themselves, while some banks and brokers could not provide that data and the Tax Authority had not yet verified the calculations. According to her, investors would want to deduct inflation, transaction costs, currency costs, and subscription costs from that calculation. She also reported that the man who had been at the basis of the law had since advocated for the withdrawal of the amendment and the law and for a new piece of legislation. Furthermore, Vos pointed to the rising interest rates in France and the possible consequences of that for the Netherlands. She wondered if war was looming and wrote that the Netherlands was increasing pressure on Russia. https://t.co/X4T4ze43tV #ondernemen #beleggen #politiek (translated)

Max von Kreyfelt proposed a compulsory integration course for D66 in his column. According to him, the party spoke excellent Dutch, but still needed to learn how to deal with people who have different beliefs. He referred to Jan Paternotte, who mentioned the Renaissanceschool associated with Forum for Democracy in the Chamber and asked for stricter rules for new schools. According to Von Kreyfelt, Rob Jetten had advocated for a swift evaluation and possible legislative changes. The proposed course would, according to Von Kreyfelt, include lessons on civil rights, freedom of education, diversity, democracy, and equal rights. He wrote that citizens should be allowed to think independently and vote for other parties, and that a political background in itself was not an offense. Regarding Jetten's statements on October 9 about taking stronger action against certain schools and online channels where, in his view, young people were learning incorrect ideas about equal rights, Von Kreyfelt noted that Jetten had not mentioned the Renaissanceschool. As an exam task, Von Kreyfelt described a parent who wanted to pass on different beliefs to their child than D66. According to him, a student would succeed with an answer that did not involve inspection, improvement processes, or legislative changes. He concluded that D66 needed to learn that a free society also existed without its permission. #Inburgering #Diversiteit #Democratie (translated)
