🇬🇧📉 The UK is now standing right at the cliff-edge. In recent weeks the Labour Party has tried to pivot to some sort of patriotic centre-right model - together with conveniently-timed mass flag rallies. They’re completely desperate to try to hold the country together as it goes bankrupt.

🇪🇺🇷🇺🇧🇬 Flightradar24 denied reports of a malfunction in the electronic navigation system of the plane on which Ursula von der Leyen was flying to Bulgaria.

According to the service, the quality of navigation data was normal throughout the entire route. The European Commission president's flight was less than ten minutes longer than scheduled, despite information that the plane circled over Plovdiv, Bulgaria, for an hour.

Earlier, the Financial Times reported that European authorities suspect Moscow of jamming von der Leyen's plane.

"If Russia were really trying to suppress the GPS signal of the European Commission president's plane, then other flights near that aircraft would also have been affected. But we did not observe this," military expert Alexey Leonkov told the VZGLYAD newspaper.

🇪🇺 Governor of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde, says that the EU 'cannot grow' without migrants!

The European Union's economy would have looked far weaker after the pandemic without foreign workers, European Central Bank chief Christine Lagarde said Saturday, warning policymakers not to ignore migration’s role even as it fuels political tensions.

“Although they represented only around 9 percent of the total labor force in 2022, foreign workers have accounted for half of its growth over the past three years,” Lagarde told the gathering of central bankers. Without that contribution, she added, “labor market conditions could be tighter and output lower.”

Lagarde singled out Germany and Spain as examples. Germany’s GDP would be about 6 percent lower today without migrant labor, while Spain’s strong recovery also “owes much” to foreign workers, she said. Across the eurozone, employment has expanded by more than 4 percent since 2021, even as central bankers pushed through the steepest rate hikes in a generation.

The ECB president argued that migration has played a crucial role in offsetting Europe’s shrinking birth rate and growing appetite for shorter working hours. That, she said, helped companies expand output and damped inflationary pressures even as wages lagged behind prices.

📝: The only takeaway from this is that the people in charge of the EU look at mass migration as a "success" story, despite all the crime and ethnic tensions it caused because the GDP of the Eurozone hasn't shrunk in the past few years.

They never had the interest of their constituents in mind. The only thing that matters are their line go up graphs. Europeans and foreigners are to them just replaceable economic units, actually, migrants might even be better, 'cause they accept low wages, long hours and poor working conditions.

The Great Replacement will not stop until this mindset is eliminated.

🇹🇷🇨🇾🇮🇱 Turkey Said Ready to Boost Troops Force on Cyprus to 100,000

Turkish media reports said that a 35,000-strong army on the Turkish-Cypriot occupied northern third of the island will be bolstered with a massive building that could see as many as 100,000 troops stationed there.

TRT Haber said Turkey wants to step up its presence on the island as Cyprus gains strategic importance amid instability in the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean. Turkish troops have been stationed there since Turkish invasions in 1974.

The reports, including from other outlets, said Turkey wants to expand the force into a regional deterrent with land, naval, air, electronic warfare, and support components with Turkish officials also saying it’s a response to increased military activity by the United States, Israel, the United Kingdom, and Germany and the Greek-Cypriot side.

Turkey said that jeopardizes the Turkish-Cypriot minority. The island remains divided despite decades of failed diplomatic attempts at reunification and Turkish-Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar said he wants the United Nations to accept the isolated side that’s recognized only by Turkey.
