Meanwhile, the fourth major heatwave of 2026 is sweeping across Germany and Europe, with temperatures exceeding 40 °C – levels never before recorded at local weather stations in the past 150 years. What is particularly worrying and critical is the increasing number of consecutive tropical nights with temperatures of over 20, 25 or even 30 […]
For almost 30 years, Germany too has been pursuing financial voodoo economics, loosely based on the trickle-down theory, which – without any statistical basis whatsoever – claims that the economy will flourish if taxes on the rich are cut. And some of the prosperity generated in this way would then ‘trickle down’ to those below. […]
No one will be able to say in future that they didn’t know. That they lacked the facts about the 2026 elections. Because the facts are out there, live and available to anyone who’s even slightly curious about their own reality. And all presented with a touch of humour, too. Because that’s exactly what the […]
The current Merz government at federal level did, after all, get off to a start with a 500-billion-euro package that had been approved by the previous Bundestag.

Especially when Uncle Herbert, sitting at the family dinner table, once again lets his gut feeling take over, claiming that it used to be just as hot in the past and that the climate has always been changing anyway. But gut feeling has nothing to do with facts. […]
The energy transition is working. And sensible governments would simply promote it wherever possible. Even in Saxony, where for years the mantra of the all-important ‘domestic lignite’ prevailed, the transformation of the energy landscape is having a positive impact. After all, the less lignite that is burnt to generate energy, the lower energy consumption will […]
In September 2026, Saxony-Anhalt will elect a new state parliament. The AfD stands a good chance of becoming the largest party there. But what would less Europe, less immigration and lower levels of public investment mean for the people? A brief study by the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW) highlights a now well-known AfD […]
If the current federal government gets its way with its pension plans, it will become even harder for many people who have actually reached retirement age to make ends meet. They are already having to get by on meagre pensions. But rather than having to beg the local authorities for help, more and more older […]
