by

The decision to close the two public TV satellite channels that broadcast films and TV series is now a coincidence
ROMA While protests rage on social media, Usigrai appeals «to the CEO Fabrizio Salini to think again». The decision to close Rai Movie and Rai Premium is now a coincidence, the two satellite channels that broadcast films and TV series. Why, and this is the strongest accusation made by the internal union, «suppressing two channels like Rai Movie and Rai Premium means handing over a portion of the audience to pay TV and new platforms. What is the purpose of deleting channels that 24 hours up 24 broadcast new releases, but also great classics and in-depth programmes? To get everyone to migrate to Netflix?».

Elections in Finland: boom of Salvini's populist allies
by
The Finnish legislative elections mark a substantial head-to-head between social democrats and populists. The forecasts respected and the wishes of Matteo Salvini
The first results arrive, partial ones, from the Finnish elections: an important appointment also to understand what will happen, in the Scandinavian country, when we will vote for the renewal of the European Parliament.

A test, albeit partial, for the stability of the traditional parties of the Old Continent. According to the data that had arrived until recently, the Social Democratic Party, who currently leads a coalition government, confirmed itself firmly in first place, with the 19.1% of votes. A positive result, but not too satisfying.
The real surprise is the “national coalition party”, which placed second, being able to boast the 17,2% of consensus. I Real Finns, which are part of the “sovereignist front”, they stopped at 15,1%. It means that, in all likelihood, they should not have a chance to be part of the executive. Il populism, In short, in Finland it seemed to take root, but don't break through. The ballots already scrutinized, as we learned this information, they were equal to 35% of the total. The Agi reported to her. Then, but, the shock has arrived, with the True Finns recovering and second in what will be the final ranking. A reversal of the initial sensations, which was also confirmed by Matteo Salvini: “The populist friends of the Finns Party become the second largest party in Finland!!! Il 26 maggio, together with the League, Europe is finally changing”. This was the immediate comment from the Northern League leader.

The polls, in the past few weeks, they had talked of a collaboration between sovereignists and social democrats. A scenario that, according to current numbers, seems to have occurred. But we will have to wait a few more hours for the definitive results of these legislative elections. Bene, In the end, even the centrist party, who can celebrate reaching third place on the election podium: to this training, right now, is assigned the 15.4%. The populists, but, now they are seconds. They left behind both the “national coalition party” both the centrist one, who occupy fourth and third place in the ranking respectively. According to the projections, Indeed, the seats won by the Social Democrats should be 40, while those on whom the True Finns will sit will be 37. There is still little left until the end of the counting.
Among the issues that have allowed sovereignists to win in peripheral areas – as we always read on the Agi – also the proposals on climate change, which did not convince the border areas. This, with the management of migratory phenomena and the cuts to the welfare system, represented the main theme of the past electoral campaign

Criticism of Soros is prohibited: Roger Scruton fired
by

As reported The Eyes of War, the well-known philosopher and writer Roger Scruton, 75 years, professor at the University of Buckingham, was dismissed with immediate effect from the presidency of the “Building better” commission, building beautiful”, dependent on the Ministry of Public Works.
The academic ended up in the storm due to an interview given to NewStatesman. Roger Scruton explained that "anyone who doesn't think there is a Soros empire in Hungary has not looked at the facts" and that it is "absurdity" to accuse the Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán of anti-Semitism. The same goes for the accusations of Islamophobia leveled at Orbàn. “Hungarians were extremely alarmed by the sudden invasion of huge tribes of Muslims from the Middle East”. Islamophobia is, he underlined, “a propaganda word invented by the Muslim Brotherhood to stop discussion on an important issue”.

Roger Scruton fired after interview

The academic also criticized the rise of China: “They are creating robots from their own people, every Chinese is a kind of replica of the next and this is a very scary thing". And about globalization and the free market: “It is scandalous that Amazon does not pay any taxes in this country, or almost nothing, but you operate from Luxembourg, which is a small tin country, which seems to have more and more power over us. Much more could have been done to regulate international affairs.".
Following the interview, the English government dismissed him from the presidency of the “Building better” commission with immediate effect, building beautiful”, dependent on the Ministry of Public Works. Role he held free of charge. “Professor Scruton – underlined a ministry spokesperson – has been dismissed with immediate effect for his unacceptable comments”.
The dictatorship of politically correct it's reality.

The Central European University, established by George Soros, will move part of its courses to Austria starting from September due to the restrictions introduced by the Hungarian government.
The dispute between Viktor Orban and Soros is one of the main issues that led to the suspension of Fidesz by the European People's Party before the May elections.
As he says IlGiornale.it, at the end of December George Soros and his university were forced to abandon Budapest after the regulations passed by the Hungarian government against the activities of the much criticized university. From September 2019 Cue will open its doors in Vienna, in Austria. And who knows how it will be received.

A European institution has been ousted from an EU member country”, Michael Ignatieff shouted yesterday, president of the CEU, in an official press release published on the university website.
