Hopes raised for a reset in relations with EU and other partners following the defeat of authoritarian president Serbian leader ousted by student movement in seismic election Hungary’s prime minister Péter Magyar – who came into power after ousting Viktor Orbán earlier this year – is clearly emotionally invested in the events in Serbia. After posting several times last night and drawing ( somewhat imperfect, but understandable ) parallels between the two victories, he is back at it this morning: “ Surely I wasn’t the only one feeling nostalgic when I saw those pictures coming out of Serbia last night? It’s symbolic that the “Budapest Express” reached Belgrade in politics before it did on the tracks.” Continue reading...

Anger on the streets could increasingly turn against the EU itself if it can’t show why cooperation makes people’s lives better Europe is living through an autumn of unusual discontent. What protesters from Paris to Milan to Madrid share is a deepening anxiety about the future and a growing anger at the gap between what they expect from their governments and what they feel governments are delivering, whether the issue is unaffordable housing, stagnant wages, the spiralling cost of living or failing schools. The electoral consequences of the failure to get a grip on this public anger are already with us. Spain goes to the polls next month in a snap election called after parliament voted down key housing reforms . France begins the process of electing a new president in April, while Poland, Italy and a string of smaller states will vote before the end of 2027. The stakes could not be higher.

Protesters waving Palestinian flags stormed the Colosseum in Rome, demonstrators looted shops in Barcelona and masked rioters hurled rocks, bottles and fireworks at police in Paris as another weekend of unrest unfolded across Europe.

Emmanuel Macron vows rioters will pay as 70,000 police deploy across France, while Italy, Belgium and Albania face escalating protest violence.

Two kinds of people are rioting these days in the City of Light — Parisians and parasites. The Parisians are high school kids frustrated that there’s no money in the budget to upgrade their crumbling schools. The parasites are a toxic mix of leftists, Palestinian sympathizers, and so-called anti-fascists attaching themselves to the legitimate protesters […]

The Europeans have gotten themselves into a pickle.

For skiers looking to reduce their carbon footprint, rail travel from the UK to the Alps has never been quicker or easier. Here’s how to get there Speeding effortlessly towards the slopes by train, you might wonder why you ever flew to a ski resort. On paper, it seems a short hop by plane; in reality, airport queues, cramped flights and long transfers can mean the journey eats up a whole day. Measured door-to-door, daytime rail travel from London can be as fast as flying, while taking a sleeper train gets you extra time on the slopes. And with Alpine glaciers suffering significant loss of snow cover as global temperatures rise, rail travel constitutes the biggest emissions saving a skier can make. Continue reading...

An electoral supercycle over the next year may redefine the continent’s future. But what’s happening on the streets is shaping it, too France sneezed, and Europe has again caught the cold. The wave of unrest which began with teenagers at a high school soon drew in hundreds of thousands of people nationwide and then spread across the continent . Protests have filled the streets in Lisbon and Madrid, and have ignited into violence in Milan , Brussels and Tirana as well as in French cities. French authorities say they are deploying 70,000 officers on Saturday and are allowing only marches organised by unions. They blame hard-left militants as well as opportunistic young perpetrators for last weekend’s destruction and looting, when a minority hijacked largely peaceful protests . But with fuel prices set to rise further over the winter, the demands and participants broadening, and President Macron utterly failing to meet the moment , there is no sign of an end to the wider discontent and no speedy resolution in sight.
