COMMENT

Binoy Kampmark: Militarising Europe - The EU Defence Spending Bug

The March 6 meeting of the Special European Council was a chance for 27 leaders of the European Union to make that point. It was time to cash in on the Russia threat and promote a strategic vision that spoke of elevated dangers. It was, in other words, a good time to be throwing money at the militaries of the various member states.

Ian Powell: Brown’s Surgery Puts Health System At Increased Risk

Ian Powell delves upon Health Minister’s major announcement last week with a particular emphasis on the risks and realities of outsourcing non-acute surgery.

Ramzy Baroud: The Monkey’s Tail - How Netanyahu’s Ambitions Expose Israel’s Vulnerabilities

By targeting Egypt, Israel aims to project an image of prowess, and that it is unafraid to confront the most populous Arab nation. Yet, in doing so, it inadvertently exposes its own weaknesses. This behavior is wholly consistent with Netanyahu's legacy of running away forward.

Keith Rankin: Invoking Munich, 'Appeasement', And The 'Lessons Of History'

The Munich narrative is central to the 'Good War' morality trope, through which democracies (especially the United States) justified wars of aggression; what used to be called 'gunboat-diplomacy' in the British days of empire.

Peter Dunne: Dunne's Weekly - School Lunches Fiasco Shows What Happens When Social Policy Loses Focus

The school lunches debacle is a classic example of what happens when social policy projects lose sight of their original objectives. The seeds of the current crisis were sown when the objectives of the original scheme were broadened in 2019 to include all children in qualifying schools. That inevitably meant that it was likely to become financially unsustainable in the longer term.

Gordon Campbell: On The Government’s Stubborn Refusal To Invest For Growth

The coalition government is trying to attract foreign investment to generate economic growth, while cutting back drastically on its own investment in our economy.
