Translated from  the original at Barrikade.de The odious spectacle of the powerful known as the G20 summit in Hamburg has been over for a year - but is it over? Not really, and not for everyone. Six of the more than 50 people arrested following the summit are still imprisoned in Billwerder Prison, on the eastern edge of Hamburg. Four people are still on trial almost daily until the end of July. New proceedings on the G20 are opened almost every week. More than 50 defendants have already been sentenced to hefty prison terms, suspended sentences or fines. Many of the over 400 people temporarily arrested and detained at the beginning of July are still waiting to be tried. Apartments, houses, libraries and projects have been and are still being searched, hundreds of "wanted" photographs are still being published a veritable manhunt organized by the prosecution and the press continues. This has also been happening abroad since April. Not only in Switzerland, Denmark, Gr...

The Establishment’s Question Times, commentators, and newspapers: how they long for a “sensible” and “responsible” opposition, and how the public vehemently rejects their every appeal. From the Centrist Dads’ knight in armour, David Miliband, to the ghost-like Liberal Democrats, the options on the table are unpopular at best and objects of ridicule at worst. Attempts at creating a prepackaged, out-of-the box neoliberal party along the lines of Emmanuel Macron’s En Marche have flopped, despite the best efforts of Renew and similar elitist watering holes. Seeing this situation, it is only natural that Tony Blair, whose supporters can’t even muster 5 percent of the vote in the party he nearly destroyed, is seething with anger. His pet think tank, The Tony Blair Institute For Global Change, described by the New York Times of all outlets as “a front for the restoration of the global elite,” has worked overtime railing against “extremism” and “ideology,” as if it were still 1991...
