  • Ah. No, what he basically did is gamble on the fact that the left couldn’t unite and that his candidates would face against the far-right, so he could once again campaign on the platform of “The only two options are me or the fascists”.

    The fact that the left managed to put aside their differences and unite completely took him by surprise and he now has to actually campaign. His main argument now is that the left is just as bad as the far-right and that he’s the only reasonable person in the room.

    You were right to think he didn’t have it in him, because he definitely doesn’t.













  • It should also be noted that a directive isn’t an “EU Law”, since it cannot be enforced directly (as opposed to a EU regulation such as the GDPR). It’s basically a framework that all EU member states have agreed they would each pass as a Law in their own jurisdiction (which explains the first quote in the article beginning by “Member States shall ensure …”).

    Since eprivacy is “just” a directive, each member state has since passed their own implementing Law that have the same basis but can vary in their specifics, so rules on tracking and cookies aren’t the exact same in each member state.
