“Nothing will be the same.”In a country still reeling from last month’s devastating earthquake, these words from Istanbul’s Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu highlight how the disaster now entirely pervades and steers national politics — with significant potential consequences for the two-decade-long rule of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who faces an election on May 14. İmamoğlu is one of the main opposition politicians seeking to eject the sitting president from power in two months time, and it has escaped no one’s attention that Erdoğan before him had used the Istanbul mayorship as a springboard to national office. And while Turkey’s opposition has rallied behind former bureaucrat Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu as the unity candidate to defeat Erdoğan in the race for the presidency, İmamoğlu has been identified as a vice-president in the wings. Addressing a crowd that greeted him with rapturous applause, İmamoğlu’s main theme at the March 1 event was the need to steel Istanbul itself —...Missing! The mystery of Britain’s vanishing workforce

LONDON — It’s a mystery testing the finest minds in Whitehall.What exactly has happened to more than half a million British workers who have vanished from the U.K. workforce since the outbreak of COVID-19?U.K. Treasury officials have been left scratching their heads by statistics showing that while unemployment is at a historic low, there are 516,000 more working-age Brits classed as “economically inactive” than there were before the pandemic.The collapse in productivity has served a crippling blow to the already-struggling British economy, which the IMF predicts will be the only major Western economy to shrink in 2023.The scale of the problem is such that U.K. Chancellor Jeremy Hunt now plans to make tackling economic inactivity one of the centerpieces of his first budget statement next week. “The U.K. is really quite unique among rich countries in having had a persistent fall in the size of its workforce after the pandemic,” said Xiaowei Xu, senior research econo...Bravo Poland for supporting Ukraine. Now make nice with Germany

Arndt Freytag von Loringhoven is a senior adviser at Berlin Global Advisors. He is a former German Ambassador to Poland.As Ukraine’s staunchest supporter, Poland’s place both in Europe and the world has been transformed. And with United States President Joe Biden recently completing his second visit to the Polish capital — even though he’s yet to visit Berlin or Paris — Europe’s heart, so it seems, now beats in Warsaw.Yet, the Polish government’s ongoing nationalist, illiberal policies continue to undermine Europe’s unity at the very same time.From a personal perspective, as a former German Ambassador to Poland, the most painful — and counterproductive — part of Polish policy is its antagonism toward my country. And if Europe is to succeed in beating Russian aggression, Warsaw and Berlin must learn to work together.Before Russia’s invasion, U.S.-Polish relations had hit rock bottom. As a presidential candidate, Biden cited Poland alongside Belarus as a ...Move over Trump, Johnson and Fabricant, there’s a new terrible haircut in town

Welcome to Declassified, a weekly humor column.That sound you can hear is Michael Fabricant screaming in anger.Fabricant is a British member of parliament far better known for what we might charitably call his haircut than for any of his political beliefs (although this week he did say that older people are better at spelling, which is competlie nonspence).Imagine someone cosplaying as Boris Johnson never having actually seen Boris Johnson and you’re getting close to the horror show that is Fabricant’s hair do (maybe hair don’t would be better). It looks very much like a wig but he says he isn’t, although he has admitted that “there is some — but only some — enhancement of the follicular area.”Anyway, Fabricant would almost certainly be horrified if he knew that he is now not even close to having European politics’ oddest haircut.
