#SOTEU : while Europe faces social, environmental and geopolitical pressures, it's funny how the solution always happens to be exactly what corporate lobbyists have been asking for, and they already have more access to EU decision-making than anyone. Here's our take on AI, deregulation and climate👇

It's #SOTEU day in Brussels! 🎉 von der Leyen will tell MEPs "our democracy protects what matters", while the Commission has spent the past year churning out deregulation omnibuses that do exactly the opposite. As Orwell would say: 2 + 2 = 5. 🙃 🎥 Watch our take 👇

"Let me send a very clear message: Women are here to stay. We will defend our rights. And we will continue to stand up for our values every single day." — President Ursula von der Leyen at #SOTEU 2026

"We want to bring the relationship with Canada to the highest level possible. Dear Mark J. Carney, I would like to work with you on opening the door for Canada to be the first associate member of the EU." — President von der Leyen at #SOTEU 2026

The EU Kids Act "changes the fundamental open nature of the internet and makes it a permission-based system where you are required to pass through an identity checkpoint to access information. Imposing the same complex compliance requirements on [small] services risks pushing them out."

Canada is invited to become the first ‘associate member’ of the EU. The status announced by Von der Leyen during the State of the Union is an entirely new one, with details yet to be made clear. The European Commission’s President also proposed a new alliance with Ottawa covering tech, critical raw materials, energy and defence. https://mediafaro.org/article/20260916-canada-is-invited-to-become-the-first-associate-member-of-the-eu?mf_channel=mastodon&action=forward #EU #Canada #SOTEU #MarkCarney #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #CETA #Trade #Business #Politics #Tech #CriticalRawMaterials #Energy #Defence

1/ 🛑 President Ursula von der Leyen’s #SOTEU announcement on age-gating and banning children’s access to online spaces comes with no surprise. 📝 There is a fundamental problem with the approach: you won’t be making harmful platform safer by preventing young people from using them, you can only achieve that by regulating the platforms in the very first place.

Ursula Von der Leyen is just starting her #StateOfTheEU speech (#SOTEU) with "It was the best of times it was the worst of times" Oh brother Liveposting the SOTEU here
