New York Times endorses Clinton, Kasich

Posted:

NEW YORK (AFP) - The New York Times on Saturday endorsed Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination and Ohio Governor John Kasich for that of the Republicans.The liberal newspapers picks come just two days before voters in Iowa cast ballots in the first nominating contest of the 2016 presidential election season.The Times editorial board opted for a front-runner and a moderate underdog in endorsing Clinton for the Democrats and Kasich for the Republicans.Voters have the chance to choose one of the most broadly and deeply qualified presidential candidates in modern history, the newspaper said of Clinton, a former secretary of state, senator from New York and First Lady.Clinton is in a dead heat with Bernie Sanders in Iowa, and the Vermont senator is leading the polls in New Hampshire, the next primary state, which votes February 9. Nationally, though, Clinton is ahead by a wide margin.The Times credited Sanders with generating enthusiasm among Democratic voters, but in the end, it said, he does not have the breadth of experience or policy ideas that Mrs Clinton offers.The Times noted that it has endorsed Clinton on three previous occasions -- twice when she ran for senator in New York, and in 2008 when she ran unsuccessfully for president against Barack Obama.In assessing the Republican candidates, The Times appeared to have settled on Kasich through a process of elimination.It rejected Donald Trump, who has dominated the Republican race thus far, as a populist who invents his positions as he goes along.Mr Trump has neither experience in nor interest in learning about national security, defense or global trade, it said.It dismissed Senator Ted Cruz, number two in the Republican field, as driven solely by personal ambition.Mr Cruz will say anything to win. The greater worry is that hed follow words with action, The Times said.Kasich, though a distinct underdog, is the only plausible choice for Republicans tired of the extremism and inexperience on display in this race, The Times concluded.

Londoners protest tenants rights changes

Posted:

LONDON (AFP) - Around 2,000 Londoners marched through the British capital on Saturday in protest at proposed legislation radically altering the rights of public housing tenants.Residents of the Lambeth and Southwark boroughs of inner south London marched from the Imperial War Museum to British Prime Minister David Camerons Downing Street office.They waved placards reading Housing for need, not greed, Mass building of council homes and Rent control now.The Housing and Planning Bill would see high-value public housing sold off when it becomes vacant, stop local authorities from granting permanent tenancies and set some public housing rents to local market levels, which in inner London, would see them soar.The high cost of living in London is a major issue in the British capital and will be high on the agenda in Mays mayoral elections.Official figures from November showed the average price of buying a house in London was 506,724 ($727,500, 664,600 euros), compared to 186,325 across the whole of England and Wales.Joan Twelves, 68, of one south London tenants association said the legislation could have a devastating effect.It will force people to pay market rents -- something like five times the amount they are currently paying.It isnt affordable to the working class. We will be driven out of central London and forced to live on the edges. There wont be workers in London. he said.The government says it wants to regenerate run-down estates and its housing plans are tilted towards new homes to buy rather than rent.A Department for Communities and Local Government spokesman said of the proposed new laws: The Housing Bill ensures the sale of empty high value council assets will enable receipts to be reinvested in building new homes that better meet local needs as well as supporting home ownership.

Thousands rally in Paris over extending state of emergency

Posted:

PARIS (AFP) - Thousands of people marched through Paris on Saturday to decry the proposed extension of a state of emergency imposed after the November Paris attacks.Braving driving rain and shouting slogans including state of emergency -- police state the marchers protested loudly against a measure they see as curbing human rights.Police put participation at 5,000 while organisers said some 20,000 people took part.Several other cities including Toulouse in the south held smaller-scale marches organised by unions, human rights organisations and other pressure groups.A further gripe is a government plan to strip convicted French-born terrorists of their citizenship if they have a second nationality.That proposal has already triggered the resignation of Justice Minister Christiane Taubira who stood down in protest over the plan this week after the reforms were presented to parliament.Parliament is due in the coming days to debate the state of emergency as President Francois Hollande seeks parliamentary approval to extend the current three-month measure, which expires on February 26.The Senate is to vote on the proposal on February 9, followed by a vote in the National Assembly on February 16.Concern has been growing about the state of emergency, introduced after coordinated gun and bomb attacks left 130 dead in Paris on November 13.Frances highest administrative court on Wednesday refused to lift the state of emergency.The Council of State ruled that the imminent danger justifying the state of emergency has not disappeared, given the ongoing terrorist threat and the risk of attacks.But UN human rights experts last week said the measures placed what they saw as excessive and disproportionate restrictions on key rights.Saturdays protesters demanded an end to the state of emergency and the nationality proposal, measures they say strike at our freedom in the name of hypothetical security.Marchers said they fear an open-ended state of emergency.Until when? The end of Daesh (Islamic State)? Ten years? Never? asked one woman, who gave her name as Chris, while another, Camille, said she feared that France is experiencing a permanent coup detat.Despite the popular concern, a recent poll showed 70 percent of French people back maintaining the state of emergency.

Clashes in German town targeted by anti-refugee violence

Posted:

BERLIN (AFP) - Far-right protesters clashed Saturday with rival, anti-fascist activists in a southwest German village where assailants had hurled a hand grenade Friday as anti-refugee violence in the country escalates, police said.Some 80 far-right demonstrators and 150 counter-protesters -- anti-fascist initiative and citizen movement members as well as refugees themselves -- showed up in the Black Forest town of Villingen-Schwenningen, police said.The grenade thrown over a fence Friday morning was filled with explosives but it was not immediately clear whether it was equipped with a detonator, a police spokesman in Villingen-Schwenningen, which has some 80,000 residents, said in a statement.It did not explode and no damage or injuries were reported.In an interview with German daily Die Welt published Saturday, the general secretary of Angela Merkels Christian Democrats (CDU) party Peter Tauber said the act was despicable and frightening, and classified it as attempted murder.Whomever did this is not a concerned citizen. This is a criminal, he said.In a country that has welcomed more than one million migrants in the last year, violence against asylum seekers has been on the rise.The Federal Crime Office on Thursday reported 173 attacks against refugee shelters in 2015, more than six times the number recorded during the previous year. Another 10 cases were reported in January.Sigmar Gabriel, German vice chancellor and economy minister, was quoted in the press on Saturday as saying that there is an alarming increase in acts of violence against refugees, adding we are a stable democracy.I am against the image that Germany is a country of violent far-right extremists and foreign criminals, he said.
