The topic of the day: May shakes hands with Corbyn in the Brexit dispute

A first idea for the headline of this newsletter was "The U-turn". Because that is quite what Theresa May has just completed in the Brexit dispute: Suddenly she wants to speak with opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn about a possible compromise, the Labor chief accepted the offer. However, there have already been so many changes of direction in the Brexit-Schlingerkurs course that it is no longer possible to speak of one turnaround : a clear course has long since become unrecognizable.

So the question is as usual: how to proceed?

My colleague Kevin Hagen explains what government and labor each want, what a compromise might look like - and how it goes on, both sides should not agree. Either way, patience is needed in the Brexit Theater. However, this patience seems to be losing British service providers. The mood in the important industry has deteriorated significantly. And the EU Commission warns again of the consequences of a hard Brexit.

Meanwhile, excitement was caused by a video that appeared on the internet. On it were British soldiers shooting at a picture of Labor leader Corbyn. The Ministry of Defense is investigating the incident. These and other developments can be found in our news blog.

What is discussed emotionally in Germany is already law in twelve other EU countries: the obligation to vaccinate. However, how many different vaccinations have to be done differs greatly between nations. In Latvia, for example, there are 14, in Belgium only one. My colleague Irene Berres analyzes the situation in the EU and describes how well the compulsory vaccination in other countries works. In Germany, the role of the Greens is particularly interesting in the debate. My colleague Valerie Höhne explains why.
