Current estimates. Let’s see what coalition talks will bring, but it’s clear a Merz government will try to emulate AfD on immigration & deregulate an already crumbling welfare state. “Anti-bureaucracy” has won

2025 marks 200 years since Henri de Saint-Simon's death. Saint-Simon was an eccentric, fascinating political theorist who influenced utilitarians, liberals, feminists, and socialists in c19 France, Britain, and beyond. He also paved the way for modern technocratic internationalism. #HistIR 1/3
