A nighty night ear worm that’s been shared previously but that John McVie bass line and Stevie’s vocals are primary reasons this one has been a favorite off this album since its release in ‘79. Shoulda been a single.

So I close my eyes softly
'Til I become that part of the wind
That we all long for sometime
And to those that I love
Like a ghost through a fog
Like a charmed hour and a haunted song
And the Angel
Angel of my dreams

Listen to how European leaders humiliated an entire people in the #EU.

It was a week that brought the future of #Greece and the #Eurozone to the brink. Ten years ago, on 6 July the Greek people voted against the terms of a financial bailout which included raising taxes and slashing welfare spending.

Greece owed €323bn to various countries and banks within #Europe. Its banks were closed. A quarter of the population and half of Greece’s young people were unemployed.

The morning after the vote, Euclid Tsakalotos was brought in to replace Yanis Varoufakis as finance minister. His predecessor had accused European leaders of “terrorism” in their handling of the crisis. Parachuted in to last-ditch talks with angry European leaders, Euclid Tsakalotos describes to Josephine McDermott the make-or-break 17-hour summit in Brussels.

He reveals that when Angela Merkel, the leader of Greece’s biggest lender #Germany, said she was leaving the room because she could not accept what was on the table, Donald #Tusk, president of the European Council, actually locked the door to stop her leaving and force an agreement to be reached.

#EU: Mittlerweile haben mehr als zehn Länder innere Kontrollen eingeführt.
In der jüngsten Entwicklung kündigte der polnische Ministerpräsident Donald #Tusk vorübergehende Kontrollen an den deutschen (und litauischen) Grenzen ab dem 7. Juli an und verwies dabei auf Bedenken hinsichtlich illegaler #Migration. Tusk war von der Opposition unter Druck gesetzt worden, ähnliche Kontrollen wie #Deutschland seit letztem Herbst auf seiner Seite der Grenze durchzuführen.

Poland to impose border checks with Germany and Lithuania.

Poland will introduce temporary controls on its borders with Germany and Lithuania as of 7 July, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Tuesday.

Tusk warned Monday that his country would reimpose checks on the Polish-German border if it found that Germany was sending irregular migrants to Poland, Lithuanian media reported.

Donald #Tusk gilt als Europäer. Und der sagt, er sei mit seiner Geduld gegenüber der deutschen #Bundesregierung am Ende.

Das ist GENAU DIE Bundesregierung, die es durch ihren #Schengen -Bruch geschafft hat, dass der Europäer Tusk in #Polen neuerdings von einem rechtsnationalen Präsidenten herausgefordert wird.

Das Feindbild #Deutschland wirkt in Polen nämlich, und #Dobrindt hat das eiskalt ausgenutzt. Bei so viel Hirnriss unterstelle ich langsam echt Vorsatz!

Poland: PM Tusk's pro-EU government wins a confidence vote.

Tusk's call for a confidence vote came after right-wing nationalist Karol Nawrocki was elected president, narrowly beating the Tusk-backed candidate.

From the 460-seat parliament, 243 backed Tusk's coalition, achieving the simple majority needed for the government to survive. Another 210 lawmakers voted against Tusk's government.

Tusk gewinnt Vertrauensabstimmung: Verschnaufpause statt Aufbruch

Polens proeuropäischer Regierungschef Tusk hat die wichtige Abstimmung im Parlament klar überstanden. Der Konflikt mit dem neuen rechtskonservativen Präsidenten Nawrocki liegt aber noch vor ihm. Von Martin Adam.

#Tusk’s aim was to demonstrate that he has a stable majority in the Polish parliament despite his candidate losing the presidential election – and he’s done just that with 243 votes for him and 210 against.

#Poland holds the line !
