This week the 200 members of the Berlin police force sent to Hamburg to help with G20 were sent home in disgrace after a wild sex party. Germany also joined the trend to decadence of the Western world by affirming gay marriage and adoption. So one might be forgiven for thinking that its moral authority was somewhat suspect right now.
However Germany is hosting the G20 conference in its second major city - Hamburg next week. Merkel appears willing to hold Trumps views expressed in Paris on Climate change to account. At the same time she plans to keep a tight hold on Erdogans plans for self aggrandizing rallies for his Turkish supporters living in the country.
The agenda of G20 seems as anti-Trump as it is possible to be and slogans like "planet Earth First" as opposed to "America First" are being bandied around.
Apparently there are all sorts of Leftist threats to this conference. There have been incidents of damaged cars and disruptions on railway tracks already. The Leftists have planed marches like "Welcome to Hell" that may well be violent. They seem to want to express a dissatisfaction with the fact that these big conferences of the powerful take place at all and also the view that they do nothing to actually resolve global issues like those of Climate Change, Migration and Poverty. Of course the German government will by contrast be looking for some genuine achievements as a result of the conference.
Various other Terrorists groups are probably also looking to kill people in G20 including the PKK, Daesh and various Leftist groups.
Anyway it will be an interesting event with Putin, Erdogan, Trump and May (BREXIT) on the guest lists as well as the King of Saudia Arabia.
What do you think about this years G20?
