Bojan Požar published a message from an anonymous group of employees at UKC Ljubljana, which pointed out alleged psychological abuse and bullying at the Neurology Clinic, as well as threats to patient safety. Employees claimed that internal procedures following reports of bullying usually did not find violations, although a court is said to have confirmed with a final ruling that bullying was perpetrated by a person who later became the head of the clinical department. UKC Ljubljana is supposed to have paid compensation to the former employee from public funds. The group also mentioned alleged irregularities in evaluating work performance and assigning paid training and covering study costs. They claimed that some employees were treated more favorably than others in rewards and training. The most serious warning concerned the death of a patient. According to the employees, the patient was neither connected to a monitor nor given enhanced supervision, although she would have needed it given her condition. They noted that the incident occurred about two months prior, and management allegedly did not report it as an internal deviation or a warning dangerous event. A safety meeting was said to have been convened only in the week the message was published, after the employee reported the incident anonymously. Employees also claimed that access to information at the clinic is limited and called for action from the new management of UKC Ljubljana. #Zdravstvo #Mobing #VarnostPacientov (translated)

Magda wrote that Nawrocki had deemed the new law unnecessary the day before because Polish services already had the tools to block such content. The author accused him of not telling the truth: in her opinion, the services currently do not have a general authority to order the immediate blocking of recordings of violent crimes, such as a school attack being streamed live. Magda noted that special powers pertain to terrorist content, but not every violent attack is terrorism. In her view, this gap is to be filled by the new law, and presenting existing tools as equivalent to those that the law will introduce is false. #polityka #bezpieczeństwo #internet (translated)

Jacek Fogiel wrote that Minister Kierwiński informed about providing protection to two judges of the Constitutional Tribunal by the SOP. According to Fogiel, their names were not disclosed, and the judges requested protection after receiving threats and disturbances outside the building. Fogiel added that Święczkowski described the protection of Maciej Berek and two other individuals, whom he did not recognize as judges, as a coup attempt. The author stated that Święczkowski also described the police dispersal of the blockade of the Tribunal and the swearing-in of a judge elected by the Sejm, which was to be conducted before the president, who — according to Fogiel — had refused to accept it for months. Fogiel accused Święczkowski of preventing these individuals from working, and he called actions contrary to his position a coup attempt. He believed that in this way, Święczkowski was defending his own position rather than the Tribunal. #TrybunałKonstytucyjny #Ochrona #Polityka (translated)

Such a development will certainly significantly relax the overall relations and internal dialogue, which somewhat restores the mutual trust that has been visibly damaged over the last decade. The PRESIDENT of the HDZ of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dragan Čović, stated after the general elections in Bosnia and Herzegovina that it is necessary to improve the relations between Croats and Bosniaks in order to avoid new political blockades. #izbori #BiH #DraganČović (translated)

Polona Rifelj asked why journalists do not ask specific individuals for their payroll and the amount of taxes paid in response to claims that foreigners in Slovenia pay taxes. If she is the owner or director of a company, they would also be interested in its operations, the taxes paid on profits, and any potential blockades, executions, or criminal charges. They should also ask her if she receives child benefits and in what amount, whether she pays for kindergarten, whether she lives in a non-profit apartment and under what conditions, and what kind of car she drives based on reported income, she noted. According to her, the answers would show whether she respects the Slovenian legal order, fulfills tax obligations, and under what conditions she benefits from a system that has been funded by taxpayers for decades. They should also show whether she deserves the right to vote, she added. #Slovenija #Davki #Novinarstvo (translated)

"Some secondary schools in Paris are quite well-equipped and don't have much to complain about. But other schools in the suburbs, and even right in Paris, are completely dilapidated and absolutely unsuitable for students," describes fifteen-year-old Natacha the reason for her presence at the blockade to Seznam Zprávy. #studentsképrotesty #francouzskáskola #generaceZ (translated)
