As part of the grand plan of the traffic light coalition for care, there should be, among other things, a renewed tax-free care bonus for care workers of up to € 3,000. Instead of implementing the right goals, such as above all higher wages or the equalisation of sick and long-term care, the complexity of how to implement this bonus has been discussed in the past months. As Green MP Janosch Dahmen put it, "What we want to avoid at all costs is that individuals who would have absolutely deserved the money end up not getting any money because we didn't do the law well in a hurry." So the draft law, which was actually planned for December, was postponed until it was presented by Mr Lauterbach at the end of March. The result for most carers is, surprise surprise, a joke that is intended to do one thing above all: divide the working class in the health system.

Whether analog or digital, one could hardly escape the advertising offensive for the musical "Shen Yun" in recent weeks. In the promotional videos, group dance scenes are shown - women in silk robes and historical soldiers dancing ballet.

During the week, a street agitation against the war, the rearmament and the massively rising prices took place in the working class district of Lehe in Bremerhaven. The leaflet of the Red Women's Committee Bremen was distributed in German, Bulgarian and Arabic. The teachers took the leaflet very well and supported the demands for free local transport, an abolition of VAT or a basic income for everyone, as well as an end to the war in Ukraine. We document here some pictures of the action that were sent to us.

On Wednesday 30 March, the Red Women's Committee Bremen organised an lecture on the current situation in Wohlers Eichen. Wohlers Eichen is a housing complex with about 250 flats in the working class district of Oslebshausen in Bremen. The block has been under redevelopment for four years now and is one big construction site. There is rubble everywhere, cables and pipes are exposed, the basement rooms have no doors - the list of problems for the residents is long. Vonovia has already raised the rent twice since 2018, because they know well that the people in Wohlers Eichen don't have enough money to move away and are taking advantage of this situation without any hesitation. On top of that, the utility bills list a cleaning service that doesn't even exist, at least no one has ever seen it. The residents still have to pay for cleaning, even though they have been doing it themselves for years..

We publish an unofficial Bulgarian translation of the leaflet of the Red Women's Committee Bremen, which was sent to us.

When the media reports about the war in Ukraine, they almost always talk about crimes and atrocities committed by Russian imperialism. Regardless of whether there are specific incidents that are explained or whether there is just general talk about Russia's "war of extermination", the direction of the reporting is clear. The crimes committed by the Ukrainian military, however, are simply swept under the rug without further ado. Of course, they want to maintain the image of the "hero president".
