Trump thinks immigrants will destroy Europe. The truth is the opposite.
This column is about the long arc of population change, the hybridity of European cultures, and the widely-misinterpreted results of demographic momentum.

The facts are stark: Europe must open the door to migrants, or face its own extinction | George Monbiot
These are the facts: plummeting birth rates mean that without attracting immigration, many countries are sliding towards collapse, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

I do think that although it seems unarguably that 900 fewer injuries represents success, there is a logical conundrum that has me doubting. What if they made it 10mph and prevented 3000? Or 2mph and prevented ALL road accident related injuries? How do we value what is lost?
BBC News - Road injuries drop by 900 since switch to 20mph

Typical ridiculous 'balanced' reporting. Despite clear facts to the contrary quotes from a random opponent are given most prominence

Nearly 900 fewer people injured since 20mph introduction in Wales
Figures show a 25% reduction in the number of injuries on Wales' roads in the past 18 months.

Oops! The Times has had to issue an embarrassing correction over supposedly "sluggish" EV sales 😳
❌ It said EV sales to private buyers fell 10.8% this yr
✅They actually GREW…by 62%
Yet Times articles still claim a "big fall", "collapse" & "slide" in private EV sales 🤔

This is a shameful misuse of influence but also shows poor grasp of reality and logic. Implying that Trump has one redeeming quality as he agrees with SJ is laughably twisted. Everyone else can see what he can't, that his take is Trumpian in its selfishness, neglect of humanity and morality.
He may talk rubbish but Trump has an eye for beauty, and that is a breath of fresh air | Simon Jenkins
The US president promotes classical architecture and loathes ‘ugly’ wind turbines. Keir Starmer would dismiss him as a nimby, but on this Trump has a point, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

This is Piles Copse, the largest remaining fragment of high-ground temperate rainforest on Dartmoor. It’s a tiny speck of green in a dismal, human-made desert. Prepare yourselves for a story of breath...

I am all in favour of climate action and also the right to public protest. But against extreme movements such as “Just Stop Oil”. Why? Because their destructive disruptive activism results in draconian state control law changes that ultimately damages democracy. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...
Was it the courts, the cops, or The Sun who killed Just Stop Oil?
The radical climate protest group delighted supporters and infuriated opponents in equal measure. So where are they now?
