The BBC Scotland commentary for Kenny McLean’s halfway line goal is glorious. Stuff of dreams. 🔥

Congratulations #Scotland, see you at the World Cup.

Durf dit bijna niet te zeggen, en zal er wel weer een hoop gezeik mee krijgen, maar ik vind dit dus wel een fijne column van @hogeling.bsky.social. www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...
Opinie | Angela de Jong durft het bijna niet te zeggen, maar ze vindt precies wat de meeste mensen vinden
Column: Thomas Hogeling beschouwt wekelijks de publieke opinie. Wat wordt er gezegd en vooral niet gezegd? Deze week: de onnodige interessantdoenerij van Angela de Jong.

Visualized here. Hot tip for journalists: the real question isn’t why Wilders lost, but why the far right has consolidated — despite Wilders's ineffectiveness in government.

Deze verkiezingsuitslag is een soort Twente-Ajax en Heitinga: Het houdt Dilan nog wat langer bij ons ten faveure van de concurrentie.

Crazy exit poll in the Netherlands. D66 almost certainly the biggest party. PVV the big loser but other far right wins bit back (FvD & JA21).

Terrible night for the Dutch left and particularly GL/PvdA and Frans Timmermans.
