Maybe having a King the Danish way is not such a bad idea.

Danish inflation figures for October 2025 were published today.
A small drop from last month, but still on the wrong side of 2%
The salaries of all employees have by Q2 2025 increased by 3,4%
In industry it's 2,9%, so the buying power has increased for every employee.

That's why free education is so important for all, both in practical skills education and academic education, to lift all through social mobility.
Countries offering free education to all are doing so much better than countries where education is a business.

No sun today here in Denmark.
Just this the whole day.

Ken Howery visited King Frederik X today as the new Ambassador to Denmark
We all know that his job is to gain control of Greenland.
When questioned by the press about Greenland, he suddenly had no more time and rushed away.
He want to listen and learn.
I'm sure we will teach him

It was judged too difficult for the president to assemble, so he wasn't given one.

Tropical storm Melissa has reached the North Atlantic.
Pumping cold polar air to the British Islands and southern European warm air to Germany and southern Scandinavia.
So our turbines are spinning merrily.

This model will be know as the before the vulgar destroyer got started.
I expect it to become a collector's favourite.
With 1,483 pieces it's way to complicated for the president to build, so no reason to give him one.

Oups. Forgot the headline

I was a student at DTH at that time.
The youth then was very active politically.
I think we were inspired by what happened in France in 1968.

Denmark has a treaty with the US since in place within the framework of NATO.
Denmark honours the agreements we have made.
We expect that the American government does the same thing.

Around the world languages developed.
With later migration like the Yamnaya people, language, farming techniques and burial traditions were spread to Europe approximately 5,000 years ago.
This was my pickups from yesterday's lectures.
Try listening in. You won't regret it.

Yesterday's lecture from Aarhus University was about the evolution of the human race in the last 300,000 years of evolution.
The progress in ancient DNA analysis has provided us of the complete genome of several of the many branches, making us able to follow the breeding between species 1/2

Each spring and fall a total of 12 lectures are transmitted.
They are wonderful communicators, so everybody can listen in to the latest research in the word of science.
Included is this fall's lectures.
In a separate thread 🧵 I'll tell a little about yesterday's lecture.

With respect to more cars on the road, we have similar problems as many other countries, but public transport is being developed and it helps a lot on commuting in the bigger cities. Bikes free on trains, more metro lines and new tram line opening the green stage yesterday. Yellow part to follow.

Climate action.
3 years ago there was 100,000 electric cars in Denmark.
In September 2025 that figure passed 500,000.
September 2025 also set a new record. 73,4% of all cars sold were electric.
The first 9 months of 2025 saw 88,425 new electric cars on our roads.
Public charging points 35,000

And the electricity distribution in the Northern Europe grid is like this.
Notice the total emission of CO2 of only 12grams per kWh.
Using coal it's 1000grams per kWh and 500 grams when using gas.

Looking at spinning wind farm out in the ocean is always a great joy, knowing that these beasts are producing cheap electricity and saving the release of greenhouse gases.
Right now our wind turbines produce 120% of our consumption.

Remembered that you asked me about the tits finding food in the insect hotels?
I caught one crime on camera today.
It's been happening a lot, but first time documented.
