International scientific conferences would have to be held outside the US. Many scientists will have criticised this US administration's rogue gutting of science & research, and obvs have the right to do so

Etats-Unis : un chercheur français refoulé pour avoir exprimé « une opinion personnelle sur la politique menée par l’administration Trump »

When Laura K insists rejoining the EU wouldn't bring growth for the UK as EU countries on average don't grow much atm, it is (deliberately?) misleading.
