“Without immigration, there will, within a number of generations, be no Europe and no United Kingdom.”
Equally true in Greece. Suffers from decline since the 90s. The only reason stopped temporarily? Greeks from x-USSR came to Greece and Albanians fled to Greece as migrants after the collapse of their economy. Without these people we would have been long dead. Migrants are the bloodline
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.
Big issues we need to understand.

Not the case for me in the uk currently.

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Instead of stating simply that this is illegal, this story walks through the entire process of turning a gifted plane into Air Force One, as if the thing readers need to know about a bank robbery is the ins and outs of how the thieves plan to launder the money.
Breaking News: President Trump plans to accept a luxury Boeing 747 from Qatar that he will use as Air Force One and will keep using after he leaves office. The plan — involving possibly the biggest foreign gift ever received by the U.S. government — raises substantial ethical issues.

Wonder when we’ll really be ready for the cost of ‘home grown’ and hopefully, ethically produced tech.
We just published a bonus podcast about how a company makes its phone in the U.S. and why it costs $2,000. "You could count the number of skilled electronics engineers on US soil, and there's probably a million in Shenzhen alone."
