I don't know how much we can learn about immigration policy in other countries from a local election in Denmark that had nothing to do with immigration.

In a survey conducted by Epinion (n = 102.897) integration was the second least important topic (out of 13) for voters in this election.

Did you happen to leave your @londonreviewbookshop.co.uk purchases on the Metropolitan line yesterday?

Did one of your friends do this and send an anguished message to the group chat?

If so, Darren has just done you a very good turn. 👇
If anyone lost a bag of books from LRB Bookshop on the Metropolitan Line between Baker St- Watford, I handed it to a cleaner when the train terminated at Watford tube station. And if you have far more followers than me, please share this status. LRB bookshop is not cheap!

Hey everyone, I am looking for homogenized data on *post-electoral* surveys in Germany. We would need them for federal, EU, and ideally also state elections—but anything you can help with is very much welcome!

Anyone know of a single dataset including them for several elections? Thanks so much!
