@harmbeertema @MinOCW @RHDijkgraaf @D66 Ieder zijn ding Harm maar ik had hem geweigerd. 45 jaar gewerkt en voor mijn afscheid al kenbaar gemaakt dat een lintje aan mij geen goed idee zou zijn.
@harmbeertema @MinOCW @RHDijkgraaf @D66 Ik feliciteer u met uw lintje maar sinds bijvoorbeeld Paul de Leeuw en Albert Verlinde zo'n dingetje kregen is de waarde natuurlijk minder dan het stukje stof.

Op deze dag in 1985 pleegde een groep van 200 extreemlinkse krakers een aanslag op Hans Janmaat, voorzitter van de Centrumdemocraten, één van de eerste partijen met kritiek op de massale immigratie.
Bij de aanslag werd een hotel met vuurbommen in as gelegd. De vrouw van Janmaat
@jongeren_fvd De man was een visionair. Ik wist dat hij het bij het juiste eind had , maar ik wist ook dat ik mijn mond moest houden daarover want daar zou je zeker voor afgerekend worden (lage rapportcijfers van d66 leraren op school bijvoorbeeld).
Norway is edging towards a new EU membership bid, as one of Europe’s richest countries ponders how to survive in the world of Donald Trump.
Norway wants "a say at the table, rather than the current situation of adopting most EU rules without any input"
@SamuelEPLindsay @SkyNewsAust If it's a reciprocal exchange of equivalent sums of money, why bother?
And why wouldn't Australia then simply be made whole by cutting off it's own money purportedly being sent to the US?
Why does this constitute a national emergency in Australia?
@LawSelfDefense @SkyNewsAust Although I hear your concerns, Australia bought heavily into the F35 fighters and more recently signed up a billion dollars Submarine deal with the US. I suspect there is a bit of tit for tat going on here.
@LawSelfDefense @SkyNewsAust $500m of Australian taxpayer dollars to the Clinton Foundation a few years ago courtesy of our corrupt Prime Minister Julia (aka JULIAR) Gillard, who later got a cushy job with the foundation as reward. The current PM is just as bad. They’re all the same.
@SkyNewsAust I’m an American taxpayer and want ZERO of my tax $’s going to Australian universities. In fact, I want to have Australia pay this $ back to the U.S. treasury. We’re done subsidizing the freeloaders of the world. Pay your own bills.
@SkyNewsAust Why should America be funding Australia's universities?
Trump is putting America first, and that what he was elected to do.
It's a pity Australia doesn't have a leader who is actually willing to put Australia nd its people first.
@SkyNewsAust I’m an American scientist in a land grant university that serves rural heartland students who work the family ranch to pay for their school. I don’t want research dollars going to Aus universities having to compete with the entire world. Does Aus send America research dollars?
@alpha4th @heimbergecon Kind of crazy: The US outsources all the manufacturing into other countries, creating this trade imbalance for itself but apparently other countries should be responsible for it?
Where is your famous American spirit?
@brisavoine @heimbergecon Jeezuz, no. The Eurozone and the EU are essentially two things. You CAN (and several countries have) opted out.
It's actually reversed to what you said. Just because you are in the EU doesn't mean you qualify for the Eurozone (yet)
@brisavoine @heimbergecon Not true. This is not an issue. If Norway insists, they might ask for an opt-out - such as Denmark - and there is always this possibility because each new membership includes a modification of the EUTreaty and then the possibility to introduce an exemption. Not popular amont thé
@heimbergecon Correcting your little headline there. “Norwegian elites want to abolish Norwegian sovereignty to join their friends in Brussels”
The Norwegian people do not want a “seat at the table” with 5 million people we realize we’d be totally ignored in that situation. What we want is
When we organize — including at the ballot box — we have the power to make a difference in our communities.

Nederland heeft continentaal vier buren: Nedersaksen, Noordrijn-Westfalen, Wallonië en Vlaanderen. Nu houdt de ministerpresident van dat eerste gebied, Stephan Weil, er na twaalf jaar mee op.

NATO’s Article 5 was invoked only once to support the US after 9/11, thereby disproving claims that Europe is a “free rider,” former Deputy Secretary General of NATO Alessandro Minuto-Rizzo says.
Big shift for Germany: For the first time since WWII, Berlin is permanently stationing troops abroad — launching a 5,000-strong armored brigade in Lithuania to defend NATO's eastern flank.
