Europe is told it regulates while others build. This week I told the Nordic and Baltic ministers of culture a different story. For small countries, shared data standards, neutral intermediaries and federated infrastructure don't hold competitiveness back. They are how we compete.

Soo the next column in our EU/EFTA bingo card is how many nationalities has one got? 😂 Only have two at the moment, depending on the next French election results, there might be a third one in a few years attainable.

Yes, I know, lived and worked in multiple EU/EFTA countries. CH, UK, BG, FR & DE, but never in Sweden. And according to sources on the web the registration regime in Sweden was different after 2014, namely at the latest after one year residence registration with the Tax authorities. Hence me asking.

Russ, is it correct to assume, that by the time he came to Sweden, he ought to have registered with the tax authorities in 2018 at the least and latest?

Genuine question: why raising this issue with the Commission? As long as Sweden has implemented the WA correctly, there is nothing to discuss in Brussels. A trip to Stockholm however, might be more advisable.

A good article but it misses a crucial point: the devastation laid to the industrial landscape in the East by the Treuhand, the quango invented by Kohl to deal with the GDR enterprises. Treuhand deliberatly ignored the diff. betw. 'socialist' & 'capitalist' accounting esp. debts on the books.

Addendum: Back to the article in question, why the gentleman in September 2021 did not at first do the very simple registration process and after that applying for Swedish citizenship is not transparent.

... begin a new registration process. The time window for that process was 1. Dec 2020 until 31. Dec 2021. A prior registration did NOT automatically carry over, i.e. it was mandatory for every UK citizen to go through this process. That should have been mentioned by the Guardian.

Not quite it seems. Prior to 2014 any EU citizen residing more than 3 months in Sweden had to register with the Swedish Migration Agency. After that only a registration with the Swedish Tax office if staying longer than one year was mandatory. However after Brexit every UK citizen needed to /.

The reporting is abysmal by the Guardian, because important facts are omitted. What was his legal status before Brexit in Sweden? If he was not registered, why did he not choose the more sensible path of acquiring registration at the point in time when he choose to start the riskier citizenship app?

Well, this study looks at doctors and nurses only. In the case of EU national dentists working in the UK the impact was far greater, because the percentage of EU dentists to all registered dentists was double compared to the situation with doctors in the UK. Not getting a dentist appt.? THX Brexit!

While a lot of commentary focuses on candidates, they miss that extreme right voting runs deep in Saxony Anhalt. Its predecessor state Anhalt during the Weimar Republic was the first state governed by the NSDAP following the 1932 state election (41% of votes, in coalition with nationalist DNVP!).

Lived and worked in the UK during that time. Different experience I am afraid. It might depend where one lived and in which circles one mingled. The decision of Merkle having an impact on German discourse? Absolutely. UK? That ship had already sailed at that point.

Completely disagree. The mood changed in the UK when the British government (Tony Blair) decided not to apply a maximum 7 year break in Freedom of Movement for people when the EU enlarged eastwards. That gave racist xenophobic elements within the British society a Carte Blanche to run havoc.

Another view is that suppression of women who had knowledge about herbal remedies including ones which suppressed fertility and aided abortions, were the initial primary targets because of the population decimation induced by the pestilence & consequently increased bargaining power of the serfs.

Same applies to my home town of Ravensburg (Southern Germany). Not a lot of court documents survived, but the cases of wealthy independent women were clearly numerous. The 3 way property split of condemned witches (accuser - state - church) worked 'wonders'.

No. Because as a dual national British citizen I have no clue if I am still a British citizen or not. Due to the powers of the Home Secretary to remove my British citizenship on file. Wouldn't it be wiser to change British law to bring citizenship removal under judiciary oversight?
