Israeli city wants gender-segregated streets
Bnei Brak, a predominantly ultra-Orthodox city in Israel, plans to introduce separate pedestrian routes for men and women. But fierce criticism appears to have put the project on hold.

I despise Shabana and the likes of her so so much. Children of immigrants that would deport their own family if it means personal gain. The lowest. It's important to share this again and again as a reminder that these people have no principles, they would sell their own mother if they could.

Swedish national security advisor left behind a notebook after the NATO summit in Turkey. His predecessor ALSO left a notebook behind at a summit and was eventually fired for it (but not before our PM, his best mate tried to save his arse). Not a serious country.

It’s the 114th anniversary of the opening ceremony of the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm—the first at which poetry was a category you could win a medal for. The gold was taken by... er, Baron Pierre de Coubertin, President of the International Olympic Committee 🧵

Luckily Kemi no longer identifies as Nigerian, she'll be spared when the hooded thugs go door to door seeking out "unwanted" people. Same goes for Zia, Sajid, Priti, Suella.......for sure! lol. As much as I hate Farage these kapo traitors make my blood boil.

passports are passed on to others, nobody checks the validity or the person using the passport. I don't care if it upsets anyone, Sweden took good care of Ukrainians, they are well integrated, employed. There are far more marginalized groups of ppl in Sweden that get zero or very little benefits.

Unpopular opinion perhaps: Free public transport for Ukrainians in Stockholm should be phased out and stopped. It's ridiculous. My friend, from Ukraine, told me that people with qualified jobs making 5k€+/month are using their passports that are no longer valid to travel for free...
