Here are things I like. The EU. A federal EU. A platform without trolls and bots. Poesi. A bit of banter like Eurovision and football...and lots of truth and facts

The EU KIDS Act would keep children under 13 off social media, allow supervised mini accounts from 13 to under 15, and require stronger safety-by-design protections for users under 18. We need to protect underage children from alcohol tobacco etc. This is no diffrent. YES to the kids act.

Mark Carney forest metaphor today: "A single tree will come down in it. A forest will not. And that's because beneath the forest floor, the roots of an oak intertwine with those of its neighbours, exchanging nutrients, adding strength to strength, creating a resilient, self-sustaining ecosystem."

Democracy is much more than a doctrine of a self-governing humanity but in its essence. It is decency, conscience, truth, love, empathy, education, art and science because without it there is no real democracy. Our EU is a ship called democracy in an unpredictable and unfriendly ocean.
