WE DON'T NEED PETROLEUM-BASED PLASTICS ANYMORE! "The [bamboo plastic] outperforms most commercial plastics and bioplastics in mechanical and thermo-mechanical metrics while maintaining full biodegradability in soil within 50 days and closed-loop recyclability with 90% retained strength."

Dit is fascinerend; veel draagvlak voor oorlogsvluchtelingen, vrij weinig voor arbeidsmigranten van buiten de EU (expats?). Waarom zou de VVD toch zo graag over asielzoekers praten?

Goh! We hebben geen asielcrisis, maar een politieke crisis, waarin racisme en zondebokdenken bewust worden ingezet om de aandacht af te leiden van de werkelijke problemen in het land. Groepen worden tegen elkaar uitgespeeld, en nog altijd trappen te veel mensen (en talkshowredacties) erin.

Hello friends. Christian ethicist here, with a little note from Irish history: Once they start classifying some people as decent, you have to ask who is indecent.
An Irish Times op-ed by a former Minister for Justice who served as the muscle for the neoliberal party that revolutionised Irish society from the late 1980s. He suggests we should accept his posh xenophobia instead of trashy "populist" versions.

Meer dan 7000(!) kinderen verblijven in sporthallen en andere ongeschikte locaties. Ze moeten keer op keer verhuizen en krijgen vaak langere tijd geen onderwijs. Terwijl rechtse partijen elkaar overtoepen in het debat, zijn kinderen slachtoffer van politiek wanbeleid. www.trouw.nl/politiek/dui...
