    The Commission should deliver the promised deregulation VERY QUICKLY! We don't have a second to lose. The USA is pulling further and further ahead every day. If we don't want our children begging to clean toilets in the USA, we need to fix the economy NOW.

    The 🇪🇺 Commission presents a "compass" 🧭 to boost EU's competitiveness... "It's like astrology! Let's not wait 5 more years, we'll be poor! I could do the same job in the US for double the salary and half the taxes" @ConnorAllenEU Watch #BrusselsMyLove all weekend on Euronews

    That's nice but in Brussels sometimes the homeless people living in the buildings entryway will hold the door open for you (if they're sober). Checkmate, Asia.

    The role of climate scientist and activist is incompatible. How could anyone trust your conclusions to be neutral, objective and rooted in research, if you have a clearly stated political agenda? Scientists look for the answer. Activists have the answer in their mind already.

    Well done. You got this one right - even if it took you long enough to say it. Now time for @emir_kir to resign.

    This is the reason that parties like Volt don't connect with voters and normal people. A group of people who want to build a nation state, but are so intellectually opposed to nation states that they would group Paris and Rotterdam in the same region to erase them.

    They made @Ryanair seats even smaller, I now officially don't fit for real. Is discrimination against the tall a thing?

    #Zelensky says that #Ukraine has earned #EU membership. He is absolutely right. Ukrainians have shed blood for freedom, democracy and European values - far more than the dithering profiteering governments of Berlin and Rome. Grant Ukraine membership today.

    Oil and gas executives operate within the law. The whole point of your actions is that you wish to change the law. You, however, operate outside of our laws and society. You deem our cherished democratic process to be beneath you and too bothersome to deal with.

    How can Italy, as a nation that gets food so right, get breakfast so wrong?

    They're also producing the most advanced frigate in the world and exporting it - they just sold 9 to Australia. Which might not seem like a big deal but given they weren't allowed to export arms until Shinzo Abe, being able to enter and win a market in 10 years is light speed.

    In each of these countries, the term 'conservative'and 'liberal' means something completely different. A British conservative is unrecognisable to a German or an American. Not to mention that they're hugely broad umbrella terms. Nothing of value in this graph.

    Half a decade working in the European Parliament and I'm walking around completely lost on floor 5 and a half with no clue where I am.
