grunnen til at man må kunne ha elektriske sparkesykler som kan gå i 120 km/t er fordi det kan hende man er på autobahn i tyskland og passasjeren på sparkesykkelen får hjertestans, da må man kunne komme seg raskt til sykehus uten at noen dør eller trafikken hindres det handler om sikkerhet

1. Somebody spread desinformation on social media that #Ceuta was an open gate to Europe, East Berlin 1989 style. 2. Allegedly somebody helped with bussing and transport to Ceuta. 3. Allegedly some Moroccan police went out ot the way to help migrants

– During the meeting, Putin read me a list of what Lithuania was supposed to do, and it was clear to me that it was about obedience, about surrendering. This is why Putin and Russia is so mad at Ukrainians. They didn’t surrender. They disobeyed the tsar. #SlavaUkraini

Dalia Grybauskaitė, former President of Lithuania: I first met Putin in Helsinki in 2010. For us, the gas price from Russia was a huge question. We fully depended on gas supplies from Russia. And we had been paying about 30–40% more than Germany was paying, for example.

Sustainability is the least of the worries, compared with e.g. oligarchy. Sure, some setups are actively anti-sustainable. Inefficient models on inefficient architecture in inefficient data centres powered by extremely inefficient gas turbines. But a datacentre is a low-grade thermal power plant,

The world’s richest man, at it again. Reminder: “remigration” is far right code for the forced expulsion of ethnic “undesirables” in order to “purify” the nation.

👀 Another page turner by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social "George Cottrell has always been a story. Nigel Farage’s finances have always been a story. And who funded Brexit is still a story because it’s the same story. The same dubious sources of finances." www.thenerve.news/p/nigel-fara...

We aim to make Europe the world’s first electro-powered continent. Our new plan could cut gas demand by two-thirds, halve oil use, and save €260 billion in fossil fuel imports by 2040. How? ↓🧵

My explanation of how climate change is amplifying these wildfires ended up entirely on the @npr.org cutting room floor. Instead they included an extremely misleading of the supposed role of fire suppression and human alteration (expertly debunked here: www.theclimatebrink.com/p/canadas-bo... )

I’m will be on @npr.org All Things Considered this afternoon talking a about the new @nationalacademies.org climate change/extreme weather report and the current wildfires and apocalyptic haze

Oyer: "2 days after Blanche was confirmed as deputy AG, he fired me from my position as DOJ's career pardon attorney. I declined to rubber stamp a favor for a friend of the president, and it cost me my job. Mr Blanche's office had asked me to restore the gun rights of a convicted domestic abuser..."

🧵 So Farage is preemptively attacking the Commons standards committee in what's a great example of the weaponisation of the Four Pillars of Disordered Doubt against institutional authority to avoid accountability. The sort of thing Russia did against the OPCW, or Trump does with "fake news media"


In his Daily Mail interview, Nigel Farage also claimed that the Commons standards committee, which will impose a punishment if Farage is found to have broken Commons rules, was biased against him.

He said:

There are people on that standards committee who will judge me, who have reported me for Islamophobia. It is going to be a completely subjective judgment. There’s no objectivity in this.

According to Christian Calgie, who interviewed Farage for the Mail, Reform UK sources are describing the committee as a “kangaroo court”.

Allegations about MPs breaking parliamentary rules are investigated by Daniel Greenberg, the parliamentary commissioner for standards. He has confirmed that he is investigating the £5m donation. On Tuesday Farage implied undeclared donations from George Cottrell were also being investigated, and Greenberg is also being urged to investigate claims Farage broke lobbying rules.

In his speech on Tuesday Farage implied the standards inquiry was evidence of the establishment using “foul means” to defeat him.

But this is his most explicit attack on the standards committee – and it implies that Farage now believes he will be found guilty of a serious breach of Commons rules.

It is also a move that could see him facing a harsher penalty. The committee regularly imposes harsher punishments on MPs who have not cooperated with or respected the disciplinary process.

In a case with some parallels, Boris Johnson condemned the privileges committee as a “kangaroo court” before it published its final report into him. The committee (comprised of MPs who also serve on the standards committee) said Johnson’s criticism amounted to “a further significant contempt” and this contributed to it proposing a 90-day suspension – which it was not able to enforce because Johnson resigned as an MP first.

1/ An infamous Russian 'butcher commander' accused of sending his subordinates to their deaths to cover up his own drug-dealing has been promoted to command the 114th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade. His many critics aren't impressed by this apparent favouritism. ⬇️

Data centers use more power in the US than in any other country

Last year, nearly 40% of all power demand from global data centers came from facilities based in America, per a new report.
