Nobody will want to re-use him, he's more a Wegwerfpapagei.

I hope the French word has different connotations, feared feels like the wrong word.

The rice is collateral damage.

I'd argue it be clearer between round brackets instead of behind a comma like states in the U.S.:

Paris (France) over Paris, France.

Without having a tough response ready to roll out, i think reaching a "fair deal" will be a lot harder anyway.

Nice, i subscribed. Have to see in a few editions if i'll remain but might have something interesting i'd have missed otherwise in it.

Don't hate me for saying this but this looks like a plain European city to me, aside from a few outliers. Good job NYC.

My personal opinion is similar, not because i feel resent or think Brits dont deserve a good deal, but because i think EU should always work in the interest of the EU as a whole and that is having the UK having less exceptions they had before. But i also hope the EU won't play too hard to get, and work to prevent they delay the breunion decades beyond what it would take if they agree with a part of UKs conditions.

Aside from it being built by tech bros, i actually like this. It could serve a purpose similar to public transport like car sharing (not carpooling) and rental bikes. This would be far from as efficient as regular trains or street cars, but those modes of transports need volume. As soon the population that uses the rail decreases to a point it becomes to expensive to run a train every one or two hours, often the expensive physical infrastructure remains while the service disappears. In those cases i could totally see this being a better option than heavily subsidising or totally removing trains on that section of rail. But to be honest, I can't imagine there are enough of those places on earth carry the costs to develop this tech, also because these cars are only the best fit if the abandoned line is a single track line.

Was just about to paste some text i copied from the article here when i saw your comment; it seems your thoughts are in line with how many people think. Considering the Brits do not appear to be happy about those conditions, I guess a breunion or brejoining won't be happening very soon:

Only one-fifth of respondents across the four biggest EU members, from 19% in Italy and France to 21% in Spain and 22% in Germany, felt the UK should be allowed return as if it had never left, with 58-62% saying it must be part of all main EU policy areas.

The pollster stress-tested western European attitudes by asking whether, if the UK was only willing to rejoin the EU on condition it could keep its old opt-outs, it should be allowed to. Some (33-36%) felt this would be OK, but more (41-52%) were opposed.

In the UK, while 54% of Britons supported rejoining the EU when asked the question in isolation, the figure fell to just 36% if rejoining meant giving up previous opt-outs. On those terms, 45% of Britons opposed renewed membership.

What does it even say in the first place. I know it should include either D or Donald and either T or Trump, possibly include J or whatever J stands for. The last teo letter look like ld, but the ones before look like rum, as if he just put something together like DumnldJTummmmld.

Paris is included, but not the regions south of it:
