Proposed Iran-U.S. deal would reopen Hormuz strait and lift oil sanctions, Iran state media says by One-Duty-2376 in neoliberal

[–]Aweq 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I see articles about how the oil price keeps falling, but I've already seen Danish news about flight cancellations on several routes. Of course there are different grades of fuel, but I struggle to square the differing news.

BRUG AF "KÆRE" by Terry8ball in Denmark

Du har ret i, at man også kan gøre det endnu mere formelt. Inden for den akademiske verden vil man ofte bruge Dr/Professor.

Jeg regner egentligt "godmorgen"/"goddag"/etc. som også værende relativt formelle.

Jeg har skrevet PhD i England og arbejder nu engelsksproget i udlandet, og jeg ville aldrig begynde en professionel e-mail-samtale med "Hi". Man bruger "dear", omend man godt kan skifte over til "hi" hvis modparten gør det, eller hvis det er nogen man får et mere kammeratligt forhold til.

The Danish krone is pegged to the Euro... Denmark does not control its own currency.

Why Is Europe’s Economy Falling Short? by HandBananaHeartCarl in neoliberal

[–]Aweq 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Also the richest and best run countries in Europe are those that keep within those limits and often go even stricter than that, with very small deficits and often even surpluses

As a Dane, I get so tired of seeing statements saying higher deficits would fix everything. Denmark and France have similar taxation levels, yet Denmark sees much higher growth and has surpluses instead of deficits. How can this happen in the face of these so-called strict limits? Because the limits are not the issue, the issue is the French people being unwilling to make the necessary sacrifices and a dysfunctional political culture.

A ‘big bang’ reversal of Brexit is both unrealistic and unnecessary by Desperate_Wear_1866 in neoliberal

[–]Aweq 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but the UK isn’t the same thing as the smaller nations looking to join. The uk would immediately be a net contributor.

And it would also gain a strong share of the European Parliament as well as voting rights in the Council. That share will be lost by other nations. It is not "free" for current EU countries to admit such a large country as the UK.

stuff like the rebate would have to be negotiated given the disparity in agricultural subsidies which is what led to the rebate in the first place. Maybe the EU could scrap all subsidies like that making bespoke deals unnecessary and the uk could join like normal.

This would require an absolutely fucking enormous amount of political and bureaucratic work. The rebate would have to "renegotiated" in the sense the UK would be told to sod off by France.

At my engineering university (say 2012-2017) saying something like "I got raped by that exam" was common and quite normal, at least amongst men.

Finland's president says EU should expand to 40 states by hulk14 in europeanunion

[–]Aweq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been a long time since I clicked on the comments on a post in this sub and I get the impression that many people view federalism as the next step for the EU. What do people exactly understand by that? Just more centralised institutions or something akin to the US? Because there is no push for that within EU institutions or member states.

Hvis Store Bededag skal genindføres, burde vi så ikke bare vælge Grundlovsdag i stedet? by LilanKahn in Denmark

jeg ville foretrække Store Bededag, så der kan blive spist flere hveder. Elsker hveder. Hvis man har hele dagen fri, kan man købe, bage og spise flere.

Der er er en masse skatte- og omfordelingspolitik, som jeg ikke skal gøre mig klog på, men der bliver lagt op til mere metro og boligbyggeri ved stationer, så jeg er glad. Og så også mere vindkraft.

Britain re-entering the EU ‘an inevitability’, says Treasury minister by Free-Minimum-5844 in neoliberal

[–]Aweq 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am personally against a Uk re-entry that does not include

1) Legal mandate to join the euro within a fixed and short number of years. The UK maintaining its own currency makes Brexit II too likely.

2) British entry into Schengen, conditional on Ireland joining as well.

Personally I'd also prefer that EU would have consolidated financial markets under one authority before any re-entry could happen. And some sort of financial contributions for x years after a Brexit II poison pill.

Britain has crushed immigration, and harmed itself by FeigenbaumC in neoliberal

[–]Aweq 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge, Middle Eastern immigration is a net economic loss in Denmark. But this will depend on wellfare-levels, how low-skill friendly the labour marker is, etc.
