To be clear @sinnfeinireland. You're justifying a proposed new registration process for EU citizens by saying that "this is common in most EU countries" without stating that most EU countries mandate their own citizens to register as well?

What‘s surprising about the ‘abuse in schools’ scandal is that we tolerate the abusing institution to continue to monopolise the delivery of our school syllabi and to dominate the education of our teachers. A bishop oversees Mary Immaculate College in Limerick — says it all.

Genuine question: is it ethically tenable to continue to be present on a platform that actively constructs a hate-filled, fact-depleted public sphere? I know, we all had this discussion before -- but why share a platform with the likes of Yaxley-Lennon? Or Bannon? Or Musk?

Does this explain the difference in how policies are designed to be implemented in 🇩🇰 while we in 🇮🇪 barely touch the surface of the policy/implementation nexus? In 🇩🇰, people are brought on board from the go, in 🇮🇪 they are, at best, an afterthought.

Thinking about the difference between 🇮🇪 and 🇩🇰. Similar size, the one colonised, the other colonising. The former a relatively young nation state, the other a mature one. Both in the EU. (1/2)

And note the use of flexible infrastructure to support the use of this space. It’s as if users are trusted, rather than feared (and thus in need of coercive actions).

Public space inside a public building. Another aspect of what Kopenhagen gets right — besides its fabulous cycling infrastructure.

Watched Beckett’s Endgame tonight and was struck by a prescient passage I hadn’t noticed before — written in 1957 and encapsulating our current malaise rather well. Ah, and thanks to @DruidTheatre for making it happen.

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.” It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there. Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more. This is new. This is leadership. Cities are a result of choices. HT @Khayat_Fouad

@ALeaument Democracy also means not insisting that a small majority build from a coming together of different traditions translates into the willingness to work together and to compromise.

Macron doit respecter la démocratie : il doit se soumettre ou se démettre. La démocratie, c'est aussi savoir perdre. Macron a perdu. Soit il accepte le résultat des urnes et il nomme un Premier ministre du #NFP, soit il doit partir

@kleyden7 I completely agree, Kevin. It's become a much better campus in recent years. And the blocking of cars from the underpass depicted contributes majorly towards that.
