It is much better though. What EU country has been headed by the same person for 22 years? What EU country has its greatest ever football player flipping burgers at the other end of the world under a fake name, because he dared to not sho

I do. I hope they'll prove me wrong, but the last decade or so has been a string of political failures. Crimea, Brexit, the war in Ukraine.. etc.

I'd much rather have EU focus on the very real existential threats we're facing, instead of bullying (checks today's news) ... Ireland? Seriously, EU?

Great article, thanks for sharing. I enjoyed hearing the author's viewpoint, and his list of criteria for buying stuff can be useful with some minor adjustments. Also, the replies regarding his wife were hilarious, if a bit nosy and pr
