The Royal Mail was privatized not too long ago (2013-2015) and is now a private entity listed on the London Stock Exchange. While it has a bunch of legal obligations it cannot escape, it can however have it's operating budget cut down to the bone to essentially force the government to bail it out.

That would unironically probably make me vote for Mette Frederiksen / the SuccDems in the next election.
Probably. But Meatball also actually tried his hardest to win, whereas Bloomberg was a billionaire who did it for a vanity project.
I thought he quit shortly after Super Tuesday, since he wasn't on the ballot in any of the early states, and I think he only got the most votes on American Samoa, or some other small colonial outpost. Might have been Guam actually.
Nah, Trump being NATO leader would have just shifted the burden more towards Europe than it already was. Making useless grandstanding arguments against Donald Trump was like, every EU leaders favorite action during his presidency.
I do whenever my annoying coworker begins complaining about "the woke", just as my way of fucking with him.
Whenever I occassaionally try to remove some of the brainworms of the people around me, whenver they talk about "stalin and hitler being the same", i mention the fact that if Stalin had been as brutal/genocidal as Hitler had, there would have been no Germans left in any of the Soviet occupied territories. Nazi Germany killed more than 20 million civillians, and if Stalin had actually sought revenge there would not have been anything left of Germany east of the occupation line.
My dreamjob is now to become the fucking "defense correspondant" for Danish Government Media. That motherfucker has been wrong about EVERYTHING and somehow I'm still supposed to believe that he knows what he is talking about, as if he shouldn't have been thrown out on the street the milli-second it became clear to him that the Storm Shadow missiles, the HIMARS systems, the F-16s, the Leopards and every other fucking WunderWaffen weren't going to cause the Russian state to collapse like the Soviet Union in the 90s.
I always just thought that "expat" meant a person dispatched by a company or organization to do work in another country and with an expectation that the worker in question moves back to their country of origin when their contract is over. Whereas an immigrant tends to be a person who moves permanently / with an idea to settle in another country. Though i will agree with the other commenters here that my definition of "expat" is essentially a whites-only word for "migrant worker".
The CIA (and Mossad and other intelligence agencies with a long history of wetwork) are not dangerous because they are puppet-masters secretly controlling everything, but because they are allowed to do whatever they want and with almost an infinite budget. I think in general people on the left tend to overestimate the intelligence community's skillset, which leads to them making the wrong conclusions. Obviously I'm not saying that these freaks aren't extremely dangerous, but they aren't omnipotent.
Heavily armed (for a civilian population not involved in a civil war), incredibly stupid and extremely angry about their collapsing standards of living.
Wanna know something even dumber? Supposedly a large reason for the Royal Mail being in the shitter, is the fact that they can't really negotiate rates with the private companies they deliver parcels / packages for. So noted smol-bean Amazon Inc. gets to have all their shit in the UK delivered for litteral pennies.
