The latest data shows that 58% of COVID-19 deaths in August 2022 were from people who were vaccinated or boosted. Based on past figures and the current trends, we can reasonably estimate that the number of vaccinated/boosted COVID-19 deaths will only rise. (In September 2021, the vaccinated accounted for 23% of COVID-19 deaths; in January/February 2022, the vaccinated were 42%.) This is what happens when you rush ineffective and dangerous vaccines. And there is a good explanation for that: the share of vaccinated people. - 80% of population is vaccinated, 58% of deaths, ratio 0.725 - 20% not vaccinated, 42% of deaths, ratio 2.1 So the death ratio is 3 times lower for vaccinated people. Capicce? Not to mention that people with comorbidities and old people, which are most at risk, are usually vaccinated.

So what? Are you just assessing the validity of a study by face value? There is no flaw in their methodology. They also did not invent the data. They used the YouGov poll data.

Right. There have been some cases of misused allowances. However, it seems they have made investigations and recovered these funds. ???? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/may/03/eu-recovers-200000-from-ukip-meps-accused-of-misusing-funds -
Well, it seems It's getting worse.... https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/north-east-set-take-hardest-24289986

Ok. However, they voted Brexit because they've been told it would change this situation.

Lol! Since when is being a Finn or German University professor an indicator of scientific bias? Please explain us how their methodology is biased! They also did not invent the data they used in their analysis.

The analysis by region is quite interesting. "London’s globally connected economy masked a wider English malaise. While the capital recorded 2.3 percent growth, only two of England’s eight other regions eked out any gains. The northeast, including Newcastle and Sunderland, fared worst, with a 1.2 percent slump." I guess It's not what they were expecting from Brexit when they voted against the cosmopolitan elite.....

The link is in the post to which I replied. Quite interesting.

Trump Organization found guilty on multiple counts of criminal tax fraud

You can post it over and over, it remains a lame false equivalence. -
BTW, there is an interesting analysis showing the role of age and voter replacement. Support for Brexit has declined by around 1/3, and around 1/3 of it is due to voter replacement.

It"s not like a Brexiteer government could have been suspected of corruption, conflict of interest or other breach to ethical rules! (Sarcasm alert) -
Trump calls for the termination of the Constitution in Truth Social post

On top of it, the moron did not even know how to write it and called it "Marshall Law". ???? -
Come on! Who would trust anything coming from Giuliani? https://www.npr.org/2020/09/11/911957914/giuliani-distances-himself-from-ukrainian-sanctioned-by-u-s-as-russian-agent When people, such as Trump and allies like Giuliani, have a record of lying and diffusing Russian disinformation, It's not surprising that no one wants to believe them!

There was already an EU FTA with Singapore implemented in 2019, and the EU has since also made an agreement with NZ. So the only deal not currently covered by equivalent EU deals is Australia (for now, It's in the pipe too).

*Deleted post edited out* It is not uncommon for Universities to have a few "transversal" courses, usually optional, in order to allow students to explore other topics than the core ones, or as freshman seminar. On top of it, the content is far from being stupid, ex Freshman seminar looks at clothing as a social force https://pr.princeton.edu/pwb/01/1112/3a.shtml A confirmed lame false equivalence.... -

Lame false equivalency. That was not the reason for the lawsuit. Additionally, the Trump "University" was not accredited as a University, and its programs were also not accredited. -
That's great for Australia, sure! What about UK? "The Government’s Impact Assessment estimates that the long-run effect of the agreement will be to increase UK GDP by 0.08% or £2.3 billion a year by 2035" ???? https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9484/

You already had access to the world as the EU is the economic entity with the largest number and scope of trade deal. Nearly all UK trade deals are continuation deals of EU deals, except Australia (which weights peanuts). Also, if I remember well, excluding energy for obvious reasons, UK trade with other countries also decreased and did not compensate for the loss of trade with the EU.
