Podcast: The Did We Order This Government On Temu Edition
The Hague was in shock this week after six people died in a huge blast that police believe was an attack on a bridal wear shop. A “monster alliance” wrings concessions from the coalition parties on the education budget, but universities say the cuts will still damage the sector. Enhanced border checks come into force but experts say they will make little difference, while the Council of State pours cold water on Marjolein Faber’s asylum crackdown. Max Verstappen is ordered to mentor young drivers in Rwanda as penance for swearing at a press conference. Scientists raise the alarm about disappearing seals in the Waddensee. And Dick Schoof edges out SIfan Hassan but loses out to a Chinese web shop in the Google search league table.
