The UK and the global economy after Brexit
Brexit has reduced UK trade openness, foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, and immigration growth. New border frictions and higher transport costs pose new barriers to trade, and FDI inflows are unlikely to return to levels reached in the 1990s and 2000s.

- avoid threatening invaded countries to cut them off vital communications
- stop paying #extremists in #europeanelections
- avoid taking away the lifes of thousands of families of #federalworkers
- stay out of the #personaldata of millions of #citizens

The EU's democratic future may rest on two commissioner-designates
Next week, when the European Parliament holds hearings for commissioners-designate, it should insist that they recognise the erosion of national democracies as a profound, home-grown threat to the Union and promise to tackle it head-on with the powerful tools already at their disposal, write four professors of international law at Princeton, Georgetown, Dublin and Hertie universities.
European Commission fails to present a team on time
The European Union @eu is primarily governed by a "European Commission". The latter is a college of 27 people who jointly exercise the executive powers at the Union [confederal] level. It operates as a cabinet government, with one member ("Commissioner") per country – including Slovenia:
"Ljubljana is the only EU government yet to formally nominate a commissioner after swapping its male candidate Tomaž Vesel for a woman, Marta Kos. Kos’ nomination isn’t complete until a parliamentary committee signs off on it. That committee is chaired by a Janša ally, whose party is refusing to schedule the meeting, as things stand. […] The opposition […] wants to force the government to say the quiet part out loud: that Vesel didn’t want to resign but was forced to by Golob, who himself was pressured by von der Leyen."
