Are these the exploding ones?

The CAP has not been reformed successfully, you're confusing task with goal

Wow, if you think wasting 66b is a sign of good governance, you're lost pal

The CAP is controlled by the lobbyists, and backed by the big growing countries, always has been. It's got nothing to do with protecting biodiversity and all to do with profit

the second case, all those people were investigated and arrested and are in court now, further they were voted out of their positions too, again something I wish our government would do

Lol, those are the ones that got caught. Man, you are naive as hell

Why do you think there are over 25k lobbyists in Brussels? For the beer and chips?

But if the centralised management is flawed, as the EU's is because of the CAP and vetoes, it causes massive problems, and then the fixes are sub optimal, which compounds the issue

And I'm not sure why you think someone in Brussels is any less likely to be corrupt

Had to click the read more bit to get:

A Glasgow-based company has installed its first commercial "alkaline hydrolysis" unit at a Florida funeral home.

The unit by Resomation Ltd is billed as a green alternative to cremation and works by dissolving the body in heated alkaline water.

The facility has been installed at the Anderson-McQueen funeral home in St Petersburg, and will be used for the first time in the coming weeks.

Here, company founder Sandy Sullivan explains how the machine works

Yes, now they have 21 facilities. Fewer than half of Australia...

I think you've confused hydrogen usage with green hydrogen generation

I really don't see though, how the government paying me that money to do that thing that didn't need to be done before is really a benefit.

That's the economic cost for a political decision.

I don't see why people think centralising power, which is the result of ever more political union, is a benefit.

I'd like to see more decentralised government. A fediverse version if you like. Representative democracy is so last century.

What's your point? China now has one more? I don't understand what you are trying to say

Shitposting is in the eye of the beholder

The irony of your myopia, lol

That's as of 2022, why do you have newer data?

You appear to be living in the 1950's

It's a gift to the companies I work with. The problems caused by brexit, covid and climate change are opportunities.

Border problems? Customs tech is a multi billion sized market opportunity.

Food supply chain problems? Agtech opportunities

Labour problems? Automation, robotics, AI opportunities

If all you see is problems, you'll never make anything out of anything

Right, but you've seen the shitshow we get from Westminster right? What makes you think policy will be any better, if anything our government seems to consistently make worse decisions than the EU does in my view.

I voted for lexit, as did the majority of trade unions, including people like Mick Lynch, it would be absurd to expect a right wing government to deliver lexit...

The benefits of leaving the EU will take years to realise. It hasn't even got started yet.
