They still have a 6-seat lead, and even if two or three resignations follow they'll still have a 1-seat buffer on party-line votes.
I worry about the precedent that this sets. My understanding is that the EU has been as successful as it has in large part because of the fact that many decisions like this require unanimity, and bypassing that may lead to an overall weakening of the union.
Frankly, I think the other 26 members should seriously be looking into the possibility of ejecting Hungary from the bloc. It's absolutely absurd that Orban has been able to hold the entire EU hostage time and time again, and I don't really see any other way to remedy the problem short of a full-on revolution in Hungary.
I think you're seriously overestimating the number of people who would actually benefit from that ease of use.
The Moscow Times is actually now headquartered in Amsterdam and has been banned in Russia. I wouldn't exactly consider it to have a pro-Russian bias.
I think the trouble with the conclusion you're drawing is that it enables one to make sweeping statements about Muslims on the whole while maintaining plausible deniability in claiming that they're only referring to "the bad ones." In other words, sort of an inverse "No True Scotsman" fallacy.
Furthermore, I would wager that most people you're referring to as "ex-Muslim" would still very much consider themselves to be Muslim, and even though you're explicitly not addressing them in your claims, it's not a huge leap that someone acting in worse faith would use your rationale as an excuse to generalize the entire demographic (including the so-called "ex-Muslims").
This is mine too. It's obscure enough that I rarely hear it in public, so I basically only hear it when I actually want to.
The title here isn't very good. He was previously sentenced to 13 years in BC, which was then replaced with a 6 year sentence in accordance with Dutch law.
I personally take the stance that the justice system should be rehabilitative above all else, but I honestly don't see how someone like this can be rehabilitated. No normal person would be capable of committing such an unambiguously evil act, and it's a shame he can't be put away for life.
Tommy Lee Jones says this in Men in Black, no idea if it was coined before that though.
That KDE Plasma 5 is finally usable and stable, after having decided to stop pushing the ridiculous plasmoids on the user [...] is like having an old whore finally becoming a respectable woman.
Yeah, I stopped reading here.
My company has on multiple occasions brought in applicants to interview who aren't qualified for any positions we're actively looking to fill. I'm not 100% sure why that is, but it's led to us rejecting candidates who everyone otherwise felt pretty positive about.
Their black coffee isn't great, but their espresso is good which is what makes it into the sugary drinks. I think the main draw is that it's pretty consistently decent, while with other chains like Dunkin or Wawa you're never quite sure what you're going to get but it's probably not going to be that good. I'll also add that the coffee they sell at grocery stores isn't bad (although it's far from my favorite). I think it's much worse at Starbucks itself because it inevitably ends up burnt pretty shortly after it's brewed.
As far as price, it costs $2 because that's the price that Starbucks determined maximizes profit. From what I've seen at other coffee shops though including Mom and Pop ones, that price point is pretty typical.
