De Kamer steunt ons verzoek om snel een debat te voeren met Wiersma over het verbod op vreselijke stroomstootwapens.
Wiersma probeert het verbod alweer te saboteren door op het laatste moment niet te tekenen. Dát laten we niet gebeuren!
Ze moet het verbod nú tekenen zodat het 1 januari ingaat.

PFAS exposure has been shown to decrease fertility; increase high blood pressure during pregnancy, increase the rate of prostate, kidney, and testicular cancers; increase cholesterol levels; disrupt hormones; reduce immune response; and cause developmental effects or delays in children. Fun times!
"The agency also announced plans to relax a rule requiring companies to report all products containing PFAS and has proposed weakening drinking water standards for the chemicals."
The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food. The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

The 🇪🇺high court ruled today EU countries must recognise the same-sex marriages conducted by other member states in their own national law.
There are many questions about the ruling, which could mean that people living in Eastern EU simply need to have a ceremony in the West to be married at home.

[I apologise in advance]. Fifteen years of prime ministerial travel ruined me for the real world. Planes held for you if there was traffic on the M25. No safety rules. When I flew on a real plane after a couple of years, I caused an incident because I'd forgotten you can't stand up on landing.
The one time I got to travel on a Prime Ministerial plane, the thing that sticks in my mind is that it turns out to be entirely OK to stand around chatting over a glass of champagne *while taxying to the runway*, so long as you sit down for the actual take-off. Any safety announcement? Forget it.
