Richard Teng Explains Why Binance Chose Greece for Its EU MiCA License Binance co-CEO Richard Teng defended seeking the exchange’s European MiCA license in Greece, citing its labor force and security as key reasons for the choice.

This should never have happened.

King Misuzulu kaZwelithini's speech - and why it has foreigners in South Africa worried The Zulu king was trying to calm anti-migrant feelings but ended up using a highly derogatory phrase.

This however is a survey of people in hygiene poverty so it's hard to know what to compare to what

How The Hygiene Bank raised awareness of hygiene poverty with YouGov The Hygiene Bank partnered with YouGov to explore hygiene poverty’s impact, using data to drive awareness, media coverage, & conversations with key stakeholders.

The 2024 version of this survey, with yougov, is public. Crosstabs here ygo-assets-websites-editorial-emea.yougov.net/documents/Hy...

However, a) what kind of social survey needs to be shared in confidence like this? b) why is the BBC's programme for funding hyper local journalism doing this very personal advocacy driven non local story? c) that a quarter of Londoners have to choose between food and hygiene is just not plausible

To be clear: I don't doubt there is a ton of poverty in London, i lived there for years and until not too long ago. I still visit many times a year.

Trump says Venezuela stole U.S. oil, land and assets. Here’s the history. The government of the oil-rich nation took control of its petroleum industry in 1976, nationalizing hundreds of private businesses and foreign-owned assets.

This WaPo post is bizarre. Look at the mental gymnastics around the notion of expropriation. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

Creepy LinkedIn, creepy.

Also. Repeating my name as a means of deepening brand engagement got dropped from call centre scripts and email templates 5 years ago. Because it was creepy and annoying.

A full confession: i have a small history of complaining to the bbc. I had a serious issue with them fangirling over Greek convicted criminals. Their complaints process did not work back then. It works on predictable routes and not on others

See here's what i mean by optics. The ECU is the BBC. The BBC is disciplining the presenter for her tone. you are saying "management and ECU are separate things, the complaints process doesn't route through line management" But that's the mistake. Absolutely nobody cares about this distinction.

On the contrary their rules do not necessitate this response, it takes several layers of interpretation to get there.

I don't think this is some disciplinary matter, especially one to be played out in public. Have a word and move on.

Martine Croxall broke rules over 'pregnant people' facial expression, BBC says The BBC newsreader was reading out a news bulletin about research on groups most at risk in UK heatwaves.

The students of Saint Joseph Catholic school in Hanover apologized, saying they didnβ€˜t realize the significance of the float and that it won’t be used again in part because they now understand it is inappropriate and in part because it is running third for the Democratic Senate nomination in Maine
