Henrik Salander wrote that the S-leader Magdalena Andersson had first had four years without anything happening and then a month after the election on September 13, also without results. He stated that she then received a task but left it before a new speaker was elected, and afterwards got a new assignment with a deadline the following day. Salander added that she had now been granted an extension and asked what it was all about. #politik #Sverige #magdalenaandersson (translated)

RMadrid acted to indicate that Real Madrid had resolved the pitch issues at the Bernabéu after several years.

In France, students are back on the streets today. #EUChinaRelations #EuropeNews #TradePolicy

Chris Klomp wrote that he had sent Robert Moszkowicz an email with a deadline of October 5 at 1:00 PM. According to Klomp, the reason was that Moszkowicz had made his summons public by informing Fleurspolitiek, which called Klomp a conspiracy thinker and suspect. Klomp stated that he outlined in a document of more than 4,000 words, with evidence and arguments, why he believed his characterizations of Moszkowicz were defensible and fell under his right to free speech. He added that he would publish the piece on his website shortly after 1:00 PM on October 5, regardless of whether Moszkowicz responded. Klomp said he would not be intimidated or silenced and invoked the public interest and the defense of his human rights. https://t.co/oxIqMJUCsv #VrijeMeningsuiting #Persvrijheid #Reputatie (translated)

Hopelijk denken ze niet dat nachtelijke onderhandelingen stoer of heroïsch overkomen. Het komt over als een bende amateurs die één dag voor de deadline nog rap iets ineen moeten flansen. De politieke versie van een student die zondagavond zijn wiskundeboek openslaat voor een examen op maandag. En dan met wallen onder de ogen komen doen alsof dat “hard werken” is. Hou toch op. Dat is geen staatsmanschap. Dat is uw huiswerk niet gemaakt hebben en hopen dat de klas achterlijk genoeg is om onder de indruk te zijn. #politiek #onderhandelingen #staatsmanschap

Tata Steel en de overheid hebben de deadline voor de verduurzaming van de staalfabriek in IJmuiden verlengd tot 1 maart 2027, terwijl ze onderhandelen over een maatwerkafspraak waarin concrete verduurzamingsstappen en een overheidsbijdrage van maximaal 2 miljard euro worden beloofd. #TataSteel #verduurzaming #IJmuiden

Tak til Christian Bennike for at vise Muhammedtegninger i Deadline i mandags! Jeg kan have overset noget, men jeg er ikke opmærksom på, at det er sket, siden Deadline-vært Adam Holm gjorde det 11. januar 2015 - få dage efter massakren på Charlie Hebdo. Dengang var Flemming Rose gæst i studiet. To gange i løbet af udsendelsen åbnede Holm Roses bog "Tavshedens Tyranni" og fremviste siden med de tolv Muhammed-tegninger, hvilket skabte en intern konflikt i DR og et efterspil med bladtegnernes daværende formand Lars Refn. Her kan man se Benikkes fremvisning, som hans gæst, bladtegneren Roald Als, straks kommenterer. @chrbennike @AdamGoHolm @FlemmingRose6 @Elrefn #Muhammedtegninger #Deadline #Ytringsfrihed
