Julien De Wit wrote that a colleague had posted his testimony on LinkedIn and that he found it worth sharing. The self-employed individual mentioned that he had received chemotherapy with Taxotere and Cyclophosphamide three years earlier, followed by radiotherapy. A month after his last radiation treatment, he had returned to work, although his supervising doctor thought it was too soon according to him. He had quickly reduced his replacement income of about 40 euros per day. The colleague wrote that he worked as a self-employed individual without staff through a company and had no fixed salary, paid sick leave, or vacation pay. If he was sick or took a holiday, he earned nothing. With a full schedule ahead, he was afraid of getting sick this month, he wrote. He opposed what he considered to be negative perceptions of self-employed individuals with a management company and called for respect for the risks they themselves bore. https://t.co/JNrZ60Kq3n #zelfstandigen #ondernemen #respect (translated)
Despite the high temperatures of around 20 degrees, many Dutch ice rinks have opened this week, although this raises questions about the start date of the skating season and the energy costs associated with it. #schaatsen #ijsbanen #duurzaamheid (translated)

Beach Roy wrote that the British population was pleading for a return to the EU at that time, while #Nexit was trending. He argued that a Nexit for the Netherlands as a trading nation would be even more disastrous than for the United Kingdom. According to Roy, one third of the national income comes from exports. He referred to economists from the University of Groningen, who, according to him, expected a total export decrease of approximately 45%, a 43.5% decrease in industrial exports, an 18% decrease in agricultural exports, and about a 2.4% lower national income in the event of a Nexit. He also predicted severe damage for Rotterdam and Schiphol. Furthermore, Roy wrote that converting euros to guilders would make everything more expensive. Banks and asset managers would lose the EU passport that allowed them to operate in the internal market from Amsterdam. According to him, part of those activities had already shifted to the continent after Brexit; a Nexit would reverse that trend. Roy also stated that working, studying, and living in other EU countries would become subject to permits and that the recognition of diplomas and professional qualifications would need to be re-established. He described this as only a part of the consequences and used derogatory terms for advocates of a Nexit. #Nexit #EU #Nederland (translated)

Sanno🌪 wrote that in addition to 42 municipalities that were already under supervision, 21 more were added. The author mentioned Heerenveen, Zwartewaterland, Buren, Heumen, Oude IJsselstreek, Scherpenzeel, Voorst, Drechterland, Enkhuizen, Koggenland, Stede Broec, Albrandswaard, Altena, Bernheze, Bladel, Heusden, Sint-Michielsgestel, Steenbergen, Maasgouw, Meerssen, and Weert as the new non-compliant municipalities. The author also stated that it was time to place the State of the Netherlands under supervision. #gemeenten #ondertoezicht #Nederland (translated)

Dr. Sc. Ferdinand Meeus wrote that the warning that glaciers are dying was, in his opinion, incorrect. He stated that the Aletsch Glacier, which he referred to as the largest glacier in the Alps, was retreating again, but that this had happened before and the glacier had grown again afterwards. According to Meeus, this was due to natural fluctuations and not due to CO2. #klimaat #gletsjers #natuurlijkeverandering (translated)
Madelon Vos wrote that the plans for the new box 3 system, which were announced last week, had caused unrest among politicians, savers, entrepreneurs, and investors. Although the capital gains tax was presented as a victory, she argued that small savers and investors would be the victims. Additionally, people would temporarily have to pay taxes annually on paper gains from bitcoin and precious metals, even if they had not sold anything. Vos also pointed to rising global interest rates and a greater interest rate differential between France and Germany. She wondered what that indicated about investor confidence and how much room governments still had if inflation and scarcity of raw materials further pushed up interest rates. According to her, the higher interest rates would also affect the real estate market: Dutch houses could depreciate in real terms next year. In an episode of Madelon Praat, she discussed how taxes, interest, and inflation impacted people's wealth. https://t.co/hVinv3HF4l #belasting #rente #inflatie (translated)
Dr. Sc. Ferdinand Meeus wrote that the climate editorial team of De Morgen had not understood the issue. He stated that during an ideal pre-industrial climate period, with zero CO₂ emissions, there was no ice on most glaciers. As evidence, he mentioned a spear point that was 6,000 years old, which scientists had found beneath a retreating glacier; according to Meeus, this discovery proved that there was no glacial ice there in the past. #klimaat #wetenschap #gletsjers (translated)
Sander van Dam asked if there was no ice in that place 6,000 years ago, while there was supposedly much less CO₂ emitted at that time. He called that strange. https://t.co/Q2YEOAQV8z #klimaat #CO2 #wetenschap (translated)
