It's fascists supporting fascists in an attempt to bring down democratic order by way of genocidal war.

Brian Spilei “As academics with decades of research experience between us we can confidently say” Pshaw.
As a statistician, I know your analyses are wrong before I even examine them.

I don’t understand why I shouldn’t get 5% of every payment Justin makes.

It’s by definition a tiny fraction: just 5%.

VILDT! Minkavlerne får 10 milliarder for meget i erstatning, viser rapport lavet af ekstern revisionsfirma for minksekretariatet. Men rapporten blev gemt i skuffen, og de tårnhøje erstatningerne fortsætter med at flyde fra skatteyderne til minkavlerne.

Og inden troldene begynder. Ja. Det er fuldt ud veldokumenteret på alle leder og kanter af myndigheder og forskningsinstitutioner at langt langt hovedparten af næringsstofbelastningen af vores fjorde kommer fra landbruget.
