We have the winter duvet on and I'm with you on it not being cold enough for it. I'm the same when it comes to sweating.

The issue for is that in NL, society views the technical route as equally valuable to the University route. Both career paths are equally valid. Over here we've been telling kids for decades that if they don't have a degree they might as well be on the scrap heap.

Everything I know about Dutch people is that they are brilliant at solving problems and always have been. I have no doubt that given 10 years you'll have this all working beautifully.

Farage is failing at PR 101 which is correct anything that's wrong and aplogise for the rest. Anything else gives the media spin after spin of the story, as we heard this morning.
