An alternative title had been “Trump accepts millions in bribes”. $75mn of those from one fraudster who seem to have bought himself a “Get Out of Jail Free card” https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/business/crypto-mogul-trump-coins-civil-fraud-charges/index.html
Not disagreeing with anything OP said, but one downside with DeepL is that it is not great as a lexicon. Basically, if you want to translate one single word instead of a longer text, as can be useful for example if you run into a word you do not know in a language which you otherwise have some grasp of. However, Google is neither good at this. One site/app/company that is good at it though is the French site/app/company Reverso. Hence, if you based on this post try DeepL and notice that it does not really suit your needs, like happened to me, so is that no need to go back to Google.
Should clarify that what I meant with it making sense in the UK is that their election system results in that the party that get most seats usually get over 50%, which means that “winning” and winning often become the same thing. Except 2017, when the Tories only lacked 5 seats to have over 50%, and 2010, when the Tories and LibDem were in a rare coalition, so do you have to go all the way back to 1974 to find another election where the party that “won” did not get over 50% and 1923 to find an election where the party that “won” de facto lost. Hence, I do understand the use of that language there, as it usually is relevant who “won”.
Great news. However, am I the only one annoyed by the phrase “winning an election”, used three times in the article? I note that the author is from the UK and that phrase does make sense in their system. However, in most of Europe is it not weird or even uncommon that the party that gets the most votes and seats de facto lose the election and end up in opposition; as it’s all about getting more than 50% of the parliament. Getting the most votes and seats is nothing more than nice statistics, if you can’t get more than 50% behind you.
A more accurate text had been “FPÖ, despite getting the most seats in the parliament, are in the end in fact losers”
Thank you, I’ll read up on the issue there
Okay, thank you for clarifying, very helpful
What was concerning about Proton? Genuine question, as I today tried out Proton but haven’t settled for it yet so’d want to know if there’s a reason to move to pick something else instead.
The article is about boycotts in Sweden. Two examples are given, but only one from Sweden. The first link is Danish.
It is correct and great that people in Sweden boycott the USA, but take the details with a pinch of salt as the author seems very unfamiliar with Sweden.
