Emanuel Boeminghaus warned that German gastronomy is in decline and with it, a part of German culture is being lost. Since 2019, sales nationwide have fallen by 21 percent, in Berlin even by 28 percent. McDonald's and other large chains, on the other hand, have increased by more than 13 percent. Traditional gastronomy is increasingly under pressure, while large chains are expanding; an end to this development is not in sight, Boeminghaus wrote. He spoke about this with Metin, who has worked in Berlin's gastronomy for over 40 years and is experiencing the decline firsthand. Boeminghaus referred to a new video about it on YouTube. https://t.co/HY8a92MKfh #Gastronomie #Kultur #Berlin (translated)

The author stated that the Dutch population had grown from just over 1.1 million since early 2016 to approximately 18.1 million. According to the author, around 173,000 people had died and 167,000 babies had been born in 2025, resulting in negative natural growth and the total growth coming entirely from migration. The author referred to Jan Latten, who estimated the group of Dutch origin at about 12.9 million, and wrote that this group was expected to shrink by 1 to 2 million over the coming decades. By 2050, according to the author, the Netherlands would have about 20 million inhabitants. The author argued that the changing population composition put pressure on social and cultural relations, social cohesion, the welfare state, and the housing market. It was written that rapid changes complicated integration and increased parallel societies and clashing norms and values. According to the author, politicians focused too much on symptom treatment and paid too little attention to population growth due to migration and low birth rates among the indigenous population. The author praised Latten for his expertise and warned that politics, media, and society needed to take demographic changes seriously. https://t.co/wVfulQlN6k #demografie #migratie #socialecohesie (translated)

Martin Reichardt thanked the CSU for documenting the appearance of Vice President Andrea Lindholz and Bernd Kaiser for a comment he reportedly adopted. Reichardt recalled a statement made by Left Party MP Gebel in March. She had countered him in the Bundestag by saying that the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, but he was still more sensitive. According to Reichardt, this remark was met with thunderous applause; no one was offended by the wording. Gebel had also miscalculated by 7,000 nerve endings. This week, Reichardt hinted that Gebel did not know her own sexual organ. Lindholz subsequently spoke of an invasion of privacy and misogyny, and imposed a fine on him, he wrote. Reichardt accused the Bundestag of double standards: when a left-wing politician aims below the belt, it is cheered, while the same wording from a conservative is regarded as an attack on the dignity of parliament. He described this as a whiny double standard and demanded that the parliament not measure with a double yardstick. #Doppelmoral #Klitoris #Bundestag #Doppelmoral #Bundestag #Politik (translated)
