Lars Boje Mathiesen asserted that the rules allowed migrants from the Middle East and Africa to receive early retirement pensions without having worked previously and later obtain permanent residency and citizenship. He wrote that, according to him, 500 Syrians had been granted early retirement pensions in recent years, which resulted in costs that were borne by Danish taxpayers. Mathiesen criticized the VLAK government and the Danish People’s Party for allowing the rules to remain unchanged and questioned why Mette Frederiksen had not intervened during her seven years in power. He stated that the Citizens’ Party had proposed a motion aimed at closing what he described as a loophole in the regulations. At the same time, he reiterated his party's support for remigration, changes in demographic development, and a principle that public benefits should only go to Danish citizens. Mathiesen asked whether the other parties would acknowledge the mistake and support the proposal. #dkpol #dkmedier #dkpol #migranter #skatter (translated)

Yaqoub Ali wrote that he was supposed to participate in a debate on Radio4 about Tivoli's use of Afrah al Jabouri as a model in a Halloween advertisement. According to Ali, Tivoli had informed Radio4 that the advertisement was taken down the day before. He called the decision good news and praised Tivoli, but stated that there was still reason to criticize the choice of Afrah al Jabouri and question how Tivoli could have deemed it a good idea to use her as a model. #dkmedier #Tivoli #Debat #Halloween (translated)

Nina PB wrote that videos from demonstrations in Denmark, France, and Milan, along with coverage from foreign media, gave her a more comprehensive picture than Danish media. She said she respected editorial choices but believed there were significant gaps in Danish coverage. She criticized DR for having downplayed the concerns about students and people in yellow vests through a correspondent and referred to the possibility of eating a croissant. According to Nina PB, this occurred hours before stores were looted and fires were set in the streets, which others easily had foreseen. She wrote that she was not asking for a specific political angle but for access to factual knowledge. When she saw violent clips, she checked local news sites and YouTube and searched for information about the location and subject. She felt that the Danish narrative currently lacked information about, among other things, the extent of the violence, methods used, which stores were affected, and visible signs of political affiliation. She added that she had limited the possibility for responses in the thread to keep it free from bots and anonymous trolls. https://t.co/4i8nbWJGuy #journalistik #nyheder #verificering (translated)

Cyrus Razavi wrote that the parade, which he had spent several months organizing, had been conducted with good attendance and in a peaceful and festive atmosphere. He assessed that the day was a success and thanked both the participants and those who had worked behind the scenes. According to Razavi, the follow vehicle, which was supposed to have speakers mounted, had been sabotaged. He wrote that individuals from the far left had stolen banners and cut the wires to the sound system near the stage close to Christiansborg while the organizers were at Kongens Nytorv. Razavi stated that the sound technician had been shocked but not physically assaulted, and that he had repaired the damage before the parade arrived. Despite what he described as attempts to sabotage the event and limit the participants' right to assemble and express themselves, both the parade and the program had been carried out, he wrote. #dkpol #dkmedier #ytringsfrihed #forsamlingsfrihed #deltagerdemokrati (translated)

Niels Philip Kjeldsen wrote that clashes occurred between police and counter-demonstrators at Christiansborg Palace Square and Gammel Strand, and that the police had to intervene several times when fights broke out. He recounted B.T. reporter Emilie Jägers' description of the place as a battleground and her assessment that it was primarily anti-fascist and leftist counter-demonstrators who clashed with the police.

Lars Boje Mathiesen wrote that a woman who was about to get citizenship had asked a journalist to speak with her daughter because she, according to him, did not speak Danish very well herself.

Cyrus Razavi wrote that Afrah Al Jabouri was born and raised in Denmark, spokesperson for the Ashura procession and had connections to the Imam Ali Mosque, which he described as having documented ties to the Islamic Republic. He referred to her public sympathy for Ali Khamenei and content on TikTok and wrote that it raised questions about her national affiliation. Razavi wrote that Al Jabouri had shared a quote about her soul belonging in Karbala, even though she was born in a country with cold winters and cold hearts. He also mentioned a quote that she, according to him, attributed to Khamenei, stating that Iran was less important than Islam. Razavi asked whether Denmark was therefore not important to her either, and where her loyalty lay. #dkpol #dkmedier #dkpol #islam #AfrahAlJabouri (translated)

Claes Theilgaard wrote that he had investigated the influencer Afrah al-Jabouri, who according to him had been mentioned after her participation in the TV 2 program "Højskolen". He claimed that in a series of videos on TikTok, where she had close to 70,000 followers, she had praised the Iranian regime and the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Theilgaard wrote that al-Jabouri had said that Iran deserved respect and had praised the country’s military and attacks against Israel. He also stated that she had mourned Khamenei’s death earlier in the year and wrote: “Can’t stop crying.” In a video she had shared, Khamenei was allegedly praised for promoting Sharia law, according to Theilgaard. According to Theilgaard, al-Jabouri had also shared videos from the Imam Ali mosque in Copenhagen. He wrote that Berlingske had several times uncovered connections between the mosque and the Iranian regime. Theilgaard also stated that al-Jabouri had declined to be interviewed because she did not want to speak with individuals she considered to be Zionists. #dkpol #dkmedier #AfrahAlJabouri #Iran #TikTok (translated)

Cyrus Razavi wrote that Afrah al Jabouri had worked as a security staff member at a Danish airport, where the job, according to him, required extensive background checks and security clearance. He claimed that she had answered "YES" to the question "Are you a terrorist?" on TikTok and accompanied the answer with a bomb emoji. Razavi asked how she had been security cleared and whether PET had investigated her thoroughly enough. He wrote that her sympathies for the Islamic Republic should have raised alarm bells. #dkpol #dkmedier #sikkerhed #terrorisme #politik (translated)

Lars Boje Mathiesen wrote that the Citizens' Party had proposed to revoke the citizenship of a person of African descent, whom he described as a serial criminal. He believed the proposal was relevant because Mette Frederiksen was soon to speak with the person's father. Mathiesen asked whether the media had covered the proposal or asked the other parties whether they would support it, and what the Prime Minister thought. He also wrote that a proposal from another party, in his estimation, would have received more media coverage, and questioned whether the media were neutral. #dkpol #dkmedier #dkpol #dækning #statsborgerskab (translated)

Lars Boje Mathiesen asked whether the media had asked Mette Frederiksen if she felt a personal responsibility for the death of a Swedish man because she had granted citizenship to a man of African descent. He wrote that if TV 2 and DR were deliberately silent about the matter, it showed, in his opinion, that the press was in the pocket of the political power holders. #dkpol #dkmedier #dkpol #dkmedier #politik (translated)

He described those present as peaceful and noted that many had tears in their eyes. According to Razavi, a group with Palestinian flags stood just a few meters from the memorial ceremony, where the group made noise, shouted in Arabic, and disturbed the ceremony. He wrote that demonstrations had filled the streets for nearly three years and criticized the group for not allowing the mourners to have an evening of peace. He demanded that individuals he described as terror sympathizers be removed. #dkpol #dkmedier #Danmark #mindehøjtidelighed #terrorangreb (translated)

Lars Boje Mathiesen wrote that the Citizens' Party would propose to revoke the citizenship of a man whom he described as an African and responsible for the murder of a Swedish family father. Mathiesen believed that the man should not return to Danish society. He wrote that the man had been convicted of serious violence, rape, attempted murder, and threats, and claimed that he had abused his citizenship. Mathiesen urged the other parties to support the proposal and said that several of them had expressed outrage on social media. Mathiesen pointed out that the Social Democrats and the Liberal Party, according to him, had been in power for years without raising the penalties. He also wrote that a unanimous Parliament had granted the man citizenship, and that the Danish People's Party had voted in favor, just as Mette Frederiksen and Inger Støjberg had personally voted in favor. #dkpol #dkmedier #dkpol #danmark #statsborgerskab (translated)
