@simongerman600 It’s because they don’t yse the word “floor” in Europe. I don’t think they have an equivalent word for it in english but it means rougly “upstairs”.

@simongerman600 I'm intrigued by the countries with both systems.
Does one have to take the stairs/lift/escalator to go from the first floor to the first floor?

@simongerman600 Way too many.
Less permanent migration.

"Australia is ageing, regardless of what we do with migration. Migration cannot stop ageing, it can only slow it down"
So we can afford to get it wrong?

Australia needs migration. It also needs a migration system worth defending. That's why we urgently need a migration reform.
In my latest column, I argue for net overseas migration of around 200,000 a year, with flexibility as circumstances change. But who arrives, and whether

Whenever a map like this shows the world from an uncommon angle, I have to reorient myself. Super helpful way to view the world differently. Source: https://t.co/U8HZlOmaXd https://t.co/kzquA6xUf1

To the surprise of absolutely nobody, the construction of manufacturing facilities in the US has been falling rapidly since Trump's randomised tariffs. Capital likes certainty and the US has a whole lot of uncertainty on the menu. https://t.co/bmWW3zKmES

This map of US Interstate exits doubles as a population density map. Exits cluster tightly across the urbanised eastern half and around major cities. Head into the sparsely populated Great Plains, deserts and Mountain West, and the distance to the next exit grows dramatically. ht
