Norway reached -32 last year: https://www.thelocal.no/201802...

If we look at somewhere like Troms we see that the AVERAGE minimum temperature is -8 in January: https://weather-and-climate.co...

In fact Oslo, in the south, is due to hit -7 on Wednesday, and it's April: https://www.worldweatheronline...

Check out Bjorn Nyland's videos on YouTube, he regularly travels through mountain regions in a variety of EVs.

Entirely Wrong. Just yesterday it reached -4 (C) at 700. Past lows routinely reach -5 (C) earlier this year. Total terms for lows recorded in history was -32.5 (C).

I seem to recall a story from just a short while ago which suggested Tidal had paid a couple artists very well indeed.

It truely is amazing how one of the most gender equal countries in the world with complete pay transparency still has just as large a difference in pay between the genders. It's almost as if men and women make different choices in life, but we all know that isn't possible is it.

Limit Police Use of Bullets

Like in Norway.

You can eat some stuff grown there. It just depends on what, and the soil where the plant was grown. Why not eat an apple? I would. It can be safe! You have to test everything though, just like Norwegian reindeer meat.

According to wikipedia, only 20% of Norway's GDP comes from the energy sector, so it's not only a win at the oil lottery. And the EU is actually quite angry about Norway's tariffs ( http://www.thelocal.no/2012092... ). Anyways, Norway proves that a "government-run" economy can be very wealthy, contrary to widespread american belief.

well said.
Unfortunately, this time Europe is more corrupted by Russia.

British are weak, as "Russians are your major investors and bought a couple of football clubs". Besides, I question their army's ability to do their trade.
German responce seemed hard, but unfortunately CDU's coalition partner, SPD are in reality russian agents. Former chancellor from that party is now employed by russian gas company. Besides, for russian-german relations it is business as usual (LetterOne is russian).
France would traditionally do anything to retreat or surrender. And communist trade unions would do anything to support rebuilding "USSR 2".
Italy is a corrupt farce that was unable to impeach a paedophile moron from the post for over a decade. They have very amicable relations with Russia.
Austria does plenty of business with Russia, they are HQ for russian company's subsidiaries in EU.
Greece, Bulgaria will remain silent, as "Russians are their brothers in orthodox faith".
Sweden lost ability to defent itself from own crowd, and with strong socialist sentiment they are unlikely to fight, in physical way, anyone.
Spain, Portugal fart in general direction of any troubles on the opposite side of continent.
Hungary seemed to act "independently" to some point, but few months ago prime minister Orban was "pacified" by Putin with major russian investment.
Czechs are trained in France to prepare quick welcome parties to any occupiers.
Poland, Romania and Lithuania are too weak to stand against Russia. They are heavily dependent on Russian petrol/gas. While they mostly understand the severity of situation, will remain not understood by the rest of EU, as "they are idiots who are always agains Russia".
Estonia, Latvia are checkmated, as they have huge (40%) Russian minority. If they speak too loud, Moscow will "hear Russians living in Tallin, requesting help"..
Finland and Slovakia will remain silent in hope, that in case of conventional military conflict Russian troops will opt to drive through other countries.
Cyprus is Russian bank.

Don't expect any Churchills :-(
