    Het voorkomen van uitbuiting van arbeidsmigranten is noodzakelijk op zichzelf, maar verbetert ook de onderhandelingspositie van Nederlandse werknemers. Go #FNV #SteunDeStakers

    Now that I am a middle-aged rather than young urban professional, does that mean that I am a #muppy ?

    The mass protest of 25000 people has failed to convince the cabinet to reverse the disastrous cuts to higher education in the #Netherlands.

    From the perspective of plants we are all rich and in the long run they will eat us all.

    This little plant, identified as Equisetum arvense by a colleague, appears to have grown right through one of the metal posts of the bridge of Amsterdam University College (#AUC #UvA #VU).
