I got news for all design lovers, Europe enthusiasts, and geography and nature nerds:
The @ecb announced the finalists of a years long design contest on the future look of the euro currency. And the coolest part is: Everyone can vote on which design they like most! ⬇️

People mock the EU as “bureaucracy”.
But that bureaucracy turned a continent of borders, currencies and wars into a space where 450 million people can travel, pay, call, study and work almost as if it were domestic.
That is not boring.
That is civilization becoming usable.

🚨 New piece out 🚨- Available in 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 🇮🇹
Europe has €12 trillion in savings sitting in bank accounts.
Meanwhile, €300 billion leaves the continent every year, financing foreign tech, foreign growth, foreign power.
The money exists, the problem is the walls between 27 financial systems that were never really torn down.

Iceland to Fast-Track EU accession referendum to August, instead of the originally planned 2027 vote.
The official date of the referendum is expected within a few weeks. Iceland could become the 28th member of the European Union, and the first to join after Brexit.
The UK decided to leave the EU's @EUErasmusPlus student exchange scheme because Brits’ poor foreign language skills made membership too expensive to justify, a senior British official has revealed. 😳 #Erasmus
