1. The Last Generation protest from yesterday.....around Berlin? Apparently they rented cars....drove to the site next to BER (the Berlin Airport) and glued themselves to the pavement.
The police came....viewed the situation, then cut the asphalt around their hands (glued to the pavement) then removed the protester with the pavement still attached.
The rental car company (Sixt)? They say the group (around 8) are now on a do-not-rent list....for the rest of their lives. I won't say this in all cases, but generally....all of the car rental companies share these lists, so these folks probably won't ever get a rental car ever again.
Charges? There's probably several charges for each person.
2. The RBB public TV scandal added another problem....they have to find 40-million Euro of savings over the next year or two. In simple terms....cost production of each show they make on their own....will be added up. So various productions will end, and they will have to have mostly re-runs in the end.
3. Just an awful lot of chatter going on in Germany about the World Cup in Qatar....probably more than 50-percent negative at present.
4. The operating company that runs the natural gas storage in Germany....says that it's very doubtful any shortage occurs this winter. A warmer fall than usual....plays into this.
