1. German gov't has announced that starting in September.....when you buy a new vehicle....you will not have to visit the vehicle registration office. You will be able to submit everything via an internet portal.
A big deal? Well....German car registration used to be one of the top ten stress events that one would go through.
2. Strike action at Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich airports on Friday. Complete shutdown announced last night.
3. The Interior Minister strongly hinted yesterday....that for today's meeting with state officials and the discussion on refugee housing....don't go expecting more funds. The Finance Minister agreed....saying there's just not much funding to go around.
4. In the state of NRW, apparently some BS rumor started up on social media last night, and suddenly....a number of people (probably into the hundreds) believed an earthquake was about to occur. WELT says some left their homes and were in some chaos-thought process.
5. There was some suggestion yesterday that NATO will take on the protection of natural gas lines (under the water) in the region of Germany, Denmark, and Norway. How? It was not really explained....that some military unit would be given a 'responsibility'. It does sound like some excuse to go and buy x-number of submarines.
