Ekstra Bladet: CPR Chaos

The outrage has been palpable since it emerged that the CPR information of 8.8 million Danes has been leaked. Apparently, we are just as bad at protecting digital security as we are at shooting down drones. Trust in the system, the authorities, and those in power has suffered a severe blow.

Information: An unbearable situation in Gaza

A year after the conclusion of a ceasefire, fewer people are being killed, but the strip of land lies in ruins, and millions are crammed together under horrible conditions.

Berlingske: Statistics Denmark fails its own purpose

Statistics on the third generation of immigrants in Denmark exist, but one has to pay to access the figures. That is not how it should be. It requires an informed public debate to solve the problems.

Kristeligt Dagblad: Don’t believe the narrative of a dying Venstre

Democracy would be poorer without Venstre. Fortunately, there are a number of circumstances that, in the midst of the downturn, should give reason for a little faith in the future for chairman Troels Lund Poulsen.

Politiken: The Wise Man Doubts

The poet, translator, and classicist Anne Carson, who on Thursday was awarded the most well-timed Nobel Prize in Literature in living memory, is the diametrical opposite of a chatbot that claims to have eaten the world’s total knowledge. Carson is the poet we need right now.

Jyllands-Posten: Costner’s land battle mirrors Funen reality

Danish farmland is becoming increasingly expensive, as the state, investors, and energy companies are pressing in at the field boundary. The banks have one particular reason not to get carried away: They have experienced it before.

JydskeVestkysten: Killing must cost far more

Everyone is furious that Nkumba Tshiembe only received one year in prison for killing a Swedish family man. That is natural, but we must judge according to the law and not our rage. Fortunately, we can change the law.

Jyllands-Posten: Immigration policy can still decide elections

Jyllands-Posten has revealed that the state does not even always know how a citizenship has been granted. Suddenly, some, even criminal people, are registered as Danish citizens. It is a scandal. Fortunately, it now appears that a so-called screening process will be introduced.

Information: Listen to the students behind the barricades

France’s young school activists deserve better than having their legitimate protests suffocated in tear gas, burning barricades, and malicious campaigns from the right. A school crisis is not solved by the police. It is solved by listening to the young people and giving them concrete answers.

Politiken: Bullies on the rise

Flávio Bolsonaro’s election victory in Brazil is a grim sign. It underlines the crisis of liberal democracies. In several countries, the far right manages to seize power. It has happened in South America, the USA, and Europe. It is urgent that liberal forces rediscover their political visions and voter appeal.

Ekstra Bladet: The Velvet Glove

Nkumba Ludovic Tshiembe struck with an iron fist, so a young family father died. But he himself is treated with a velvet glove by society. We have an obvious problem.

Kristeligt Dagblad: Admirable thirst for knowledge

In Lecture Denmark, one sometimes has to pinch oneself. Are there really 90 people sitting in the parish hall on a Tuesday evening to hear about the occurrence of insects in Danish nature? The will to seek new knowledge cannot shoot down drones, but it is ultimately our strongest resilience.

Berlingske: Pig farmers have docked their own support

In the Bermuda Triangle between greedy agriculture, irresponsible politicians, and stingy consumers, we as a society have lost our animal ethics compass. It would suit agriculture to take responsibility for the part of the misery for which it itself bears the responsibility. The same can be said about the politicians and the consumers.

Jyllands-Posten: CPR numbers are not secret

Unknown perpetrators have exploited a company’s access to the CPR register to extract data on 8.8 million people. If you think that your CPR number was secret, there is a high probability that you are mistaken. Time and again, thousands of CPR numbers have been leaked due to errors and sloppiness.

Kristeligt Dagblad: Lack of understanding for Great Prayer Day

The government wants to reintroduce Great Prayer Day, but still has not understood the significance of the day. That the church is once again not included in the considerations regarding the day is absurd. Now, one cannot help but fear that a reintroduction will be carried out in just as thoughtless and ill-conceived a manner […]

Politiken: A stubborn little country

Stubbornness runs through our country. With those words and that temperament, Mette Frederiksen attempted with her opening speech to unite both the Folketing and the population. We must bind together and develop what risks falling apart and being dismantled. Both nationally and internationally.

Ekstra Bladet: Why does it keep happening?

One would think that football fans were thoroughly checked when there is a derby between Brøndby and FC København at Brøndby Stadion or in Parken. However, it is still falling far short when it comes to keeping pyrotechnics such as Roman candles and smoke bombs away from the stands. Why can this still happen, one […]

Information: Retire the CPR number

It is unfortunate that the personal information of 8.8 million citizens has ended up in the wrong hands. The enormous scale of the incident directs completely necessary attention toward a CPR system that experts have warned about for years. One must hope that they listen this time.

Berlingske: The opening speech had one winner – Pelle Dragsted

The government can thank Pelle Dragsted for its survival – but only as long as it fulfills promises worth 35 billion kroner. The Prime Minister’s opening speech to the Folketing was a capitulation to the Copenhagen party Enhedslisten. The speech will likely be remembered for the cheap promises to the world outside Copenhagen.

JydskeVestkysten: A first-class jibe

If one does not believe in coincidences in politics, it is a jab of the highest order that the government is placing a new agency for animal welfare control in Vejen. Here, two of the most vocal critics of the government’s plans to regulate pig production run their farms. That’ll teach them.

Information: Academic witch hunt?

The media coverage of Roskilde Universitet (RUC) in recent years has been hard on the university’s reputation. The dismissal of a critical professor paints a picture of a university that has become so afraid of its own reputation that it is willing to sacrifice academic freedom.

Politiken: Tainted Chairmen

On Tuesday, Søren Gade takes the Speaker’s chair in the Folketing for the last time. The Venstre politician passes on the finest office one can be elected to in Denmark to Henrik Frandsen of the Moderates. It is a change from one problematic speaker to the next.

JydskeVestkysten: Frandsen fails to live up to unwritten rules

When the Folketing elects a new Speaker on Tuesday, we must unfortunately note that he both has brief experience as a member of the Folketing and is burdened by a case concerning agricultural land in Tønder Municipality. The Folketing should have found a more experienced and unblemished member than the Moderates’ Henrik Frandsen.

Berlingske: Mette Frederiksen has had her arm twisted

There is a very broad majority for pursuing a strict immigration policy, both among the population and at Christiansborg. Nevertheless, the soft-line parties have now succeeded in loosening up. There are limits to how many people with anti-democratic values we can let into our national community.

Kristeligt Dagblad: The Tragedy of Antisemitism

In the West, we must do everything we can to ensure that it continues to be possible to live and reside here as a Jewish minority. This requires that we speak openly about Europe’s antisemitic legacy and clearly distance ourselves from the antisemitism that is once again emerging.

Berlingske: Henrik Frandsen is a weak candidate for chairman

Henrik Frandsen is a weak candidate for Speaker of the Folketing. Perhaps it says something about Lars Løkke Rasmussen’s lack of respect for democracy that he was so quick to push Henrik Frandsen in as a candidate for the post.
