Gulf of Make a Report to Apple
Honestly - this is from a playbook used by every autocratic administration: “Take the attention away from the more important things”. Seen it in EU constantly: Hungary, Slovakia, Serbia, etc. So sure, report it, but be aware this is a charade.

Denmark to raise retirement age to highest in Europe
Denmark is set to have the highest retirement age in Europe after its parliament adopted a law raising it to 70 by 2040.
Since 2006, Denmark has tied the official retirement age to life expectancy and has revised it every five years. It is currently 67 but will rise to 68 in 2030 and to 69 in 2035.
The retirement age at 70 will apply to all people born after 31 December 1970.

Belgrade to make public transport free from January 1
Yeah but theres a catch as well - the timetables/schedules are scrapped too. So you wont know when will the bus arrive or will it even arrive at that day.
It doesn’t sound great when you realize you cant really enjoy a free bus ride when theres no bus coming.

Survey: Confidence in French President Macron hits all-time low
Sorry but this has to be the stupidest shit survey ever (objectively doesn’t matter who the politician is) - only online?, for 1 day, N number of respondents is crap and not representative when compared to the actual number of people France has, etc., just so that someone can make an article?
Give me a break.

Pepts, shrinkflated packaging
Hah this post reminded me - I noticed this on stupid AfterEight mints as well, they didnt update the size of packaging (box maybe slightly but the little papers are the same), so you can clearly see how much they reduced those mints (circa 1/4 iirc).
