I really appreciate the British part of my family.

Peace and solidarity in Europe is not a law of nature. It requires caring, effort and perseverance

We have the opportunity to change Denmark - that opportunity must be seized.

I feel like giving myself a pat on the back. We can create history tonight. We can bid goodbye to 10 years of (Liberal-Conservative) government which has ground to a halt, and get a new government and a new majority in Denmark.

So yes, European decision making is not pretty. But it does work.

But what sets Europe apart is we insist on a social model that consists of solidarity, equal opportunity and a certain amount of redistribution.

I'm taking care of the children, doing a bit of cooking and trying to do a bit of DIY around the house. But that's not going too well.
