What does Holocaust denier mean?
Was never quite sure.
If someone did some research and concluded that there were not the 'official' 6 million victims, there were about 3 million, then I believe he is judged a Holocaust denier.

We review how much more we are able to spend – and on whatThe latest official figures show consumers are spending more, after inflation, than before the Referendum.On Friday (28 Jun 2024) the Office for National Statistics released its latest data for household expenditure in the United Kingdom. These clearly show that consumers feel able to spend more now – after adjusting for inflation – than just before the EU Referendum in June 2016. These are therefore real increases.With a broadly anti-Brexit Labour government about to be elected on Thursday, we de-bunk another of their claims about what it means for the United Kingdom to be outside the EU....facts4eu

Touch of irony there. The left condemn Le Pen as the daughter of a holocaust denier as they protest to see Israel wiped off the map from the river to the sea.

MM2, when my next door neighbour got his Alsation I had all our hedges replaced with close board fencing and installed a couple of glory holes. After a couple of unsuccessful/ close shaves we've settled on peanut butter or Nutella which I've found are licked off with less enthusiasm than say bovril. Hope thus helps.

Germany are in a mess and France is in a mess.
Those huge ICE car sales are struggling, and China are making millions of good electric cars at cut prices.

We are in an age of protectionism, globalisation is dead.
Germany must be worried, they are big manufacturers and exporters.

We in UK are indebted, not getting enough in taxes, to many of welfare and with entitlements, an ageing population.

Yet many homes have more than one clingy car, house prices elevated, multiple holidays per years.
Airports packed, trains packed, I see lots of people doing very well and they are about to kick out the Government to 'clear up the mess".

Tanks playing major role in Russian army’s advance in south Donetsk area — top brass
The T-80BVM tank was engineered to operate in a tense environment under heavy enemy fire

MOSCOW, June 28. /TASS/. Russian troops are actively moving forward in the south Donetsk area and tanks are playing a major role in this advance, Russia’s Defense Ministry reported on Friday.

"Russian troops are now actively advancing in the south Donetsk direction almost along the entire frontline and modern tanks are playing an important role in that," the ministry said.

The crews of T-80BVM and T-90 Proryv tanks of Russia’s Battlegroup East are delivering direct fire, wiping out Ukrainian army strongholds at approaches to Ugledar in the south Donetsk direction. The tank crews are now striking enemy fortifications near the city, it said.

"We provide cover [for troops] by direct fire. We move forward, strike a stronghold, blanket a forest belt up and down by fire and move back calmly," the tank mechanic-driver with the call sign Perun said.

The T-80BVM tank was engineered to operate in a tense environment under heavy enemy fire. The T-80BVM produced a year ago has been upgraded based on the experience of the special military operation in Ukraine. The tank’s strong armor and protective plates enable it to operate within the area of the enemy’s direct visibility.

"If the tank sustains a hit but the objective has not been accomplished, the crew should try to fulfil it. That is, the crew should move from one position to another and accomplish the objective that has been assigned and only then move back," the tank commander with the call sign Sokol said.

In addition, tanks operate well in complete darkness and conduct most raids to the line of engagement precisely at night. "A night sight performs splendidly and when you move forward, everything can be seen well and you strike the target," the tank gunner with the call sign Petrukha said.
