The police warn of the internet drug crystal
The police in southern Fyrbodal go out and warn about the synthetic net drug crystal, reports GP.
The drug is illegal in Sweden, but despite that it is possible to order it directly to the letterbox.
“The drug contains substances that cause intoxication, a feeling of euphoria, increased empathy and hallucinations BUT the preparations can also have serious side effects such as convulsions, psychosis and brain damage,” the police write on Facebook.
Above all, it is used as a party drug among young adults, but the police also see that its use decreases with age.

– Parents must pay attention and take it seriously. If they find this, call the police right away.

Do you know what Annie Lööf will do now and will she receive any severance pay?
Monica
In an interview with DN in December, Annie Lööf said that she wants to continue working with social change, perhaps in equality, diversity or green transition. But first she will take it easy for a few weeks and be with her family.
Politicians do not receive severance pay. However, the Riksdag has a special income guarantee after a member resigns or is dismissed. It lasts up to 15 years.

Is it illegal to burn the Koran in Finland, because Erdogan now demands that it be so and because in the same breath he says he is positive to Finland’s application?
Johnny Lesser
Hey Johnny!
Freedom of expression and freedom of demonstration are constitutional rights in Finland as well. But the Finnish National Police Board tells the news agency STT that similar protests cannot be approved in Finland.
It would be considered a crime against the peace of faith to burn the Koran.
