THREE NEWS YOU CAN’T MISS:

Bolivia’s ex-president Evo Morales accuses the incumbent president Luis Arce of having staged the coup attempt in the country on Wednesday.
Initially, Morales – who previously announced that he intends to challenge Arce in the next presidential election – condemned the military’s actions, calling it a coup “in the making”.
But on Sunday, he joins those who believe Arce staged the failed coup to win Bolivian sympathy.
In a local radio broadcast, Morales says that Arce “deceived us, lied, not only to the Bolivian people but to the whole host”.
It was on Wednesday that soldiers and military vehicles rammed the doors of the government palace in what was described as a failed coup attempt that lasted only three hours.
Shortly before the arrest of designated coup leader and military chief Juan José Zúñiga, he is said to have claimed that he was acting on behalf of the president – which the president denies.

Hello Sven-O!
This is how SMHI defines torrential rain:
“Very heavy rain that falls over a period of a few hours. This can have major consequences in society in a short time.”
Have a nice day, don’t forget your umbrella!
We in BORRBY were also without electricity for about three hours. Have lived in Malmö for about 40 years but don’t care about the city anymore.
If you are now going to represent the whole of Sweden, then make sure to do it.

Hi Niklas! If we were to write about all the power outages in the whole country, there would be a lot, especially when it is usually very local. We are a nationwide newspaper as you mention, but that also means that we cannot write about everything in every locality.
In your top news right now, it says that a top broker is convicted of financial crimes, long prison sentences, but no names.
In the next news regarding murder and rape or for that matter if it is gang-related, you write out the name and post a picture of the perpetrators. what makes the difference? it’s still the case that there are people who are sentenced to rather long sentences, I don’t see the difference, criminal as criminal!
