RE: News of the World - DerVVulfman - 04-07-2020

Erm, I'd rather think of Jay Benedict for his role in Foyle's War from BBC TV than the rich Twit in The Dark Knight Rises.

On another sombre note, the James Bond universe just lost one of the most famous Bond Girls (if by name only). Honor Blackman from the movie Goldfinger passed away peacefully at age 94 from natural causes. Besides being Pussy Galore in Goldfinger, she was also Cathy Gale in the TV Show, The Avengers(1962-64), and was Hera in Jason and the Argonauts (1963).

Italy, Spain, France and some other EU states want to share out coronavirus-incurred debt in the form of "coronabonds" (or eurobonds) - mutualised debt that all EU nations help pay off.
...Others, mainly in northern Europe, argue that taxpayers in wealthier countries should not have to bail out countries whose politicians were fiscally irresponsible.
