A second look at some of the week’s best stories from online and print
If you're anything like us, your week may sometimes feel like a blur.
That's why The Copenhagen Post is trying something different on Sundays. We will take a deep breath, a step back and a second look at some of the stories that made up the past seven days both in our printed weekly newspaper and online.
Here are just some of the stories from the week that was:
– Down-and-out but not forgotten: Our cover story this week is on the opening of a cemetery plot for the city's homeless
– Danes are going to have to get used to the idea of being more hands-on with their rubbish thanks to a new recycling plan
– Sadly for football fans, Denmark saw its World Cup hopes fade away
– The big political story of the past week was the mysterious Taxgate letter, and if you ask us, it's a political drama that tops anything you'll see on 'Borgen'
– As if Taxgate, and its implications that Venstre brass meddled with the audit of Helle Thorning-Schmidt, were not enough, Lars Løkke Rasmussen was also forced to deal with the fallout from his pricey trips and elitist remarks
– Foreigners in Denmark received good news on two fronts this past week with the announcement of relaxed rules for obtaining a Danish driving licence and an easier, shorter citizenship test
– Residents in Vanløse have had enough of their loud biker gang neighbours, and now the city may have found a way to force them out
– Speaking of homeowners, those affected by Skat's erroneous property evaluations can look forward to a reimbursement
– Last week, there were few people who had heard of the young poet Yahya Hassan, but that all changed following some high-profile media appearances
– On the culture front, we had interviews with Danish singer Agnes Obel and British comedian Ross Noble
– And finally, our opinion pages this week featured an attempt to finally solve the mystery of Danish happiness once and for all
That's a taste of what last week had to offer. We look forward to seeing what the next one has in store.
