https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/apr/15/eu-entry-exit-system-ees-delays-airports-border-checks. This is all because of #Brexit! The #UK is now a "third country" as far as the #EU is concerned, & by its own choice, outwith not only the EU itself, but the #SingleMarket & the #Schengen Zone. We could have joined #EFTA, & stayed in the Single Market, but we chose not to do so, because THAT would have meant accepting #free #movement of labour - perish the thought! All those anti-immigrationists would have had KITTENS!

"The Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA) requires that the millions of documents collected by the Department of Justice (DOJ) about Jeffrey Epstein be shared with the public in a “searchable and downloadable” format. In practice, though, the searchability of the DOJ releases has been crude at best. Keywords may turn up individual links to PDFs, but users have reported major search malfunctions and limitations handling the documents at scale.
As the American public and people around the world try to understand the over 3 million pages of documents, 180,000 images, and 2,000 videos in the latest Epstein Files drop, these search limitations are a serious barrier to entry. In the vacuum created by the DOJ, journalists and engineers have stepped in to fulfill EFTA’s transparency promise. Many of them are using AI tools to create alternative databases and release them for the general public — making the files more easily searched, analyzed, and understood by the average person.
Take Jmail, an interactive archive that has transformed the dense email PDF files of Epstein’s emails into a familiar, searchable Gmail-style inbox. Last month, Riley Walz, one of Jmail’s creators, announced that the Jmail website had surpassed 450 million page views."

It's a good day for obscure international courts, as the often neglected EFTA Court made front-page news in Norway over its judgment in the Norwegian State v Greenpeace Nordic.
The head of #Greenpeace Norway is quoted calling the #EFTA Court "the most important tribunal Norway must deal with as an #EEA country". While the validity of this claim could be questioned, it is certainly more true today than it was yesterday.
