DEN HAAG (ANP) - Vlees wordt mogelijk "ietsje" duurder per juni 2028, wanneer het verbod op uitzendwerk in de vleessector ingaat, denkt minister Hans Vijlbrief (Sociale Zaken). Maar dit is het volgens hem wel waard, "want het is verschrikkelijk wat daar met de werknemers gebeurt".
Volgens de minister gaat het "om mogelijk een procentje, om een dubbeltje" waarmee de vleesprijs stijgt. Ook in Duitsland geldt een verbod op uitzendkrachten in de vleesindustrie en daar heeft het volgens Vijlbrief nagenoeg geen effect gehad op de vleesprijs.
Bronnen vertelden donderdag al dat het verbod deze vrijdag zou worden goedgekeurd in de ministerraad. Vijlbrief wil uitbuiting van vaak Oost-Europese arbeidsmigranten aan banden leggen. Zij krijgen vaak te maken met intimidatie, plots ontslag of soms zelfs mishandeling. Ook is het werk vaak te onveilig en moeten ze te lang doorwerken.
Tjark Ernst is in beeld om de nieuwe doelman van Feyenoord te worden. De Rotterdamse club wil de 23-jarige Duitser overnemen van Hertha BSC. De lovende recensies over de keeper van de club uit de Tweede Bundesliga geven een beeld waarom.

Numerous wildfires are raging across parts of France and Spain, after record temperatures in Europe caused dry conditions and a worsening drought. Two thousand firefighters battled several wildfires fanned by strong winds along France's Mediterranean coast on Thursday, while Spain’s military emergency unit (UME) said it had deployed more than 100 personnel and about 40 vehicles to support firefighting efforts in the Aragon region

Penelope Keith died this week at the age of 86. A formidable actor who came across in real life as grounded, humble and charming, she was known for playing brittle, status-obsessed characters on stage and screen. And none were more memorable than The Good Life’s Margo Leadbetter, whose command of a room depended as much on her diva-level wardrobe as on her pristine home counties vowels. Here was someone who refused to accept the concept of being overdressed, even when answering the hallway telephone. From the moment we first see Margo (in episode two – she is only heard off-screen in episode one), in a screamingly loud chiffon tangerine kaftan, it is obvious that she is the one to watch – first and foremost for her style.
In the 2025 documentary The Good Life: Inside Out, now on Apple TV, celebrating 50 years of the 1970s sitcom, Keith explains that most of the series’ costume budget went on Margo because of her frequent outfit changes: “And people couldn’t wait to see what Margo would wear next.” Keith used to spend Mondays – “my one day off” – in Harrods (“occasionally Harvey Nichols”) trying on pieces: “All those hours in there I spent, trying on those lovely floaty clothes …”. Here are a few of her best looks.

The prospect of a national coalition between Spain’s conservative People’s party (PP) and its far-right Vox party has drawn closer still after the two groupings sealed another deal that will allow the PP to continue ruling the southern region of Andalucía.
The PP, which has governed the former socialist bastion for the past seven years, lost its absolute majority in May’s regional election, forcing it to look to Vox to help it stay in power in Spain’s most populous region.

Police leaders have criticised Downing Street’s decision to let pubs stay open until 5am on Monday for England’s World Cup match against Mexico, saying it will take officers “away from communities”.
Mark Roberts, the National Police Chiefs’ Council lead for football policing, and Scott Green, the organisation’s lead for alcohol licensing, said the “late announcement” meant forces would have to adapt plans and would leave officers working extended hours.

For today's theme, three photos from Blue Mountains National Park in Australia. There are many wonderful walks in Blue Mountains National Park, some of which afford visitors wonderful views and take them past waterfalls. This shot shows Queen's Cascade on the Wentworth Falls Track.
Queen's Cascade is a picturesque, tiered waterfall located along Jamison Creek at the top of the spectacular Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains National Park, New South Wales.
