    Deportations, obesity, and dinner party decline. This week, Dom and Fionn, internationals living in Denmark, explore how Denmark debates who belongs, and how we live together. From the Danish People’s Party’s proposal to deport up to 100,000 internationals, to a warning that obesity may surge across municipalities, and a new study showing social life is moving out of the home, these stories reveal deeper questions about inclusion, inequality, and connection in Danish society.

    Topics:

    (01:42) DF remigration plan

    (18:39) Rising obesity rates

    (26:15) Dinner parties fade

  • Voting Rights for Internationals, Tax Perks or Election Tricks, and Denmark’s Aging Crisis: LWID S4E13
    Nov 5 2025

    Send us a text

    Voting rights, tax breaks, and tough truths. This week, Katie and Kalpita dive into Denmark’s local elections, revealing what internationals need to know before casting their votes.

    This week’s episode explores how democracy and welfare intersect in Denmark — from mobilizing international voters and new tax breaks to deeper concerns about inequality, digital privacy, and social care. With municipal elections on November 18, the hosts unpack how internationals can confirm eligibility, vote early, and even get paid to help on election day. They also question whether Denmark’s new tax deductions for gym and music lessons are genuine relief or just election-month optics, while highlighting growing issues like high food prices for the elderly, welfare cuts, and the debate over Denmark’s withdrawn EU “chat control” plan.

    Topics:

    (01:39) Boosting International Voters

    (12:10) Become a Polling Helper

    (13:44) Tax Breaks Explained

    (16:47) Fixed-Price Medicine Plan

    (19:32) Elderly Food Costs

    (21:11) Emergency rent subsidy

    (21:59) Democracy Meets Daily Life
