Borderless Europe fights brain drain as talent heads north
Portugal to its richer European neighbours in the quest for a better-paid job once he completes his master's degree in Lisbon. But tax breaks proposed by Portugal's government for young workers — up to a temporary 100% income tax exemption in some cases — plus help with housing are making him think twice. «Previous governments left young people behind,» said Monteiro, 23, who is studying engineering and industrial management at the Higher Technical Institute in the Portuguese capital. «The country needs us and we want to stay but we need to see signs from the government that they are implementing policies that will help.»

The tech industry is holding its breath to see what Trump's second term will bring when he takes over in January, especially as SpaceX and Tesla chief Elon Musk is expected to have a huge influence on the next US government.

Going to Lisbon? It's a crime to not eat Pastel de Nata
Is it pasta-de Nadal — a pasta liked by the tennis maestro? I started reading the phrase 'Pastel de Nata' in a couple of British food columns. I still wasn't paying attention, so I continued to think this PdN was a) Spanish, b) a savoury. Then I read some descriptions that identified it as 'a sweedish item', as my school mess manager used to call desserts and puddings. Finally, I understood that this 'Swedish' item was Portuguese. Last year in Oxford, I saw something called a pasteleria — Portuguese for bakery — had opened, and there was a long queue outside. Walking past it one day, I saw the queue wasn't there so I leapt in. 'Hi, can I please have one of those...?'
