We would like to learn more about the housing situation for young people (aged 18-35) in mainland Europe.

What is your situation and who is in your household? Do you live with your family, your partner, housemates, or alone? How satisfied or dissatisfied are you with this arrangement? How does this affect you in your daily life?

Tell us about your situation – if you want a different living situation, what are the factors preventing this? Is it your employment situation, the cost of rent in your city, or a different reason?

What is housing like in your town or city – tell us about price and how easy or challenging it is to find a flat. Has this changed in recent years?

Why I will join Queers for Palestine in turning Eurovision off this year

Four men have been arrested after half a tonne of cocaine worth £40m was found in a van in the car park of a village pub. The National Crime Agency said the drugs are believed to have been brought to shore in a rigid-hulled inflatable boat (RHIB) after being transferred from a larger vessel off the Hull coast. Officers found the RHIB abandoned at Easington Beach, around 18 miles from the Stags Head Inn in Lelley, East Yorkshire, where around 500kg of cocaine was discovered in the back of a Vauxhall Vivaro in the pub's car park.
