Tata Steel Promised Billions & Renting a House without a Floor? - Lowdown #15

On this week's Lowdown, we'll discuss the 2 billion euros in subsidies controversially promised to Tata Steel, who run the largest plant in the country, in order to produce steel more sustainably. Then, we'll talk about the largest pension fund in the Netherlands its decision to divest from Caterpillar, the company that supplies Israel with the bulldozers it uses against civilian targets in the West Bank and Gaza.

After running through a handful of other headlines, we get to the Holland Hotline, where our international guest gets to ask their most pressing question about Dutch society.

In this episode, Kat's question is about why you can rent an apartment with a floor here in the Netherlands.
