In a very quick nutshell...
No holding fuel for wx or traffic. "Local knowledge"
No Inter's
Tempo's mean something else.
I'd have to dig out the exact meaning but it ain't "put 60 min worth of holding fuel onboard".
It means roughly, poor wx for no less than 60 min but no greater than half the validity period of the TAF.

Alternates are carried every where. Sometimes two. However, in Europe there are lots of airfields with ILS's.

I'd have to dig up the references and give you an exact answer.
