    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    This could turn out to be a great day. Brexit is over. This is the lowest point. The journey back to sensible governance could begin. I doubt that the tribalism will go away but now the quitters have to fully own their Brexit. PM BJ must fully be held responsible for what unfolds. I hope it...

    I know it’s still a bit early for Christmas threads but

    Advent begins on Sunday fyi I dislike the fact that Advent has disappeared as a period of WAITING and prepping.
