    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Corbyn will do everything to make sure that when the music stops its the Torys who are holding the package. Labour want nothing to do with this birth (to switch metaphors for a moment). They want to make sure all the negative feelings people have about it will forever be associated with the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes. It all becomes black and white. 'Remainers' are cast in a certain light by 'Brexiters' - and vice versa. The EU painted in one tone by one group - and the opposite tone by the other. It's mad. But its the way the human mind works - it creates 'in' and 'out' groups - and rarely...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This last part's interesting: “It’s a confrontation between two very different conceptions of Europe,” said Mr. Lazar — the ultranationalist, populist conception of Mr. Salvini, and Mr. Macron’s constant proselytizing for a more unified, transnational Europe. Mr. Macron’s palpable disdain for...

    While we rat on about Brexit - France today withdrew its Ambassador from Rome over their tussle about a massive long list of grievances. From the NYT: It has happened rarely between European Union allies, and not between France and Italy since the start of World War II. But on Thursday...

    Doh. It's not Brexit they're worried about - its a Corbyn government. That's why the money is leaving.

    I think you'll find it was the loony fringe of the Right wingers - and around 17.39m 'mates'.

    Donald (Tusk not the other one) emailed me earlier and said he was extremely disappointed in my views and would be seeing what changes he could make to the agreement as a result. Who says these Europeans are not open to a sensible argument huh?

    Brendan O'Neil's take on Tusk: "It’s useful to be reminded every now and then just how much the Brussels oligarchy hates us. So let’s be grateful to Donald Tusk, president of the European Council, for his slipped-mask comment today. He effectively condemned to hell the 17.4million Britons who...
