A non-UK view from within the UK: Why I’m so angry with Cameron – and May too Miriam González Durántez His arrogance gave us the Brexit referendum, but in calling us queue jumpers May has inflicted moral damage...

Fundamentally agree. The one thing that has really undermined my willingness to pay what I owe has been those who conspire to pay nowt, or nearly so. How can any of us feel bad about "getting away" with a few quid in the context of others getting away with millions? (The other factor is when...

Even if I can be sarcastic and facetious. :D

Let us have a full list of MPs (and others in the public eye) who suggest that no-deal is a viable option. Bank of England says no-deal Brexit would be worse than 2008 crisis Bank warns of immediate economic crash, GDP to fall by 8%, unemployment to rise to 7.5%...

Pretty much due north of Portugal. Which itself is to the west of pretty much the whole of England, Wales and Scotland.

Polly Toynbee, again: Get on with it? No, May’s Brexit plan was a disaster from day one Polly Toynbee The prime minister sought to appease hardliners and ended up with the worst kind of deal. Her letter to the people is hogwash...

He travelled into East Berlin regularly - from West Berlin, where we lived. Yes - we did the autobahn - timed and all - several times.

Though they do have control over people entering the EU to work - which the footballers are paid to do. (There's bound to be some over-arching international law that puts the rights of sports people to make a fortune ahead of ordinary folk getting a crust.)

Not the 'Dear EU, sorry!' that we might want... May said she was wrong to complain about EU workers being able to “jump the queue” under free market rules in a speech to the CBI last week. She made the rare admission that she had made a mistake in response to a question from the SNP’s Philippa...

They don't marry the countries! Would be really useful if they could.

That is true. But I certainly remember my father very much needing his passport in the RAF. Maybe being in occupied Berlin and travelling to East Berlin and along the transport corridors was a factor? I also wonder if the potential of coming down in a country other than ally or enemy also makes...

The tradition is for one of our unmarried royals to marry one from the country with which we want a happy relationship. Oh dear. Germany and France are republics.

I think it needs to be in the three procedural languages... 'Dear EU, sorry!' Is it ok if we just stay on the terms we have had previously?' "Liebe EU, Entschuldigung!" Ist es in Ordnung, wenn wir uns an die Bedingungen halten, die wir zuvor hatten? ' 'Chère UE, désolée!' Est-ce que ça va si...

Apparently, nurses did need passports. (Just found.)

I wonder if there will be a response? My letter to Jeremy Corbyn: your nation is threatened – back a people’s vote Gina Miller Brexit is too dangerous to be used in a bid for power – Labour must help to prevent the UK becoming a laboratory for this rightwing experiment...

I really, really wanted to get away from Trump's USA... InSight lander: Nasa probe touches down on Mars – live updates Why, even Musk is tempted... Elon Musk considers move to Mars despite 'good chance of death'

If blue passports were such an important part of the UK's heritage, why did we switch to burgundy in 1988? So far as I can tell, 'twasn't mandatory, just recommended. [Editing to add: I assume the decision was made during a Thatcher government.] And the first book-style modern passport only...

Are you sure? He's from Georgia, and he doesn't speak the language very well There are some who I would likely understand better if they spoke Spanish.

To be fair, at least he didn't entirely muck it up unlike certain previous Foreign Secretaries might well have done. Well, one of them.
