No, not under that name, possibly as the Republic of North Macedonia, Greece would not accept them.

Possibly. But I'm not convinced that it wouldn't be necessary for the secession also to have occurred by March 29.

Not sure about that - it would be a bit like Catalonia being allowed to become a member of the EU whilst divorcing from Spain. Which wouldn't go down very well...

Is JH any less mis-guided than BJ was? 'Don't mistake British politeness for weakness', Jeremy Hunt tells EU The foreign secretary said EU leaders should not ‘insult the British people on social media’ Of course, because he said it on the radio, that doesn't count as "social media", so...

My referendum vote was in England but any future vote, if there is one, would be in Wales. Would that tip the balance and make it just England wanting to leave? :):)

My Quiksilver jacket has long elastic cuffs inside the sleeves. Intended to stop any snow going up. Have had very wet gloves but never wet arms.

Thank goodness that Tesco is ready for brexit... Jack's Little Englandism is about as convincing as its Cornish camembert Rivkah Brown The new Tesco chain prides itself on its British products – but it’s really selling the myth of post-Brexit self-sufficiency...

Has us rolling in the aisles. Probably in a tumbrel.

WW2 thanks to Russia. (Yes, USA turned up as well, and others - not meaning to dismiss or ignore them. But the scale of Russia's involvement is almost beyond imagining.)

Interesting news article which includes the sentence: Legally speaking, it can be like Brexit was all just a bad dream. Today’s ruling shows the triggering of article 50 can be reversed Jolyon Maugham...

I wear Aldi neoprene wellies (just under £20 last time they had them). Surprised myself by wearing them every time I ride even through the summer. (Largely because no other footwear I have works well.) They are relatively warm, waterproof, comfortable. They keep my trousers dry and oil-free...

You'd have to be really, really dumb not to see that potential. (Even the government might have realised?) :) It might be possible to more-or-less manage commercial VAT issues, but not when the movement across borders is done by one-man-and-a-dog outfits or individuals - though they could just...

Is anyone blaming this mistake on EU intransigence? Macron puts the boot in after May's Brexit breakfast blunder The UK dropped a bombshell on the Irish issue, and France ripped up the summit plan The spin from Downing Street had been that Theresa May’s meeting with her Irish counterpart...
