A Geordie living in Lincolnshire. Retired from a career in mental health nursing spanning nearly 40yrs. Enjoys photography and family time. No regrets re leaving the other place, reading so much bile and hatred is not good for mental health.

Brexit has been a Tory masterclass in ideological madness. It’s widely accepted by the country as a barrelling shitshow but *still* their entitled little reps strut about insisting we can’t be allowed to vote on it again. Who TF does this person think she is? And why TF should she decide anything?

I live in Kent, I’m appalled that this was allowed to happen. I do not expect hundreds of masked thugs in uniform to have an organised away day causing mayhem with complete impunity - my grandparents fought against this type of behaviour, letting this happen without a single arrest is shocking.

Iceland is not in the EU, but it is a member of the Schengen area. It’s also a member of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) and is part of the Single Market, meaning it enjoys freedom of movement with the EU. Good to know that doesn’t impact their independence. Maybe we should try it, Nige.
