First of all, for anyone following this blog, sorry for the patchy comms. It’s been more challenging than I had anticipated. Secondly, I will backfill updates and pictures once I get back to home base.
Well,I seem to have failed to have any effect on the Brexit process, and my search for a. clearer vision on the issue is ongoing. I suppose you could say that crashing out today looks less likely, but I’m not sure I can take much credit for that.
Everyone I have spoken to has an opinion: one London taxi driver felt that we had missed an opportunity for the House of Commons to work cross party, a Dutch bus driver in Brussels told me, ‘If you want to leave just leave’, some German friends are baffled and liken the debates in the Commons as, “like Monty Python’. Most people I speak to express their views readily, and have clearly though it through.
i am beginning to think that the real EU is about people – not as it is presented by the media. Most people are reasonable and just want their elected representatives to represent them thusly (and justly).
I will reflect on this, my first, Brexit trip on my return to my desk. Don’t go away
