Brexit is now, in a majority of voters minds, linked with high interest rates, trade friction, travel friction and general incompetence. The reality may be more complex, but that doesn’t matter - it’s about perception, and the perception is that Brexit is not only a failure but a liability. And there is more pain to come. This is why in my view, coupled with demographic change, it is inevitable that we will soon begin the process of rejoining the single market and customs union no matter what Labour or the Conservatives say at the next election. This irresistible pressure will probably split the Conservative Party, which is ironic because Cameron’s only strategic aim in calling the referendum in the first place was to placate fringe elements of the Party.

Man: no definition needed. Non-man (formerly known as woman): a being definable only by reference to the male. An absence, a vacuum where there's no man-ness.

“Do you work in business?" "No, I'm homeless. I'm a homeless person." Excruciating.

The Tories will throw everything at nurses over the coming weeks. They've already started their propaganda war. But the public knows who's to blame for the NHS crisis - and it isn't nurses. The Government should end the smears, open talks with nurses and then pay them properly.

Something will have to give sooner rather than later if these poll numbers persist. As an aside, I’d be amused and delighted if we ended up in Schengen :-)

To put in context multi millionaire Nadhim Zahawi threatening nurses & ambulance paramedics with bringing in soldiers to break their strike, it’s worth remembering his expenses claim which included heating his horses’ stables was more than a nurse on starting pay is asking for.
