Following on from my earlier shout about “is this the end of the EU as we know it”, I have another comment today after watching the news reports.
Everyone seems to be missing the point that this Treaty that the 26 have signed up to will prevent a...
No matter what your political standing is the current situation in the EU and its impact on the UK is very serious. Whilst there is a land grab by the Euro-skeptics within the conservatives what ever happens over the next few weeks has ramifications across the board.
People seem to be taking Jeremy Clarksons comments on the One Show last night very seriously. I happened to watch the show (don't normally) and the comments were made for comic effect not as a belief.

Well did we actually see a massive change in politics over the last 24hours in the UK or are we back to the same old way come Monday?
