Just struck by a dreadful thought. Emigrating means I need good curry when I’m in the UK, but what will happen to curries post-Brexit?
It might be cash-strapped returnees from the Costas heating up cans of Old Oak Meat Curry while brilliant chefs wait 20 years for a visa. 😦

Apparently Steve Hilton (former No 10 adviser and dotcom CEO) is NOT the elite, but someone elected by fifty thousand voters is. Ok then.
Billionaire property magnates who screw over small businesses: not elite. People who campaign for years and talk to voters every day: elite.
Ex-city trader who does 4 terms in EP but barely shows up: not elite. MP for a steel town who campaigns tirelessly for sacked workers: elite
So, the elite work harder, better represent citizens, and are poorer than the non-elite. Someone tell the OED.

If I supported Brexit, I would worry about Farage tying it so closely to Donald Trump. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
It goes without saying they are totally connected, but it’s to the Brexiteers strategic advantage for that to be deniable.

Listening to Chandos Anthems: ”God is very greatly to be feared in the council of the Saints”. Can’t not think of that in #localgov terms.
Now up: ”Righteousness and Equity are the habitation of thy seat, Mercy and Truth go before thy face” #localgovclassicalsongbook

I find it astonishing that the MP for Kemp Town should be voting against guaranteeing rights for EU residents hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2016-1…
Obviously the whole thing is just months and months of me being astonished by how stupid it all is, but still. Kemp Town.
