Amen. Some might see this column - and your comments- as political. Not so, they are Realpolitik - a German concept that many in Brussels ignore while continuing to push a centralisation policy that is not very well appreciated by the electorates who are their ultimate masters, albeit currently disenfranchised by the delegated authority system of the EU.

David Fuller's view

Thanks, Norman, I appreciate your comments.

Furthermore, I think we always knew that leaving the EU was going to be both challenging and divisive, although I believe a clear majority now favours Brexit.  I am glad that Theresa May is leading the country at this crucial time and I maintain the UK’s long-term prospects are excellent.
