Feels very odd and very British: everyone too embarrassed to make first move. Like: dudes, it's the future of the UK, not the last canapé.

An exodus of EU workers is on the cards. Employers can stop it from happening, but they need to act quickly
We really have become completely schizophrenic. Decades of alternative facts from the Mail et al and as an electorate we are now completely dysfunctional.

A new survey shows that public approval of the European Union has rebounded dramatically compared with a year ago.
The poll results from the U.S.-based Pew Research Center show that majorities in nine of 10 EU member countries now hold a favourable view of the 28-country economic and political bloc.

However, businesses should make the most of new international opportunities, Prince Andrew said.
He added that he is "as much in the dark as anyone else" about Brexit.

This time last week, or a little earlier, I questioned Corbyn.
I questioned everything about him. I thought he was riding on a wave of momentum.
I still don't think he's that smart, in fact I think he was as shocked and delighted as we were at the time.
But none of that matters anymore.
He's now the head of a social movement, one we've never seen before in this country, one that could change things in ways I never thought possible.
And wouldn't it be nice if all the shit we'd been told wasn't possible by Blair and the Mail turned out to be quite possible after all.
