It's a sad state of affairs that this is the first year where my wife, a military brat whose father was a Colonel, and myself, former foreign correspondent, have felt emotionally uncomfortable attending a Remembrance Day service. All because of extreme nationalism of those who've weaponised the flag
09.11.2025 11:34 β π 215 π 36 π¬ 9 π 1Yep, it sure backfired. Like a lot of things.ππ
09.11.2025 13:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yes, it does make you wonder. I know a few older folks in UK who voted Brexit & they say it was 'for their sovereignty' & 'to protect their borders ' but they can't enlarge on that. I keep my distance nowadays. Dad & grandad were very pro unity.......
09.11.2025 13:00 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I honestly don't believe that either my dad (WW2) or my grandfather (WW1) would have wanted Brexit. I think they would have been gobsmacked. I also believe they would have wondered what they'd fought for if they saw how broken UK has become.

Remembering my dad who fought in the Far East (Burma) during WW2. He was a PoW in Changi.β€οΈ
Remembering my dad when no one else does, not even his family. No one ever talks about him and his name is never mentioned.π₯π₯

You always sum it up exactly right
08.11.2025 20:30 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Removing Article 50 would miss the point. The EU isnβt a cage, itβs a voluntary union built on shared consent. The goal isnβt to make leaving impossible, itβs to make belonging so valuable and functional that no member state ever wants to go.
29.10.2025 16:40 β π 9 π 2 π¬ 3 π 0Exactly. You are right. Thanks for your reply. I've listened and learnt.
