‘But the European debate is conducted in a parallel world: Westminster does not understand the country, and Brussels does not understand Westminster…" #QotD


"But the European debate is conducted in a parallel world: Westminster does not understand the country, and Brussels does not understand Westminster. We continue to try to strip away illusions but it is an uphill struggle…"
~ A "Downing Street official," quoted in the article 'Is the EU about to offer a time-limited backstop?'

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
