Brexit makes no sense in a world dominated by Trump. Britain’s place is back in the EU | Jonathan Freedland
www.theguardian.com
From defence to trade, the incoming US president is upending the old order – and standing apart from our neighbours leaves us dangerously exposed, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

It’s one damned thing after another. As Keir Starmer is discovering, government, like life, can feel like a fusillade of events, each coming faster than the one before. If it’s not a cabinet minister resigning over a past fraud conviction, it’s MPs voting for assisted dying – and that’s just in one day. Through that blizzard of news, it can be hard to make out the lasting changes in the landscape – even those that have profound implications for our place in the world.

    unfortunately I don’t think Bre-admittance would be nearly as easy as Brexit

      This is great, but not totally consistent. I assume that’s why you didn’t say Bre-xit. Br-admittance is also not ideal though…I think you’ve struck a fair compromise. Good job!

      To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day.
