As some sort of half-Brit (my mother is a British citizen, born to a Jewish family in Berlin in 1938 -- not the best of odds! -- but: Kindertransport) I follow what goes on in the UK, and I am quite worried. There seems to be a malaise, not only in Britain but many European countries, an unsettled forboding of worse to come. I'm afraid our betters have made some very foolish decisions in decades past, and they seem intent on riding their vainglorious chariot of virtue straight off the cliff.
I sense that many ordinary people are seeing the direction of travel and are hunkering down, consolidating, preparing for difficult times. I hope I'm wrong but fear I'm right.
Hmmm ... these are troubling times, indeed.

Live well my friend!
