The Globalist

How the deep forces of British history, from royalism and classism to nationalism and imperialism, combined to trigger the Brexit moment.

Dealing in alternate realities is a tricky business. As is often noted, predictions are hard, especially about the future.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s belief is that Europe is the problem, not the answer.

Any final Brexit deal will come with a lot of cherry picking.
But it will be EU that will do the picking – not the UK.

It seems less likely by the day that Britain can solve its Brexit problem in an orderly parliamentary process. The question is whether there are other options.

Hardcore Brexiteers’ proposition that May is incompetent because “she” does not deliver the Brexit they want is an unvarnished form of sexism.

Letting Britons have another vote on Brexit is the only sensible option.

Both the U.S. and Russia support Brexit – but not for Britain’s sake.

Theresa May and Winston Churchill have a lot in common. Except that Churchill delivered, whereas May can’t.

The hardcore Brexiteers are so keen on beating up on Theresa May for one primary reason – because she is a woman.
