Ex-Sun Editor Kelvin MacKenzie Brexit U-turn…bit late mate

By Steve Taggart It appears that former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie is regretting opting for the Leave campaign and writing quite a few articles on the subject. MacKenzie has “buyer’s” remorse after backing Brexit, and it “fearful” about what lies ahead. Twitter had a few comments for him… Kelvin MacKenzie's column in today's Sun (page 15): pic.twitter.com/3RaP2ZxPN0 — Richard James (@richjamesuk) June 27, 2016 The Western world's worst living journalist now regrets voting Leave: https://t.co/klXL5yxTpZ — Matt Ford (@fordm) June 27,...

Britain Offered First Trade Deal Outside EU By Iceland!

Britain has been offered its first trade deal outside the EU by Iceland's President hours before the two countries clash in Euro 2016. Olafur Ragnar Grimsson, Iceland's president , said the UK can join a 'triangle' of non-EU countries including Greenland, Iceland, Norway and the Faroe Islands. These nations either belong to the European Economic Area (EEA) or are overseas territories whose people have EU citizenship. Mr Grimsson said Britain leaving the EU was a "grim" result which spelled a positive outcome...

Review: Tusks – False

Find comfort for your broken heart in Tusks’ latest EP False. Drenched in intense emotion and vulnerability, False is the latest EP from Emily Underhill, following up 2014’s self-produced debut Ink. ‘For You’ starts with mournful pianos and clicking percussion that almost sounds like heavy raindrops, creating a sense of being weighed down. The piano and percussion build until Tusks’ celestial vocals enter with “It’s all for you”. Her voice mixed with pitch-shifted harmonies makes for an eerily beautiful first...

100k Strong Brexit Protest Interrupted By Music Festival

A 100,000 people strong Brexit protest was interrupted by a music festival this weekend. Youthful liberals from across the country gathered in Glastonbury to protest the UK's decision to leave the European Union only to be disrupted by popular music on a pyramid stage. Acts such as Coldplay, Adele and the ironically-named 'New Order' turned up in  Somerset to thwart the attempts of hundreds of thousands of hippies to stage a peaceful protest. The music was deemed so distracting that even Jeremy...

Scotland Seeks “New Flatmate” On Gumtree

A new ad seeking a new flatmate for Scotland has appeared in the 'roomshare' section of Gumtree. The spoof ad reads: "Small industrious northern European nation of 5.3million seeks new flatmates as current resident's behaviour has become unreasonable." It stipulates that rent is £200 per-month, but for that bargain price lodgers can expect "nice views" as well as "free university education and medicine" and an "occasionally leaky roof". Anyone interested should contact Nic or Eck, although sporty types need not...

UK Economy “Heading For Recession”

The UK economy is heading for recession, according to Bank of America's Ralf Preusser. The GBP/USD exchange rate gapped lower on the open to Monday trade as traders return to their desks, with 30 year lows at 1.3238 to be tested over coming days. Preusser noted: "Prolonged uncertainty could lead investors - including residential investors - to postpone decisions. "We think a recession in the UK will ensue, which cuts our calendar year 2017 GDP growth forecast to 0.2 per cent from 2.3 per...

Blue Wine Set To Hit European Markets

Blue Wine is set to hit European markets and expected to be on shelves within the next two months in the UK. GIK has been created in collaboration with the University of the Basque Country and Azti Tecnalia and is expected to be a big hit in the UK, where drinkers prefer sweeter styles of wine. The wine is created using a blend of red and white grapes predominantly sourced from vineyards in La Rioja, Zaragoza, Leon and Castilla-La Mancha, and is hued...

Electoral Reform Will Be Needed To Justify Brexit

By Bill E. Lytton We are entering a period of unprecedented, but entirely predictable, political and economic volatility. The next major test for politicians and campaigners in post-Brexit Britain is how to handle promises they made repeatedly throughout the referendum. Already, Boris Johnson and Michael Gove - as seen in their speeches at Vote Leave HQ - are trying to distance themselves from the more tarnishing elements of the Leave campaign. On reneged promises, it has also become clear - though...

Time for a Republic of London?

Still suffering from the EU referendum earthquake, the wheels may be coming off the UK already. Scotland gave a resounding 'No' to the Eurosceptic lobby setting the scene for another independence vote. Northern Ireland chose to remain despite the DUP's self-serving europhobia. Voters in both countries can rightly claim they've been unwillingly pulled in the wrong direction. More than anyone else, Londoners must feel their destiny is now out of their hands. Despite huge support for Remain across the city,...
