An excellent political round-up from POLITICO. Scary who’s financing Britain’s nationalist dark web? Could this ever lead to the UK’s own Mueller type investigation? Theresa May is right to kill another referendum in Parliament today. Now’s the time to face the realities of a Managed No-Deal. Remember, hope for the best but plan for the worst! Thought?

Theresa May’s op-ed in the Observer is a recommended read. She’s right to pitch towards the political centre ground – ‘one-nation conservatism‘ has a proud tradition going back to Disraeli. Alarmingly, the Labour Party has lurched towards the Far-Left – ‘New Labour’ under Jeremy Corbyn is totally different to ‘Old Labour’, built on compassionare socialism. To win the next general election, the Conservatives must deliver radical policies that will appeal to the political centrists. Since the crash of 2008 too many working and middle class families have suffered under austerity.
