Someone just retweeted this from 5 1/2 years ago. The angry comments seem almost poignant in retrospect

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

The more I reflect , the more I think we should push back against the outrageous bullying of the Brexiters. It’s failed. Democracies change their minds. We need Europe. Europe needs us. It matters that the Brexit case was built on lies by a man banned from the Commons for lying.

So today I’m going from London to Berlin by Eurostar & the inaugural eastbound @EuropeanSlpr.
Sorry, did I say Berlin? Hell no! I’m going to POLAND. For the weekend. By train. #youknowitmakessense

@Propertyshe @thetimes It is Listed Building Consent that is the challenge.

[Phil Allmendinger @P_Allmendinger]

@FearStephen @Propertyshe @thetimes Definitely. They are temporary changes that can be easily reversed In future.

In Finland, all new PhD holders are given a traditional PhD Sword & Top Hat during a Conferment Ceremony. The sword & hat symbolise the freedom of research and the fight for what is good, right and true.

Unlimited regional public transport across Germany will cost €49/month next year.

The digital 'Deutschlandticket' will be available on a monthly basis from January.

Aim of the '€49-Ticket' is to cut C02 emissions and help people with the cost of living.

@Arron_banks No they aren’t. ‘Illegal’ isn’t a word that simply means what do you want it to. If they are asylum claimants they are not illegal until their claim is heard, assessed, denied and then they seek to stay illegally when they can be deported. That’s our system.

@sixteenthCgirl I love Scrivener and used it to write papers and books. Accessing files on different machines isn’t easy. It can be done but needs some fiddling. I managed it to Dropbox in the end.
Enjoy the podcast, btw.

So it turns out Boris Johnson has actually got one thing right…

No wonder Daily Mail readers look so confused

[alan rusbridger @arusbridger]

On matters to do with the Tory Party @MatthewParris3 has a habit of calling it right. So he’s probably worth listening to - again.

[emily m @maitlis]

What is so striking is how many conservative mps are still talking about what is “ best for the party”. It’s a real give away - that party still seemingly comes before country and constituents and democracy.
