Former MI6 chief, Sir Alex Younger gives some Brexit truths.
“Putin would’ve been absolutely delighted by our decision (to leave the EU) and so would Xi.”
“Particularly since I've left office and I've travelled around Europe, I'm profoundly depressed.
“Just nobody mentions the UK. We've made ourselves irrelevant. And this is extraordinary. The beginning part of this century, we were the dominant force. France has effectively eclipsed us and you just don't hear a discussion of us.”
“I think Brexit has Brexit has marginalised us. It was kind of intended to do exactly that.”

Sadly now we are a crime scene
We can only look on as the decline is ignored and our offer to purchase rejected

Ben and the team at @CoolOakGroup have been doing such fantastic work try to conserve the Brent Reservoir, sadly it appears the same cannot be said for everyone involved, wouldn't that be right @BarnetCouncil @Barrattplc?
