BBrexit

Finally found what all the fuss is about on the Brexit front.
The document apparently contains 500+ pages, but is actually
a technical accord to the effect that things carry on as always,
to the end of the EU budget cycle in two years.

Get a grip, people...

Just for the fun of it, read up last night on the amendments that David Cameron
had negotiated on the UK-EU accord, and for which he wanted public assent with
a referendum. All the clauses have kicked in, except for the last signaling that
Britain would go no further in political integration with th EU. (It missed its
time stamp).

Looks like they found it...😂
