       My previous post highlighting the petition wanting Ireland to rejoin the UK reminded me of this graphic.A map of the world showing all the countries who have achieved their independence from the British Empire.Note: not one country has *ever* wanted to be a colony again.#Yes #independence #colonialism #empire #politics

       @fitheach I just can't understand why. It's great here.

       @jamie I'd assumed you were joking, hence the smiley. The irony is that many of those pushing for a no-deal will be those hardest hit by the outcomes.
