You can still pre-order the commemorative coin for the summit on the website for the White House gift shop.

Stop hoarding bottlecaps, we have a new official post-apocalyptic currency.
Exit polls suggest that the Irish abortion ban has been repealed by a massive margin.
Only up to 12 weeks, any later I'm guessing will only be for medical problems for baby or mother
It's as if Ireland is moving confidently into the 21st Century just as England retreats back into the 19th.

I'm not feeling anywhere near as optimistic about dear old Blighty's future, unfortunately.
Not often that I have agreed with Richard Madeley but respect to him for terminating an interview when a politician refused to answer a straight question with a straight answer.

A ray of hope for this English expat living in The Hague with my Indonesian wife. George Soros backing a campaign for a 2nd referendum on Brexit. The Guardian article is worth a read.
Weird! not sure what to make of this at all! Journalist murdered in Ukraine, but no it was staged (apparently his wife thought he was dead)
