a lot more. Add to that the outrages which will be caused by Priti

hostile Home Office closing the border to Europeans on the stroke of
midnight on 31 October: expect children separated from parents;
doctors and
nurses barred from returning to work; mayhem and scandal across
Europe at
our brutal behaviour

Sunlit uplands, then, Brian?

You just keep trying to reassure yourself Steve, you seem to need it.

Im just very concerned about children with cancer running out of
medicine,
Brian. I would expect most decent people to be so, tbh. Its
€œinteresting€�
that you dont seem to care one way or the other. HTH, OM.

No chemicals to treat the water supply?

Is this country incapable of manufacturing chlorine based chemicals?

Is this country capable of manufacturing anything?

And is free to import that stuff before 29-Oct.
