Great wine, great rugby, and great food. Coached a bit of rugby and drunk far too much wine than my doctor thinks. Staunch remainer (All views are mine and personal)

If Brexit had never happened…
…we’d be much wealthier, with more investment in public services, better trade - and with our parliament & govt having spent the last decade doing far more productive things.

The fact we had a classic yesterday at Twickenham and 80% of the conversation I'm seeing from fans & media is about why the two biggest stars (Who both had good games with a few errors) are dogshit is why rugby has gone so far backwards as a sport. There's no celebration, joy, just moaning.
