Thanks. Paola is so angry about this that at the moment she'd prefer to relinquish UK citizenship.

My wife applied for UK citizenship in her own name. Eventually the Home Office granted it... in her married name. So to get a new UK passport she needs to change name. Easier to drop UK citizenship!

This will cause us problems, and there's absolutely no need for it. It is now easier for a non-UK citizen to enter the UK than it is for my wife (UK/Italian citizen, Italian passport).

Excellent thread, as usual.

Great thread, as always. I lived in Milan in those years, but I couldn't make sense of what was happening.

And Dark Star Is a cult 1974 movie made by John Carpenter. Don't know what the focus groups made of that 🤔😊

Yes, I would be interested.

Flaubert's Budgie

Until last year we could say the same, then various birds discovered that they had free access to a fruit supermarket. No rasps, strawbs, plums, apricots. It's too much to protect.
