Theresa May's Dates of Doom

  For about the last three hundred years I've been saying that Theresa May is going to resign because she can't get her withdrawal agreement through Parliament. Obviously she hasn't resigned, but that's only because she's in some kind of personal head butting contest with Jeremy Corbyn, these two stubborn donkeys stood there honking and hooting at each other. She has kept her job a lot longer than I thought she would, and yet she never achieves anything by keeping it. It's like we've all been dragged into the worst performance of Waiting for Godot. Nothing happens. No one comes, no one goes. It's awful.   But I keep telling everyone it can't last much longer. For the last two years there's been an empty diary, but eventually the outside world was bound to intrude. There are events beginning to unfold which Theresa May can do nothing about and which by the end of it she won't have a job. Dates of destiny and doom.   May 2nd Local

European Union constituencies for the United Kingdom

Image
European Union constituencies in the United Kingdom . Each constituency for the European parliament is made up of several counties, or in the case of the three nations, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales, each one comprises a single constituency of itself. .   I've decided to make what I couldn't easily find anywhere else. A set of maps showing which counties belong to which constituency, and how many MEPs are allocated to it. So if you know where you live, you can easily see which European constituency you're in, and who else is in it with you. . . .   . . . . . . .   . .. .   . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   . . . .   . . . .   . . . . . . .
