Britain is naturally pro-EU. Read why.

Jon Danzig |

For all the UK’s five decades in the EU, most Britons were happy for us to stay in. They didn’t want us to leave. The issue was settled in the 1975 referendum when, by a massive 2-to-1 landslide, the electorate voted to remain in the European Community. In the years that followed, calls to leave […]

Starting to unpack the Windsor Framework

The unveiling of the Windsor Framework this week was important in many ways.

It was no secret that Russia’s Prime Minister/President, Vladimir Putin, […]
