Yes of course, but AP was not the centre-right until the late 80s when UCD collapsed.

Just what were the talents for which Gill was reselected in 2019 while 10 of the other 12 incumbents were dropped?

In 2019, 24 Brexit Party MEPs were elected, 21 of them not previously in office.

He was also a UKIP/Brexit Party MEP in 2014-2020, and one of the very few UKIP politicians that Nigel Farage retained as a candidate for the Brexit Party in 2019. #NathanGill

Before Brexit, UK HE did not pursue student exchanges under Erasmus-plus to countries whose university systems operate to some extent in English, as in Netherlands or Scandinavia. A resource that was untapped for those who were not studying languages.

#Erasmus-plus always included mobility for vocational education and was not limited to language learners.

The EU should discontinue UK participation in Horizon from 2028 if the UK does not fully participate in Erasmus+

I also cringe and not just about UK Gov. Partner countries do not "pay into the EU budget" and the FT should know this. They pay into particular funds and those contributions have to stay inside those funds. #AssignedRevenue

I dunno but maybe there is an opportunity if the Conservatives don't fully fold into Reform for them to survive as a 10-15% party like LR in France.

Edward VIII, maybe, but I'm always surprised by how little the British know about the King of Italy who appointed Mussolini and signed the racial laws.
