Great to have such an enthusiastic support for rejoining Erasmus from the Vice Chancellor of Oxford University on #t4today
No stupid questions about whether this was anti-Brexit.
Just unequivocal celebration of the chance to broaden our horizons again. A step on the road back to sanity.

The question is no longer whether Britain needs to repair our relationship with Europe, but rather when will the Government will act on it. The country cannot afford another decade of hesitation.

"the Environmental Protection Agency...is revising an assessment of the health dangers posed by formaldehyde, a widespread pollutant that causes far more cancer than any other chemical in the air. Working on that effort were two of those former industry insiders, who are now top EPA officials."
NEW: Chemical industry lobbyists have long pushed the government to adopt a less stringent approach to gauging the cancer risk from chemicals, one that would help ease regulations on companies that make or use them.

They finally got their wish.

Allies must act as allies.

We must respect each other's sovereignty.

Europeans do not share the same vision as the Americans on various issues. This is natural. What we cannot accept is the threat of interference in Europe’s democratic life.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

It really is sad to say, but it cannot be denied: we in Europe now have to consider America and Americans as our enemy. The publication of Trump's new doctrine in the National Security Strategy makes clear that the US government wants to hurt us in Europe. We need to turn our back on America
