The instability caused by Brexit, and especially the wind in populist sails it would invoke, was the genesis of Cameron's comments that were dismissed as project fear world war three nonsense by most Brexiters. Now I'm sure you'll get blokes saying it would all have been fine had the will of the people been honoured, but in reality, those making the warnings that Cameron commented upon (the former heads of Nato if I recall) were spot on.

Do you ever feel like Elmar, Bruce?

There are times when the quality of debate could be a bit higher.

There has been a trend in recent years for people to consider human rights as something of a dirty word. Something that seemingly people don't think applies to them, but is a barrier to justice or implementing their own belief structures.

Abolishing the Human Rights Act, bypassing of courts in favour of direct ministerial interference (I'm looking at you Sajid Javid!), reduction in legal aid.

In many respects, it mirrors the Brexit debate. A complex set of institutions and structures that people don't see relevance or relationship with in their daily lives, that is not very well explained to them.

All hugs are welcome in these challenging times.
