Denmark is mainland Europe though Suff, not Scandanavia ;) I know I would far rather live in Scandanavia than the US, and we do seem to be going down the same path as the States these days, with their attitude of the devil take the hindmost!

It is mainland Kaz but it is still counted as Scandinavia. It is part of their open borders and their free trade zone which is alongside the EU agreements. Iceland is also in here and when Sweden and Denmark went Schengen, they had to include Iceland too because of the Scandinavian open borders agreements.

I'm not sure that I particularly like the guy and his overarching welfare to work philosophies, but as a Brexit heavyweight, he has my attention if not my support.

I suspect that a long game is being played here. Damage Osborne in order to get into rival leadership candidate Boris's good books, and then hope the mop-haired one wins the Tory battle in due course .....


I think he is one of the best MP's ever. He has my respect.

I think the same, Kate. He would make a good PM.
