Day 16 Villafranca de Montes de Oca to Atapuerca
Yup, I am locked in the hotel and can’t leave.
Hotel is very pretty though.
Real life escape room challenge.
I’m free!
Had a conversation about Brexit. Yuck!
Second breakfast town is 9km away.
Sneaky windmills.
Down and up.
Detour!
Back into the forest now.
I need a separate thread for lost shoes of the camino.
Simply can’t beat Spain in the sun. Wonderful country.
Going to meet the relatives.
Just going to sit here in the sun for a couple of hours.
French school group has just turned up to my siesta.
What style church is it? Kids are well informed about Romanesque architecture.
They are having a race around the church now.

Day 17 Atapuerca to Burgos
And rest day, not that I deserve one this week. But y’know, there’s facilities in Burgos that must be utilized.
Yikes!

Day 15 Belorado to Villafranca de Montes de Oca
Another short day. Only about 12km so there is a 5km detour and some other time killing to fill the space.
Various reasons for the short days, e.g. toe recovery, particular hostels to stay in, towns to avoid. But it’s starting to get on my nerves.

Impressions from conversations with German and British officials, think-tankers and politicians at the Königswinter Conference on 11-12 April. Disclaimer: this is just my personal take and by no means a comprehensive report. Thread 1
After the Brexit intensity of the last few months, it was so impressive that the British delegation found its way to Berlin on the day after the EUCO cliff-edge. Also, Kudos to the German organizers who were forced to update the Programme almost hourly over the last few weeks. 2
Much has been made in the press over the last few days of 🇩🇪 playing good cop to Macron‘s bad cop over the question of an Article 50 Extension at EUCO on 10 April. But 3

1.A very international Brexit.

Why a real-life ‘Citizen of the world’ voted Leave.

A thread to mark the endless attempts to stall and betray Brexit.

#Brexit #BrexitDay #BrexitDeal #BrexitShambles #BrexitEndgame #Remain #LeaveMeansLeave #LeaveMeansLeavemarch #Leave
2. I can’t help but laugh a but when I hear Remainers pointificate about how us Brexit voters are all ignorant, naïve, parochial, racist, backward, xenophobic etc...etc...etc... little-Englanders.
3.There are very few people who can use the term #globalcitizen or citizen-of-the-world as much a me

And the term is nonsense. It’s the multiculturalists, with their ‘more that unites us than divides us’ religious mantras, who are the naïve ones, who don’t understand the world.

1. Various establishment figures are ramping up their calls for another referendum. Skipping the well rehearsed points, like everything else they haven't thought it through. It wouldn't solve anything. #Brexit thread.
2. At this point, the only intelligible fair vote would have to be an exact re-run of 2016. What they want is to secure a slender victory that allows them to gloss over the whole affair. But it won't work. It wouldn't be an affirmative mandate for what the EU is.
3. If they managed to secure a remain vote, it would be a reluctant resignation to the fact that our establishment is not capable of self-governance and is lacking the talent and imagination to deliver meaningful change. That does not solve the inherent legitimacy problem.

Irrespective of how MPs vote this afternoon it’s EU leaders who have final say on an extension to the Brexit process. Will they/won’t they say yes? How long for + how punitive will conditions be? Like so many things to do with #Brexit the answer is: we don’t know for sure yet 1
French, Dutch, Spanish and Irish leaders have been talking tough this week: They won’t grant an extension unless the Prime Minister comes up with a very good reason, they say. It’s true: Eu leaders are frustrated, irritated and fatigued by the Brexit process BUT 2
EU leaders also have two specific audiences in mind these days when they take to the cameras on Brexit i) UK MPs whom the EU wishes to help pressure into voting for Theresa May’s negotiated deal or something else realistic and /3

Some very breathless reporting/reading of @MichelBarnier remarks y'day. So what is happening on #Brexit? Some thoughts on talking with both sides. 1/Thread
@MichelBarnier First Barnier. To be clear, it was absolutely orthodox. We respect UK red lines, but within those limits will give UK broadest ever FTA and Association Agreement. It's EXACTLY what he said on Aug 2 OpEd: "unprecedented in scope and depth." /2

ec.europa.eu/commission/new…
@MichelBarnier So why all the huffing and puffing, the sudden optimism about EU willingness and desire to cut a deal?

Well first, it's important to focus on what that 'deal' is in Oct/Nov - it's the withdrawal agreement.

Money. Citizens. Northern Ireland backstop. NOT Chequers. /2
