So after a lot of thought, this September and October, my spooky tales and written articles for various outlets will be focusing on witchcraft, and the subsequent persecutions of the Early Modern Period... /1
Partly, this is because next week I'm moving to the very heartland of witch persecutions in Europe - southern Germany. Just a few U-Bahn stops away lies a village at the heart of a tragic 17th century series of trials... /2
We mostly understand the persecution of witches as manifesting in the four great panics - Trier, Fulda, Bamberg and Wuerzberg - during the 16th and 17th centuries.

We also have to acknowledge that there were many trials and executions in rural areas...

On a bright, cold morning in April, 1933, a body was found in woods near the town of Baruth, outside Berlin. The man had been shot in the head, execution style. He was later identified as Erik Jan Hanussen. His murder was officially 'never solved'. /1
Forty-four years earlier, Hermann Steinschneider was born in Vienna to two performers. His upbringing was nomadic, taking in Germany, Austria & Italy as his parents travelled on tour.

As a young adult, he himself found himself as an illusionist, performing in Weimar Berlin. /2
To give himself a more mysterious air, and to combat prevailing antisemitism, he 'became' Erik Jan Hanussen, an aristocrat from Denmark. 

His act, involving mesmerism, magic tricks & 'clairvoyancy' was a hit - & his biggest fans were members of the fledgling Nazi Party. /3

Bit of criticism before for asking/suggesting for tips before, mostly from the pro-Tommy crowd, but some from elsewhere.

Well, I've got a couple of things to say in response...
First, I like to think I make some mildly enjoyable content, and have spent a significant amount of time on the stuff I've written and posted over the years -

I don't think it's unreasonable to accept small tips, if folks enjoy it. It's certainly not 'begging'.
Second, you are under no obligation to tip! It's entirely your choice! You can even tell me to '@#£& off', if you're feeling cheeky!

There's no expectation, and I've got a wide range of gigs going on trying to make a living.

@mrmarchee @garrygreen888 @moonhare77 @carolecadwalla Report here is obfuscation. Issue isn't the total collective campaign spending, it’s about who broke the law & how. #Remain campaigns were fined for failing to submitting returns correctly. They didn’t act fraudulently to overspend. The largest fine was to Lib Dems, £18K. 1/
@mrmarchee @garrygreen888 @moonhare77 @carolecadwalla Carole Cadwalladr & others have reported extensively: The #Leave campaigns have been found guilty of serious breaches of the law by the Electoral Commission and the ICO and are now under criminal investigation for other offences. 2/
@mrmarchee @garrygreen888 @moonhare77 @carolecadwalla Vote Leave – Official Leave campaign: Fined £61K by Electoral Commission for colluding with BeLeave & overspending the £7m limit by £500k. They paid #AIQ this amount for Facebook ads in the name of BeLeave. Vote Leave now referred to Met/NCA for further suspected fraud. 3/

New @cage_warwick paper with @EleAla on "Who is NOT voting for Brexit anymore?" Using local area estimates from @chrishanretty based on data from a 20k @Survation poll we study how the level & geography of support for Leave has changed since 2016... goo.gl/CkUkgD 1/
Swing away from #Leave is widespread and happening broadly across the UK, specifically in England, Wales, Cornwall and the North. Overall estimated level of support for Leave is 6 percentage points lower across UK, but masks significant heterogeneity. 2/
We follow similar approach as in earlier work with @essobecker and @DennisNovy to decompose the geographic variation to identify which factors are capturing the variation across the UK in the swing away from #Leave to #Remain.... 3/

@VictoriaLIVE @ProfRWinston @Aisleyne1 @BBCTwo @BBCNews Let's look at A's reasons for voting #Leave:
"Us being able to fix our our problems. I think the #NHS, our teachers are underpaid, and I believe that we put so much money into the EU."
a) We CAN fix our own problems. Public services are 100% managed by own Govt —

/1.
@VictoriaLIVE @ProfRWinston @Aisleyne1 @BBCTwo @BBCNews — except the bits Govt privatised! The EU does not interfere with how our Govt runs the NHS or its education policy or the police force, etc.

The competences of the EU are defined by treaty. They tend to be issues that extend beyond national borders.

/2.
@VictoriaLIVE @ProfRWinston @Aisleyne1 @BBCTwo @BBCNews Typical areas include trade, environment & security.

Think about it. When was the last time you heard the #NHS complaining to the EU abt underfunding? Or schools complaining the the EU abt kids going hungry? Never. They complain to our Govt cos' OUR GOVT is responsible.

#Remain voted for:

A say in whether the EU enlarges or not.
A say in if the EU federalises or remains a union of independent states.
A say in if there is an EU army.
Being the financial capital through which the majority of € is traded while still keeping the £.

#BrexitReality
#EnlargedEurope

The UK has taken the lead in efforts for EU enlargement. It pushed for the inclusion of Eastern European states. It pushed for Turkey to get its shit together so that it could join (which it made very slow progress with, and has largely been undone by Erdogan)
After #Brexit, the UK will have no influence on EU enlargement. In fact, as setting the EU as a rival, every country that joins the EU will a) strengthen the EU, and b) unravels any trade deals that the UK will have made with that country, isolating it further.
