“If a species is becoming out of sync that potentially leads to a breakdown within food chains, and subsequently species struggling not only to survive but thrive.”

This article shows how climate change is a good metaphor for Brexit. Brexit is an extreme event. It is putting us out of sync with our European neighbours. The UK will survive but it is extremely doubtful that it will "thrive".Everyday brings news of the adverse impacts of Brexit
on various sectors- yesterday the Medical Devices sector- all asking for preferential treatment & aghast at the stupidity of adding a costly & cumbersome level of UK regulations to their business. Sainsbury's empty shelves in Grantham yesterday showed a breakdown in food supply
blamed on C19 by Brexiters but not experienced by our European neighbours. Our isolation will make it far more difficult to deal with global events such as climate change. Our PM has no long term view & choses his ministers for their inability to be effective rivals. The UK may
discover that the hated EU bureaucrats- who patiently unravelled the worst bureaucracy of all, the bureaucracy of borders- are rather better at long term planning than UK politicians. Brexit will continue to inflict on the country extreme political events- some perhaps for
the better if it leads to PR & a #ProgressiveAlliance - unfortunately unlikely due to the mediocrity & delusions of the opposition- mostly for the worse as shown by the attacks on democracy & morality in a country where the RNLI is booed for saving lives at sea, the BBC has been
cowed, the NHS is secretly emptied of its valuable assets for the profits of rapacious healthcare companies and government's contempt for Parliament (& more generally for any rules restricting its powers) is openly displayed.
