Amongst other things, this almost certainly marks the end of school trips by EU schools, because many of the students will only have ID cards, not passports, and schools won't want to impose the cost and hassle on parents.
Here's what the 2019 General Election result would have looked like under the purest form of PR, i.e. by distributing MPs only according to the number of votes won by each party...
Of course, there are some necessary simplifications. For example I used the vote share across the whole of the UK, but a PR system might want to allocate MPs separately for each of the 4 nations.
But it gives you some idea of what it might look like.
In theory, one could literally let the maths dictate the total number of MPs in the House of Commons. If you set the cutoff point that a fractional MP gets rounded up to 1 if the fraction's > 0.5, you might end up with around 645-655 MPs elected. It would fall in a narrow range.
From today, you'll need a "UK" sticker on your car when driving abroad.
Why did the Tories change it? Because they can.
Is it Brexit-related? No. The UK proactively requested to change its 2-letter country code at the UN. Nothing forced the change. gov.uk/guidance/drivi…
As an official government page confessds, no rules have changed. It's purely a cosmetic thing. But it's still a legal requirement forcing millions of people to go to the expense & hassle of getting "UK" stickers for no reason except to please Tory zealots. …sport-goods-to-and-from-eu.dft.gov.uk/faqs/when-do-y…
It hasn't been long since the last pointless change either.
Grant Shapps launched a new-style number plate ("now with extra jingoism") back in January to mark the 1-year anniversary of leaving the EU.
For those saying "it's not the time to talk about Brexit" with reference to Labour, if not now, when on Earth!?
We have visible chaos. Shortages in shops. Supply chains collapsing. Front page tabloid headlines referencing the B-word. And polling showing a majority blame Brexit.
And thanks to all that oven-ready nonsense, people associate Brexit pretty much 100% with Boris Johnson.
It's the easiest target any political party has been presented with, ever.
So hit it! Then hit it again!
Sure, Labour voted for the deal under duress because no-deal was worse.
