December 29, 2020 by Swindon for Europe

I read in a Guardian article (see link below) that the Govt have announced that we will not be sticking with Erasmus, an instead they will set up our own British scheme named after Alan Turing. Clearly, it would be great if they do set up a scheme to pay for British students to study …

November 2, 2020 by Swindon for Europe

We had a pretty exciting weekend with lots of street action.

Maintaining our European Food standards

September 25, 2020 by Swindon for Europe

Stop No-deal: Sort Covid-19 first

September 4, 2020 by Swindon for Europe

Divide and conquer, so said Julius Caesar. A well known phrase, and yet it seems the government haven’t understood that it can be used against us as well as by us.

Keeping in touch whilst standing on the sidelines

December 30, 2020 By Devizes for Europe

Brexit has always been an impossibility, but how it unfolds is unpredictable. We do not know how long it will take for the wider public to fully appreciate what they have lost. Nor do we know how the political landscape will unfold for the United Kingdom, but we can guess that it’s going to be …
