There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:

1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

Hello, Alan! My book is a biography of an Edwardian animal rights activist. She was a wonderful campaigner, but she had a woo side, believed in homeopathy and many other fringe ideas. The last chapter of the book is called Lizzy's Legacy, and I write briefly about what happened to some of her campaigns, and mentioning the NC seemed the appropriate way of rounding off the bit about homeopathy. I'm actually very proud of this book! available on Amazon and Kindle (a fact of which I am not proud, but how else to get a publisher?)

Don't yet know what the problem was but I raised a support ticket and it's now back up. I do have an automatic hourly monitor on all my websites so I do find out, but that's on my other machine...

Thanks for letting me know!

No chance, learned to scan such long ago. Number of words and presentation of subject good indicators of amount of research and reiteration, and thus time, involved!

We didn't do much - just submitted our response to the consultation.

I may be quoted in the papers tomorrow - I'll let you know.

What "rank" are you now, Alan? "Spokesman", "Campaigner" . . . ?

But I agree with Alan C., if you and others do not respond to such things nowt gets done.
