There is a summit this week in Ventotene, Italy where the first manifesto for a United Europe was drawn up at the end of the second world war by two Italian intellectuals (how I wish we still had some of them), Ernesto Rossi and Altiero Spinelli while imprisoned by the fascists. The meeting is symbolic for two reasons, the location and the fact that there will only be three largest EU members Germany, France and Italy. We will be absent.
Buzzfeed say Europe is already moving on from Brexit and I think this sums it up for me. They have given up on the UK and who can blame them.
