Leaving the EU without a formal agreement is not a serious option according to FT. The reason, the alternative is always worse.

FT writes:

“There should be no illusions about what this would mean in practice. If a no-deal Brexit occurred, it would take one of two forms. The first outcome would be where the two sides failed to come to any agreements and the talks ended in arcrimony…”.

“….Trade with the EU would switch to World Trade Organization terms, raising customs checks and tariffs overnight. Capital could flee the City of London, followed by a run on the pound. Food supplies would be at risk because of the uncertainty over certification and standards. The UK’s ports and airports would be thrown into disarray. The list is endless, and no amount of wishful thinking can overcome this reality”.

We have spent a few weeks at our place in Boulouris-sur-mee near Saint Raphael in Provence, South of France.

I love this place just below the Esterel mountains meeting the Mediterranean Sea.

This is paradise for us and we have spent parts of the year down here over a decade now.

The nature, the sea, the coast, the architecture, the restaurants, the bars, the food, the wine, the people, the house, our friends. This time also the 2018 World Cup in football and a French World Cup title.

Thus is truly a wonderful part of the world and even if I have worked most days of the stay this time, I still — like always – feel more relaxed when I leave than when I arrive. This is home.

There are really no limitations to what Zlatan Ibrahimovic can do.

When he had his awful knee injury playing for Manchester United at Old Traffors agaonst Anderlecht in the Europe League qurterfinal, everyone said it is over. The entire knee, everything that can break, was damaged. At an age of 36 Ibrahimovic decided to start over one lämore time Nd to conquer a new continent with his amazong football skills. And he has.

At 37 he has truly conquered United States and the Major League Soccer (MLS) playing for Los Angeles Galaxy. 12 goals and 4 assists in 12 games so far. There is only one, Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
