Hungarian election winner Magyar vows to rebuild EU relationship after stunning defeat of Viktor Orbán - Europe live The Tisza leader said the electorate voted ‘not just for a change of government but for a change of the regime’

Magyar briefly draws on his time as a diplomat in Brussels as he talks about negotiations with other countries.

Unexpectedly, he says that at the time “the Brits were also part of the EU; let’s hope that they rejoin.”

@theresthistory.bsky.social hi TRIS. Long-term listener here. Would you be interested in doing the history of opera, and where it might go hence? I love it, but not interested in anything post mid 1950s. Is it dead??

I *so* agree with Robert. I don’t like the idea of a budgie in a cage. #theArchers

Sadly, too late for me. We can’t get BBC Sounds outside UK 😡 and can only record on cable within a week of transmission.

Very hard not to worry that the "Swiss deal" is the next Article XXIV of GATT, bandied about without really being understood properly.

Because, let me let you in on a little secret here, even the Swiss don't have the "Swiss deal".

Clarification needed.

This ridiculous cardboard cut-out of a character (Lynda, if it wasn’t obvious), annoys the hell out of me. I really don’t understand why people don’t tell her just to shut up. Is her faux-toity accent, class-cow-tow-ment and all that? #TheArchers

This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee.
What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18

I don’t get to the ‘can’t stand ‘ . I am disappointed in his lack of vision and stance, but very concerned by who/what he could be replaced by.

If Iceland votes to join EU, and Norway veers that way, there won’t be anything left of EFTA.

1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.
