Ode To Joy

Today I formally cease to be a citizen of the European Union, and this fills me with great sadnessThe arguments rage backwards and forwards on the merits of being in or out of the EU, and I am not going to rehearse them here. Time will tell. I comfort myself with the belief that that which truly unites people across international boundaries, goodwill, friendship, willingness to work for the common good, cannot be negated by a single act of folly.

And my very last act as an EU citizen is one of splendid defiance. Take it away Beethoven!
