Provincial West German vegetable market, 1981:

Me: (confidently) "Ein halbes Kilo Bruesselsprossen bitte."

No-nonsense stallholder: "Wie bitte was?"

Me: (less confidently) "Err ... Bruesselsprossen?"

Stallholder "Was denn? Sprossen aus Bruessel?"

Me: "Nee. Die kleinen gruenen Kohlkoepfe." (Make shape with fingers) "So gross."

Stallholder: "Ach! Rosenkohl!"


Rose cabbage! Which is what they are, when you see them growing on the stalks, of course.

A logical race, the Hun.

Europe has watched on in horror at the chaos attempting to leave the EU has created in the UK.
All those countries that were initially excited at the prospect of leaving at the start of the Brexit process have come to realise the sense in remaining a member.

Leaving the EU has led directly to us in the UK finally electing the strongest and most stable democratic government in Europe. Meanwhile the far right, the far left, the racists, the Jew haters, they've have all been consigned to the oblivion of protesting on social media, where they belong.

Elsewhere, however, in the EU:

Germany is to tighten its laws against anti-Semitic hate crimes in the wake of last month's failed attack on a synagogue by a far-Right gunman.

“I am ashamed that Jews no longer feel safe in Germany and that so many are even thinking of leaving the country,” Christine Lambrecht, the justice minister, told German MPs.
