One of the most popular british blogs on brexit is Chris Greys "brexit" blog.

Going for 10+ years, it's well written but as a European outsider looking in, the underlying logic is utterly bonkers and ironically, provides an insight into why the UK is still in a massive mess.

They are not called USAF bases, they are called RAF bases, but little of what happens in them is controlled by the British government.
