Our best hope after Brexit is a liberal younger generation – who might one day take us back in

As we prepare for life outside the EU, we must make sure our children don’t miss out on what we had

We’ve only gone and done it. We’re out! It took 1,317 days in the end, but yesterday was our last day as part of the European Union. Did we all have a happy Brexit Day? I’m sure we did.

For the first time in my life – and the first time for anyone born after 1 January 1973, for that matter – no more euros!... oh yeah, those came about later and we didn’t use them anyway. But hey, we can use miles again!... oh yeah, we kind of do. Hmmm... maybe our bananas will be more curved?

We’re taking back control. It’s all change from here. Who knows what the future holds?
