Brexit Cliff Edge Walk - Eastbourne Circular on 29/3/2019

This was the day that the UK was to leave the EU and no-one knew if we would leave with Theresa May's deal or no deal. Like MPs there are divided views within the group about what should happen concerning BREXIT. In the event the deadline to leave the EU was extended. During the walk the result of Theresa May's meaningful vote 3 result came in and it was again rejected although by a smaller majority. Currently the cliff edge will be 12th April 2019 which we might fall over or, there again, we might move inland away from the cliff edge.

The weather was very good with fantastic views and the walk was enjoyed by all - thanks Chris for organising it.
