Brexit: and birth pains...

Congrats:
EN DIRECT - Royal baby : Alexander ou Spencer ? Le prénom du fils de Meghan et Harry se fait attendre - LCI
Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are "thrilled" about Royal Baby Sussex - YouTube

 But...
Since referendum vote... ...Meghan Markle has publicly gone out with Harry (since Nov 2016, it seems), engaged him, married him, and now had their first baby. One wonders how old the child will be before Brexit is ever over. Wonder how old that child's grandchildren will be...

      To adapt Bleak House by Dickens: "The little prince or princess, who was promised a new rocking horse when Brexit should be settled, has grown up, possessed himself or herself of a real horse, and trotted away into the other world."
