One of the delights of editing this site is that I can be having a really crap day and then all of a sudden a wee gem lands in my inbox.
And so it was last night, when composer Amy Collins sent me this brilliant animated video of her song, Stay with EU. Her words have been brought to life by the BAFTA nominated animators Brothers McLeod.
I love it. I hope you enjoy it as much.

Well, that was a waste of 3 minutes of my life.
Mind you I would love to know why ‘at least’ 7 of the character faces out of the 28 that replace the national flags show people of obvious non-national ethnic origin, is this what the producer of this song thinks – that at least 25% of the European countries whose flags are shown are actually mainly non-national ethnic origins are actually represented as being THEIR normal?
Talk about a stupid own-goal, this just shows the utter contempt that the producer has for the national ethnic majorities throughout Europe.

Don’t you have some YouTube videos to go and comment on as well? You can waste even more than 3 minutes there, and tell everyone all about it.
Joyous celebration of the EU, that’s what I like to hear. Ardent remainer Tracey Ullman has made a similar video

Imagine the dancers in full national costumes, and when she sings “they don’t know about us, they’ve never heard of love”, cut to Gove, Rees Mogg etc

Got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning, did you? Anything that cheers Caron Lindsay up has my support!
So by your logic William Roy showing people of ‘obvious non-national ethnic origin’ (whatever the hell that means) is to show ‘utter contempt for national ethnic majorities’? I thinkl that says far more about you than it does about the video to be honest.
We will have achieved Liberal Democracy when we see humans not colour
By the way loved the song. Why do people visit sites that will annoy them?
I rather liked the song. Pity the remain campaign didn’t capture some of this sense of hope and joy in 2016.
Cringe.

Chill Bill.
Well done with the maths progress by the way. Keep it up.
I have a friend who is an out and out Brexiteer, UKIP 10 times over etc. He was genuinely worried yesterday that us Remainers were going to get another Referendum etc etc. Said he hoped we would keep quiet for six months!! It was the march and publicity that caused this seeming acute anxiety. Lets keep it up, it is going well
Oh – grow up William.
