If MPs vote down May’s Withdrawal Agreement and want to avoid no-deal then the only sensible option is to remain, without a referendum. Putting no-deal and remain to a referendum for some political justification risks a protest vote, which was what got us into this mess. https://twitter.com/JolyonMaugham/status/1068091757370445824

Fun puzzle. The route in the picture is 8/sqrt(3) + 8pi/3 = 12.9963..
Replying to @CNMMathsJam
And shorter routes exist. Obvious follow-on question: what’s the shortest route?
Replying to @CNMMathsJam
I’m pretty sure (but don’t know how to prove) that this is the shortest route, at 6/sqrt(3)+7*pi/3+2 = 12.794…

All the bricks are perpendicular to the curvature. (Which is good because they are holding up the arch.) It’s just that the road is angled relative to the (e.g.) railway above. Experiment with cutting paper tubes to see the effect.

(Hmm, the suggestion to experiment with paper tubes is dismissive and vague, sorry. I agree it’s a curious effect.)

Just had an epic dream where someone finds out that aliens are doing wholesale editing of our past in order to give us the right attitude for the future. Includes switching events between fictional and real. The participants are very confused to remember different bits.
