Somehow, I'm still pretending this is not real in my head. I feel a lot like Ian McEwan, who writes, "Brexit, the most pointless, masochistic ambition in our country's history, is done".
I still cannot understand voting yourself away from a union built on the rubble of a wartorn and divided Europe, a union based on solidarity, freedom, human rights, and peace. A union in which historic perennial enemies became friends and wars became unthinkable.
I'm trying to cling to my hopes for Scotland.
