It's no longer England ...



There's nothing more we can do
Cherry said - 

It was the day before the Referendum - 

Cherry had sensed my desperation - 

I'll be there at the count she said - you know what it's like round here

I thought of the woman in Anne's yoga class - 

We're losing our Britishness she'd said - 

I remembered the man outside Budgens -

He held his e cigarette like a stiletto - 

It's no longer England he'd said -
