Australia and the Brexit Trade Plan



From BBC News - Australia knocks UK Brexit trade plan

Australia no longer as optimistic as the Australian High Commissioner, H.E. The Hon. Alexander Downer AC, has been in recent months?

Brexit Britain's 'creeping irrelevance' to Australia hinted at in foreign policy blueprint, Telegraph
Time for another "NewImages" campaign? Not just yet...



Cheer up with Purcell's "Fairest Isle", from King Arthur - "Fairest isle, all isles excelling"

Fairest Isle (King Arthur - H. Purcell) Score Animation


Fairest isle, all isles excelling,
Seat of pleasure and of love
Venus here will choose her dwelling, 
And forsake her Cyprian grove. 

Cupid from his fav'rite nation 
Care and envy will remove; 
Jealousy, that poisons passion, 
And despair, that dies for love. 

Gentle murmurs, sweet complaining, 
Sighs that blow the fire of love 
Soft repulses, kind disdaining, 
Shall be all the pains you prove. 

Ev'ry swain shall pay his duty,
Grateful ev'ry nymph shall prove; 
And as these excel in beauty, 
Those shall be renown'd for love.
