Referendums in Britain and Brexit

Referendums in Britain and BrexitReferendums in BritainReferendums in Britain are usually held at a national, regional or local level. National referendums are traditionally very rare due to the principle of parliamentary sovereignty. Until the latter half of the twentieth century, referendums were widely seen in British politics as "unconstitutional" and an "alien device". So far, only three national referendums have ever been held across the whole of the United Kingdom: in 1975, 2011 and most recently in 2016.In 2000, the Labor government led by Tony Blair set out a framework for the running of all future referendums when the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000 or PPERA was passed, creating and giving the Electoral Commission responsibility for running all elections and such future referendums. The act also permitted the appointment of a "chief counting officer" to oversee all future UK-wide referendums which would be held by the chairperson of the Electoral Commission. For many people, the best-known referendum in Britain is “Brexit”, which is the popular term for the prospective withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. In the referendum on 23 June 2016, 51.9% of the participating UK electorate voted to leave the EU. On 29 March 2017, the British government invoked Article 50 of the Treaty on the European Union. Article 50 is a plan for any country that wishes to exit the EU. It was created as part of the Treaty of Lisbon - an agreement signed up to by all EU states which became law in 2009. The UK is thus on course to leave the EU on 29 March 2019.The European Union and BritainEurope is a collection of countries that used to fight a lot. For example, in World War II countries within Europe fought against one another, and it greatly hurt the continent. So after WWII, many countries felt it was important to integrate European countries — starting with the coal and steel industries and then expanding to a broader set of trade issues.Countries often make rules about things coming into their countries. For example, if you wanted to make a car in France and ship it to Britain, you would have to pay a tariff to Britain to do so. Western Europe has dozens of countries, each with its own trade, immigration, and economic policies. Trying to navigate these rules was very inefficient. The European Union essentially started from a question: What if each country had the same rules? What if all the barriers came down? And that’s what the EU did.Almost every Western European country joined the group to merge their economic rules in 1993. They did this by allowing people, goods, services, and capital to move freely between member countries. It's kind of like how states in the US work. The EU has helped foster long periods of economic prosperity, and it's helped keep the region at peace.Also, there are challenges to cooperation. When something bad happens, it affects everyone. The appealing part of the EU was that it made it easier for European countries to share in one another’s prosperity. But, as with any union, cooperation means weathering downturns together — and that hasn’t always been so easy.Take, for example, the 2008 financial crisis. Many economists agree that the European Central Bank failed to respond effectively, leading to a recession that was much more severe than it needed to be. Unemployment rose, and tax revenue fell. Banks needed bailouts, and debt in a number of EU countries soared. Seeing the EU in such crisis made some have second thoughts about being yoked to it — and increased worry among wealthy countries (like the UK) that they might have to help bail out less wealthy countries down the line.And some Brits didn't like that many foreigners were moving to Britain after the EU was formed. The new European Union made it much easier for citizens of one country to migrate to another. And Britain’s foreign-born population skyrocketed after it joined. Experts see two main forces driving this trend:1.The EU expanded to include post-communist countries in the mid-2000s, andpeople in those countries were poorer. Many of their citizens immigrated towealthier countries — like the United Kingdom.2.The 2008 market crash hit some European countries especially hard. When peoplefrom those countries couldn’t find a job at home, their citizens went to find jobs in other countries — like the United Kingdom.Tensions over immigration have risen significantly in Britain in recent years. Twenty years ago, barely anyone thought immigration or race relations was one of the country’s most important issues. However, in a survey conducted last year, 45 percent of Brits identified "immigration/race relations" as a top issue facing the country. Seventy-seven percent of Brits today believe that immigration levels into the country should be reduced.T he Effect of “Brexit”EconomyDavid Cameron and many other senior figures who wanted to stay in the EU predicted an immediate economic crisis if the UK voted to leave and it is true that the pound slumped the day after the referendum and remains around 10% lower against thedollar and 15% down against the euro. This means that people travelling overseas from the UK have found their pounds are buying fewer euros or dollars after the Brexit vote. Even if the pound regains some of its value, currency experts expect it in the longer term to remain at least 10% below where it was when the referendum happened. Moreover, exports should get a boost as UK goods will be cheaper, but imported goods will get more expensive - some price rises for food, clothing and homeware goods have been seen.However, the UK economy estimated to have grown 1.8% in 2016, second to Germany's 1.9% among the world's G7 leading industrialized nations. The UK economy has continued to grow at almost the same rate in 2017. Inflation has risen since June 2016 to stand at 3%, but unemployment has continued to fall, to stand at a 42 year low of 4.3%. So far, it seems that the current situation is much better than predicted, but what will happen in the future is also not easy to predict.There was an early post-referendum cut in interest rates, which has helped keep mortgage and other borrowing rates low. There are few signs yet that rising inflation have worried the Bank of England enough to consider raising interest rates. But if that happened it would make mortgages and loans more expensive to repay - but would be good news for savers.ImmigrationPrime Minister Theresa May has said one of the main messages she has taken from the Leave vote is that the British people want to see a reduction in immigration. She has said this will be a focus of Brexit negotiations as she remains committed to getting net migration - the difference between the numbers entering and leaving the country - down to a "sustainable" level, which she defines as being below 100,000 a year.The rate of increase in the size of Britain's population has slowed significantly since the Brexit vote. This has largely been driven by an increase in emigration from the UK by citizens of Poland and the other East and Central European countries. There were still 246,000 more people coming to live in the UK than leaving in the year to March 2017, according to the latest estimates - some way above the government's target of 100,000.Further ImplicationsThe EU made trade with Europe much easier for the US, and it also made it easier to ask Europe for geopolitical help. Instead of talking to dozens of different countries, American officials could go to the EU and negotiate with a large chunk of the continent. Now Britain may not be part of that discussion.Britain’s departure could have ripple effects throughout Europe, too. Poor economic performance and inconsistent handling of the migration crisis have driven majorities in many countries — including France and Spain. It’s possible that they’d like a UK-style chance to vote on quitting the EU.Britain’s vote is a big deal. But it could be the start of something bigger, too. This might be the first of many political expressions of discontent among EU countries, potentially causing the disintegration of Europe.。

Welcome to Ask About Britain.Feifei: 我们收到听友 Joanne 发给我们的邮件，她想知道英国的邮政编码是怎么一回事儿？Helen: Joanne is a bit confused about the UK postcode system and wonders what postcodes like NW2 3AL mean?Feifei: 有关英国邮政编码的历史，我们采访了国家邮政局的历史解说员 Chris Taft.Helen: First I asked him when the postcode system came into use in the UK. InsertAn earlier form of the postcode system goes back to the 1850s, into 1856. The modern postcode system, the postcode system we use today, goes back to a trial that took place in 1959. It was then used more widely in England from the mid 1960s and used across the country from then on.Feifei: 原来邮政编码的历史并不是很悠久。

英国邮编

A quirk remained: the central Newport area was allocated NPT, at a similar time to Norwich becoming NOR and Croydon becoming CRO, and surrounding areas were, as today, allocated NP1–NP8. NPT lasted until the end of 1984 when it was recoded NP9.[19]Girobank's GIR 0AA, the last domestic postcode with a fully alphabetical outward code, no longer exists in the Royal Mail's PAF system,[20] but remains in active use by the bank's owners, currently Santander UK.[21]Adaptation of earlier systems into national system[]When the national postcode system was introduced, many existing postal districts were incorporated into it, so that postcodes in Toxteth (Liverpool 8) start with L8. The districts in both Manchester and Salford gained "M" postcodes, so "Salford 7" became M7, etc. In other cases, the district numbers were replaced with unrelated numbers. The old coding lives on in a small number of street signs with "Salford 7" etc., at the bottom. In Glasgow many of its G-prefixed numbers are not used as C1 became G1, W1 became G11, N1 became G21, E1 became G31, S1 became G41, SW1 became G51, and so on. In London (as postally defined) 1917-created postal districts are mapped unchanged to those of today but its much enlarged administrative area, Greater London was created in April 1965. From that month the remaining 60% of Greater London's area has postcodes referring to 13 other post towns.GB postcodes available as Open data[]Prior to 1 April 2010 the Royal Mail licensed use of the postcode database for a charge of about £4000 per year.[22] Following a campaign and a government consultation in2009[23] the Ordnance Survey released Code-Point Open, detailing every postcode in Great Britain together with a geo-code for re-use free of charge under an attribution-only licence Open Government Licence as part of OS OpenData.Postcodes linked to a variety of UK geographies[]The Office for National Statistics (ONS Geography) maintains and publishes a series of freely available, downloadable postcode products that link all current and terminated UK postcodes to a range of administrative, health, statistical and other geographies using the Code-Point Open grid reference.Overview[]The postcodes are alphanumeric and between six and eight characters long. They are divided into two parts separated by a single space. Those two parts are the outward code and the inward code. The outward code includes the postcode area andthe postcode district. The inward code includes the postcode sector and the postcode unit. Examples of postcodes include "SW1W 0NY", "PO16 7GZ", "GU16 7HF", or "L1 8JQ".Outward code[]The outward code is the part of the postcode before the single space in the middle. It is between two and four characters long. A few outward codes are non-geographic, not divulging where mail is to be sent. Examples of outward codes include "L1", "W1A", "RH1", "RH10" or "SE1P".Inward code[]The inward part is the part of the postcode after the single space in the middle. It is three characters long. The inward code assists in the delivery of post within a postal district. Examples of inward codes include "0NY", "7GZ", "7HF", or "8JQ".[24][24]Postcode area[]The postcode area is part of the outward code. The postcode area is either one or two characters long and is all letters. Examples of postcode areas include "L" for Liverpool, "RH" for Redhill and "EH" for Edinburgh. A postal area may cover a wide area, for example "RH" covers north Sussex, and "BT" (Belfast) covers the whole of Northern Ireland.Postcode district[]The postcode district is the outward code. It is one or two digits (and sometimes a final letter) that are added to the end of the postcode area. The outward code is between two and four characters long. Examples of postcode districts include "W1A", "RH1", "RH10" or "SE1P".Postcode sector[]The postcode sector is made up of the postcode district, the single space, and the first character of the inward code. It is between four and six characters long (including the single space). Examples of postcode sectors include "SW1W 0", "PO16 7", "GU16 7", or "L1 8", "CV1 4".Postcode unit[]The postcode unit is two characters added to the end of the postcode sector. Each postcode unit generally represents a street, part of a street, a single address, a group of properties, a single property, a sub-section of the property, an individual organisation or (for instance Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) a subsection of the organisation. Thelevel of discrimination is often based on the amount of mail received by the premises or business. Examples of postcode units include "SW1W 0NY", "PO16 7GZ", "GU16 7HF", or "L1 8JQ".Validation[]The format is as follows, where A signifies a letter and 9 a digit:Notes:∙As all formats end with 9AA, the first part of a postcode can easily be extracted by ignoring the last three characters∙Areas with only single-digit districts: BR, FY, HA, HD, HG, HR, HS, HX, JE, LD, SM, SR, WC, WN, ZE (although WC is always subdivided by a further letter, e.g. WC1A). ∙Areas with only double-digit districts: AB, LL, SO.∙Areas with a district '0' (zero): BL, BS, CM, CR, FY, HA, PR, SL, SS (BS is the only area to have both a district 0 and a district 10).∙The following central London single-digit districts have been further divided by inserting a letter after the digit and before the space: EC1–EC4 (but not EC50), SW1, W1, WC1, WC2, and part of E1 (E1W), N1 (N1C and N1P), NW1 (NW1W) and SE1 (SE1P).∙The letters QVX are not used in the first position.∙The letters IJZ are not used in the second position.∙The only letters to appear in the third position are ABCDEFGHJKPSTUW when the structure starts with A9A.∙The only letters to appear in the fourth position are ABEHMNPRVWXY when the structure starts with AA9A.∙The final two letters do not use the letters CIKMOV, so as not to resemble digits or each other when hand-written.∙Post code sectors are one of ten digits: 0 to 9 with 0 only used once 9 has been used in a post town, save for Croydon and Newport (see above).。

The special festivals in Britain

The special festivals in the BritainThere are many festivals in the Britain, in this paper, we just introduce you several special and interesting ones. They are as followed:●Edinburgh International Festival (爱丁堡国际艺术节)The post-war years have been a great growth in the number of arts festivals in Britain and other European countries. Among them the Edinburgh International Festival has foremost events of its kind in the world. This is not surprising because everything in the arts, if it is first-class, is potentially an Edinburgh Festival attraction. On most evenings during the festival there are as many as six events to choose from on the official program: symphony concerts（交响音乐会）, ballets, plays, recitals（独唱）—all given by the finest artistes in the world. The festival was inaugurated in 1947. Glyndebourne Opera（格林德本歌剧团）, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra（维也纳爱乐乐团）, the Old Vic Theatre （老维多利亚剧院）and Sadler’s Wells Ballet （塞德勒的威尔斯芭蕾舞团）were only a few of the participants of this first venture. The festival was a success, and has been held annually ever since.The festival is quit international in its character giving as a rule a varied representation of artistic production from a number of countries, and over the past few years it has a definite theme, that is the work of one or two composers studied in depth.For instance:In 1961, it gave a comprehensive view of Arnold Schoenberg.In 1962, a similar treatment was given to the music of the famous former Soviet composer Dmitri.In 1969, the theme of the festival was a country—Italy.The festival has done a great deal in the development of arts in Scotland. In addition to establishing the Scottish Festival Chorus, it helped to develop the Scottish opera and the Scottish National Orchestra which started by giving only occasional light concerts in the festival with Mahler’s massive Eighth Symphony.One of the reasons for the festival’s success in that it is easy for the visitors to make their arrangements, since Festival programs are published as early as March, and the booking opens soon afterwards, at the beginning of April. The festival Society which takes care of all these matters not only arranges for the visitor’s tickets but also reserves accommodation.●The Maypole（五月花柱）The Maypole is an ancient fertility emblem belonging to the beginning of summer, and it also represents a tree; indeed, at one time it was a tree, brought in from the woods with ceremony, and set up on thevillage green. In the darkness of the early morning, the young people went out on May Day and cut down a tall, young tree, lopped off most of its branches, leaving only a few at the top, and so brought it home, to be adorned with flowers and garlands, and to serve as a center for their dances.Sometimes the parish possessed a standing Maypole, a permanent shaft which remained in adorned when May Day came round. A few still stand, or rather, their descendants do on the not much more than fifteen years. After that, it begins to rot at the foot and has to be renewed. These permanent poles are usually very tall. That at Welford-on-Avon(艾玛河畔威尔福特) with its bright red, circular that at Barwick-in-Elmet（埃尔迈巴威克）, near Leeds（利兹）, is even taller, down the Maypole is re-painted, and ever so often, when it becomes necessary, replaced, and its four garlands renewed.There are still a good many Maypoles today. Most schools have them, on May Day, or on some convenient day during month, and some villages maintain the old tradition, especially in places where there are standing Maypoles.●Student RagsStudent Rags is a well established practice associated particularly with older Universities of students mounting some sort of pageant andcollecting money for charity. They think up themes and decorate a float (a truck with a flat loading area) to represent their concept – perhaps a pirate ship, and operating theatre, a coalmine or something topical and humorous. Then the group of students associated with that float dresses up to sustain the impression.The Rag Day is often held in February when it s still decidedly cold, but this does not seem to deter the girls from dressing in the flimsiest of garments as mermaids(美人鱼) or grass-skirted Nawacan maiden s（纳瓦肯少女）, or the lads from turning out as cave men and the like. There is usually a magazine for the occasion，its contents being mainly humorous and vulgar, for students feel that they are given license for some mild misbehavior. In this connection they indulge in certain stunts, for example the kidnapping of local who rather like the publicity anyway, or climbing public buildings，for example to put a chamber pot on top of a steeple. The authorities can be vexed with the more outrageous of the capers, for example painting statues, for it is expensive to clean off the paint, but lesser liberties such as throwing bags of flour at policemen are tolerated.So, students let off steam and the public is entertained and contributes by buying magazines or putting money in collecting boxes. And eventually the cash collected finds its way into local charitable organizations.The students usually have a Grand Ball, which is often fancy dress too, and this finishes off strenuous day which itself had marked the culmination of sometimes weeks of preparation.●St. Valentine’s DayI’ll be your sweetheart, if you will be mine,All of my life I’ll be your ValentineThe first Valentine of all was a bishop, a Christian martyr, who before he was put to death by Romans sent a note of friendship to his jailer’s blind daughter.The Christmas Church took this day February 14 as an old pagan festival when young Roman maidens threw decorated love missives into an urn to be drawn out by their boy friends.In the last century, sweethearts of both sexes would spend hours fashioning a homemade card or present. The results of some of those painstaking efforts are still preserved in museums. Lace, ribbon, wild flowers, colored paper, feathers and shells, all were brought into use.If the aspiring (or perspiring) lover had difficulty in thinking up a message or rhyme there was help at hand. He could dip into The Quiver of Love or St. Valentine’s Sentimental Writer, these booksgiving varied selections to suit everyone’s choice. Sam Weller, of Pickwick Paper fame, took an hour and a half to write his “Valentine”, with much blotting and crossing out and warnings from his father not to descend to poetry.Nowadays, the Valentine is for the boys and girls, sweethearts and lovers, husbands and wives, friends and neighbors, and even the office staff to exchange greetings of affection, undying love or satirical comment. And the quick, slick, modern way to do it is with a Valentine card.There are all kinds, to suit all tastes, the lush satin cushions, boxed and be-ribboned, the entwined hearts, gold arrows, roses, cupids, doggerel rhymes, and sick sentiment -it’s all there. The publishers made sure it was there three weeks in advance.In his magazine, Punch, as long ago as 1880 he pointed out that no sooner was the avalanche of Christmas cards swept away than the publishers began to fill the shops with their novel valentines, full of “hearts and Darts, Loves and Doves and Floating Fays and Flowers.”So in the 20th century, when there are no longer any bars to communication between the sexes, the love missives of an older, slower time, edged carefully over the counters by the publishers and shopkeepers, still surge through the letter boxes.●The Shrove TuesdayOne of the main events of Shrove Tuesday at Olney in Bucking-hamshire is the pancake race. This race is said to have been first run there in 1445, and to have continued intermittently ever since, with occasional lapses and revivals. One such lapse occurred, for obvious reason, during the Second World War, but in 1948 the custom was restarted and has not since suffered interruption.The competitors are housewives who must be inhabitants of Olney, or the nearby Warrington. The rules also require them to wear aprons and to cover their head with a hat or scarf. The course to be run is from the village to the parish church, about four hundred and fifteen yards. A bell rings twice before the race, once to warn the women assemble in the square，each one carrying a frying pan；the other is rung to start the running.The pancakes have to be tossed three times during the race, and some, inevitably land in the road, but this doesn’t disqualify the runner, who is allowed to pick it up and toss it again.At the church door, the Vicar waits to greet the breathless women, and to award the winner and the runner-up with prayer books. The leading vicar has the right to kiss the winner and get her pancake. The pans are laid round the font in the church, and a short service of blessing is held.●FiresFairs can still be found all over England, although many have been disappeared even during the last thirty years.The Trinity fair, at Southwold, Suffork, from being an occasion of buying and selling in the High Street is now an extensive pleasure and amusement fir held on the Sough Green, and some of the more demure of inhabitants have several times unsuccessfully endeavored to get it abolished. On one occasion the municipal authorities and police were drawn up across the street to bar ingress to the fair people, but latter were equal to the occasion, and their huge steam road engine bore slowly down upon the line of officials, who thought it better clear out of the way.Sherborne in Dorset holds a pack Monday Fair. This fair was first held in 1490, and is now the sole survivor of the three great fairs that were once held in Sherbone. There is a curious custom in connection with this fair. At Midnight on evening beforehand bands of boys and girls with linked arms rush through the streets blowing horns, whistling, ratting tin kettles and tooting to make a terrific bray of discordant sound, and thus usher in the fair.Teddy Rowe’s band is the name of a lively and noisy parade, which until 1964, regularly ushered in Pack Monday Fair. This Fair is held on the Monday following Old Michaelmas Day (October 10th); it is really St. Michael’s Fair, but it is far better known by its secondaryname of Pack Monday Fair. In the very early hours of the morning, soon after midnight, young people of both sexes marched through the sleeping town, blowing horns, bugles and whistles, hanging upon tin trays and frying-pans, and generally making as much discordant noise as possible. This was Teddy Rowe’s Band, which is locally believed to have heralded the Fair thus for nearly five centuries.Tradition says that the custom began in 1490 when, after the completion of the great fan vault in the nave of the Abbey Church, Abbot Peter Ramsam gave his masons a well-earned holiday, telling them to pack their tools and then go out and enjoy themselves. This they did with enthusiasm. They marched in triumph through the streets, blowing horns, and giving vent to their high spirits by shouting and marking cheerful noises of all kinds. In the years that followed, the town’s people are said to have repeated the lively Monday Fair. The Fair itself is supposed to have gained this name from the packing of the mason’s subsequent departure from the town.Whether this is the true explanation of the custom or not, it seems clear that Teddy Rowe’s Band existed for several centuries, and survived more than one attempt to suppress it. Now, however, its future is extremely uncertain. The parade was held as usual in 1963, but because of hooliganism and malicious damage on that occasion, it was banned by the police in1964, and this ban has since been annuallyrepeated. Only time will show whether, as now seems very likely, Sherborne has seen the last of Teddy Rowe and his customs elsewhere, this one will reappear in due course perhaps in a modified form.Until the middle of the last century London had its great Charter Fair at Smithfield, but that has now vanished, as have also the famous Gingerbread Fairs in Birmingham. If we bear in mind that the original purpose of these was the sale famous, then we can understand the origin of these names and others, such as Chertsey’s Onion Fair, which is fast vanishing but which was once one of the greatest markets near London. Perhaps an enlightened Urban Council will one day revive this Surrey festival. There is also the famous Nottingham Goose Fair.These are some of the interesting festivals which are part of English culture of the Britain. Many other festivals which make the English life more colorful exit in the Britain. These festivals can reflect part of the characteristic of the British, helping us to understand the British better.。
