Unlike David Cameron, we can’t flee Brexit disaster | William Keegan.
Almost everywhere I go, people ask me: “Where is David Cameron?” I must admit that I occasionally bump into him. He gives a superficial impression of insouciance, but one hears on the grapevine that, privately, he regrets having called that referendum. Now we also hear that “friends” of Cameron say ....

Bury St Edmunds
Bury St Edmunds is a market town in the county of Suffolk, England, and formerly the county town of West Suffolk. It is the main town in the borough of St Edmundsbury and known for Bury St Edmunds Abbey located near the town centre. Bury is the seat of the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, with the episcopal see at St Edmundsbury Cathedral.
The town, originally called Beodericsworth, was built on a grid pattern formulated by Abbot Baldwin in around 1080. It is known for brewing and malting and for a British Sugar processing factory, where Silver Spoon sugar, one of Britain's biggest brands, is produced. Many large and small businesses are located in Bury, which traditionally has given Bury an affluent economy with low unemployment, with the town being the main cultural and retail centre for West Suffolk. Tourism is also a major part of the economy, plus local government.

John Betjeman - Something About Diss - 1964
BBC East documentary, John Betjeman gives his views on the landscape and architecture of Diss.
Sir John Betjeman on a tour around Diss in South Norfolk, alights from the train at Diss Station and immediately discovers the Jolly Porters, a railway inn. The camera follows his journey by taxi into Diss, showing industrial buildings such as the tar refinery and the gas works. Sir John proceeds along Victoria Road, commenting on the various ages of the buildings, especially the new developments and the Victorian Villas, until he reaches the Mere and Mere Street. Sir John takes the viewer on a tour of Diss, highlighting the buildings, shops and architectural features of interest. The film uses stills of Diss, from c. 1880, to show how Diss has changed over the century, or as often as not, how it has remained very similar.
The Corn Exchange is featured. Built in 1854 it was given to the Town Council by Rear Admiral A.H. Taylor in 1956. (Later there is film of Admiral Taylor entering his home, Mount Pleasant, with his son.) There are interior shots of the Corn Hall featuring a corn sale, one of the most important in the region with merchants present from Bury St. Edmunds and Norwich. A sequence shows St. Mary's Church, a mixture of 14th and 15th century architecture. A still of an engraving before Victorian restoration is compared with a similar contemporary shot. Scenes of the interior of the church are shown over which is heard Sir John reading a poem of a former Poet Laureate, John Skelton, who was Rector of Diss. From St. Mary's Church, Sir John goes in search of medieval Diss, discovering an unsung 15th century house on Drapers Row as well as the Greyhound Public House, Mount Street and the Saracen's Head. The film shows interior shots of the Greyhound, highlighting Jacobean Relief plaster work.
Sir John includes many non-conformist chapels and meeting houses in his tour, as well as notable Diss businesses. He highlights the interior of Bobby's the drapers showing the mahogany counter, oak shelves and Victorian carving, all from around 1850. Mr. Bobby can be seen at work. Sir John turns his attention to neglected buildings in Diss, showing how some older buildings have been left to fall into a state of dilapidation. He is also scathing about new developments. He likens a row of modern houses to Slough. Sir John also warns against using Diss for housing the London overspill. The film finishes with shots across the Mere.
