The nova, a white dwarf in a star system known only as V1213 Cen, in the southern sky in the direction of the constellation Centaurus, would have been visible only to observers with binoculars.

20:05The Guardian view on UK Brexit policy: this time the lady is for turning | Editorial - Guardian Unlimited LeadersThe government’s latest position paper abandons the fantasy that Britain can go it alone. Not before time, ministers are having a close encounter with reality The orthodoxy says that few things are more humiliating for a leader than a U-turn.

In some circumstances, a U-turn can be – and can even be publicly respected as – an act of common sense (...) -- Brexit, Court of justice of the European Union, Theresa May, UK news, European Union, Foreign policy, Article 50, Politics, Law
