HALF MAST

I'm not sure why the flags outside the FE college were at half mast. I'd like to think it was a protest about the state of the nation, but since Hartlepool voted 70 percent in favour of Leave, I doubt it. Having said that, almost everyone I know seems to be in the 30 percent who voted Remain, but then they say we live in our own bubbles. I hope the youngsters are stirred up about it and this is a signal, but there was only a 65 percent turnout in the referendum and 59 percent in the last general election. Depressing.
