[Rosencrantz]

Frank Williams founder of Williams F1 team dies aged 79. RIP.

Amazing he lived so long after his accident let alone continued to lead his team to the heights of a brutally competitive sport/business for a number of years after. A true great of F1. Hopefully the Williams name will continue long into the future of F1 and regains some of the status the teams founder fought to claim.

It's amazing, When people's concerns about immigration and one of the reasons Brexit was voted for, It was because in some people's minds that being in the EU we were having lots of Eastern Europeans migrate here and Brexit would stop that, One thing they didn't factor is those crossing the channel weren't Eastern Europeans but people from across the world and the EU's FOM was for EU members and these poor souls were never part of that. RIP to them.
