Disquiet in Paris and London: We are living in an era of revolution

If Theresa May has a brief moment of respite from Brexit, she could do worse than hide away in some cosy corner of 10 Downing Street and read (or, perhaps re-read) A Tale Of Two Cities, Charles Dickens’ novel of intertwined lives in Paris and London during the French Revolution.
She is likely to find that the tale of blood, revolt, tears, and self-sacrifice resonates with what is happening in those two cities today.
