Sinossi

Between 2016 and 2019, a unique coalition assembled within British politics. Combining Corbynite campaigners and Conservative Cabinet ministers, celebrities and grassroots activists, seasoned political veterans and novice political amateurs, this disparate assemblage of forces was brought together by one aim: stopping Brexit. What began as the unfocused, often deeply emotional belief that Britain must not leave the EU morphed, fleetingly, into a mass movement: the People's Vote campaign, a mess of organisations united by the call for a second referendum on Europe.
From the stunts of youth campaigners and the online antics of new pro-EU influencers to the million-person marches of 2019 and the launch of new centrist parties, many people, serious and unserious alike, dedicated themselves to securing a new vote. A campaign premised on telling the nation that they had gotten it catastrophically wrong was always going to be hard, and it was only made more so by parliamentary maths that never seemed to quite add up. Based on interviews with the people who were there, No Second Chances tells the dramatic, bizarre, and (at times) embarrassing story of one of recent British history's most feted roads not taken.

    This audiobook is a manifesto for those who are tired of pretending not to care. 
    “Apathy isn’t peace. It’s emotional starvation.” 
    It’s a mirror, a fire, and a hand reaching out from the noise — reminding you that your ability to give a f*** is not your weakness. 
    It’s your power. 
    Give a F*** will make you laugh, think, and maybe cry a little — but more than that, it will make you remember. 
    Remember who you are when you stop numbing, start feeling, and finally let yourself care again.*

    The Economy of Rome - Trade...

    The Roman economy was built upon a complex and interdependent system that evolved from its agrarian roots into a vast network of trade, production, and commerce. From the early Republic to the height of the Empire, Rome’s economic foundation was shaped by its reliance on agriculture, slave labor, and a structured monetary system. These key components allowed the Roman state to sustain its military conquests, support its urban populations, and facilitate long-distance trade across the Mediterranean and beyond. 
    Agriculture served as the backbone of the Roman economy, with the majority of the population engaged in farming. Small-scale subsistence farming dominated early Roman society, but as the Republic expanded, wealthy landowners acquired vast estates known as latifundia. These estates were worked by slaves and tenant farmers, producing surplus crops such as wheat, olives, and grapes, which were essential to both local consumption and trade. The shift from independent farming to large-scale agricultural estates increased economic disparities but also enabled Rome to support a growing urban population and supply its armies. 
    Slavery played a crucial role in sustaining the Roman economy. Enslaved people were not only laborers in agriculture but also worked in mines, workshops, and domestic households. The steady influx of slaves, primarily through military conquests, allowed Rome to maintain high levels of production and economic growth. The reliance on slave labor, however, also created structural weaknesses, as the economy was dependent on a continuous supply of enslaved workers, making it vulnerable during times of military decline.

    "Euthyphro" is a philosophical dialogue written by Plato, set in the Athens of the 5th century BC. The dialogue takes place outside the courthouse, where Socrates meets Euthyphro, a young man who claims to have a deep knowledge of piety and holiness. Euthyphro has come to prosecute his own father for the murder of a slave, whom he believed was guilty of impiety. 
    Socrates questions Euthyphro about his understanding of piety and holiness, and the dialogue becomes a profound exploration of the nature of these concepts. Socrates challenges Euthyphro's definition of piety and holiness, and ultimately concludes that he does not have a clear understanding of what these concepts mean. 
    Throughout the dialogue, Plato raises important questions about the nature of ethics, the relationship between religion and morality, and the limits of human knowledge. "Euthyphro" remains a classic work of philosophy, renowned for its clear and rigorous approach to philosophical inquiry.
