Over the past few years, that is what Gina has done!   On May 14th 2016 Gina left Sydney on a bicycle, with everything she would need to be self sufficient as she cycled 2,700km up the east coast of Australia to Cairns, where she stayed for 2 months.   In early 2018 Gina decided to take on her first big solo winter expedition, skiing 60 days from North Cape to Jäckvik  in Sweden, having never skied before.

CSIS is pleased to host a discussion on the trade challenges, opportunities, and future paths of the European Economic Area (EU member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway) and the European Free Trade Association (a trade bloc consisting of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland) featuring H.S.H. Prince Alois von und zu Liechtenstein, Liechtenstein's acting head of state since 2004. Recent discussions in the United Kingdom have highlighted the EFTA as a possible path for a future UK-EU relationship (known as "Norway Plus") which makes this a particularly timely discussion with Prince Alois, who will offer opening reflections about Liechtenstein's experience with the EEA and EFTA over the past 25 years and the implications of a potential no-deal Brexit. Following Prince Alois’ remarks, a distinguished panel will describe their own experiences with the EEA and EFTA, the future of these entities at a moment of change for the EU’s single market in anticipation of Brexit, and the implications for transatlantic trade relations with EEA and EFTA in light of potential US-UK and US-EU free trade agreements.This event was made possible through the generous support of the Embassy of the Principality of Liechtenstein.

At an epic point in the Brexit saga I reflect on the still pivotal role of T May, the less pivotal but important stance of J Corbyn, J Bercow and all MPs: Parliament might want to take us back from the cliff's edge but will the weak but obstinate May be willing to be an instrument of parliament? Can you hear her utter the words " I will negotiate Norway Plus" or "I'll call a referendum" If not-what will happen? As a bonus I watched Fiona Bruce present Question Time.  

We speak to Jess Philips, Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley - who thinks a second referendum is the way ahead and Nick Boles - Tory MP for Grantham and Stamford in Lincolnshire. He thinks the answer to the Brexit conundrum is Norway Plus - where we stay in the single market and the customs union.

John McDonnell tipped the Labour party towards supporting a second Brexit referendum this week. Does this make it any more likely to happen?

With Jim Pickard, Robert Shrimsley, Martin Sandbu and Miranda Green. Produced by Anna Dedhar and Harry Robertson See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

John and Merryn discuss Theresa May's Brexit deal; what might happen next; the chances of an EFTA, EEA or "Norway Plus" deal; and what happens if we end up with no deal at all. Plus, why the notion that the UK is "uninvestable" is preposterous, and indeed how we may soon see an unprecedented investing opportunity.

How are the numbers looking for UK PM Theresa May in the House of Commons for that crucial vote on December 11? And what does Norway Plus mean? RTÉ's Europe Editor Tony Connelly, London Correspondent Fiona Mitchell and Deputy Foreign Editor Colm Ó Mongáin look at the possible scenarios facing the UK.

**Paddy Wants To Know Brexit** is a podcast that seeks to explain Brexit to an Irish audience. Each episode will address what's being happening in the preceding few weeks in the messy world of Brexit negotiations and explain how it will affect Ireland. The hosts, Brian Mahon, Jack Good and Niamh Mahon will then interview an someone who has something to say on Brexit, it could be anyone from an academic to a farmer, or even someone who thinks Brexit is a good idea. This week's podcast looks back on phase one of negotiations and asks 'did Ireland get a good deal from the first round of negotiations?' Some of use are not convinced it will hold. The gang also discuss the internal politics of the Tory party and their attitude to Brexit overall. Later in the podcast the guys interview Paddy Brussels, our EU source, who seems a bit confused by what a Norway plus deal would actually look like for the UK and whether it's even feasible in the first place.'
