  • Exterior of the Smack Boys home at Ramsgate's Harbour, on 8th January 2019, in Ramsgate, Kent, England. The Sailors’ Church and Harbour Mission, was built for the spiritual guidance and physical help for the men and boys who made up the crews of the sailing smacks who fished out of Ramsgate in the nineteenth century. The young apprentices were called Smack Boys and when ashore, were provided with some comfort in the rooms above the church and later, in the Smack Boys Home. The Port of Ramsgate has been identified as a 'Brexit Port' by the government of Prime Minister Theresa May, currently negotiating the UK's exit from the EU. Britain's Department of Transport has awarded to an unproven shipping company, Seaborne Freight, to provide run roll-on roll-off ferry services to the road haulage industry between Ostend and the Kent port - in the event of more likely No Deal Brexit. In the EU referendum of 2016, people in Kent voted strongly in favour of leaving the European Union with 59% voting to leave and 41% to remain.

  • In a London street, an apprentice in the bakery or milk industry endures a shower of fresh milk being poured over his head after a dusting of flour. This traditional ritual is usually performed on the unfortunate young man when he has successfully passed his apprenticeship term in the company - his mates participating in making his day as miserable as possible. But he takes it with good humour as it means he is now initiated into the industry.
