obviously Andrew is mainly right. However I take issue with the matter of the Olly Robbins part of the quote. He is not impartial and so far as I can see, the tail wagged the dog in so far as the ill-fated Chequers plan was Robbins’ work of dark art. Robbins the Remainer.

... And another thing. If the Torygraph is to be believed, TM has gone in with her extension offer outwith Cabinet support. IMO, this really puts her in dead man’s shoes in the parliamentary sense.

John Redwood put it well on the Radio when he said that the EU would be laughing all the way to the bank as we pay more in, with our position even weaker and no intention on their part of giving way.
