As reported by Guido, he’s the sixth this year. We’re some way beyond the point where senior establishment remainers throwing in the towel can be called a surprise. They’re shipping out as and when they finally realise that good old fashioned civil service obstructionism can’t help them water down Brexit. It’s obvious from the EU’s continued intransigence that close association and dynamic alignment or, in the event of no deal, a continuing say in our affairs based on some obscure wording in the WA is their end game. I’d be astonished if lawyers working within the civil service and familiar with the WA text aren’t fully aware of this. He’s been rumbled, he’s walked, game over.
