Meanwhile, editors at The Sunday Telegraph and The Spectator are having Bregrets.

Leading Brexit advocates notice the shine has come off it
Some of the loudest voices behind the Brexit campaign at The Telegraph seem to be losing faith in the project
Disillusionment is setting in at The Telegraph. All the bright hopes resting on Brexit are slowly dying. Some of its staunchest advocates are finding it hard to disguise their disappointment.
Allister Heath, editor of the Sunday Telegraph and Fraser Nelson, occupying Boris Johnson’s old job as editor of The Spectator, both had articles (£) in the daily edition of The Telegraph this week bemoaning the fact that Brexit isn’t going quite as well as they hoped.
The two editors are having serious doubts about the project they championed in 2016. It is as if they are slowly coming to suspect that they might have been wrong, although neither is quite prepared to say so just yet.
This comes after just ten months outside the EU. Jacob Rees-Mogg once talked about the benefits not materialising for 50 years, so they may have to curb their impatience.
