Great news for the UK, we now have the opportunity to get someone competent and less acerbic in place.

Mail article here - it says more information later tonight. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...lks-Boris.html

Coincidentally, Frost wrote an article for today's FT blaming everyone but himself for the lack of progress made in Northern Ireland. I wonder if this was planned as part of the run-up to his resignation?

Resigned before he was pushed, I think. He was increasingly distancing himself from reality so suspect he knew his days were numbered. And the change in policy by the UK on the ECJ initially denied by Frost may have been decided higher up the foodchain, thus undermining him. As the Brexit pantomime goes, "He's not behind you!", he being Johnson.

The next person should be recruited on ability, not the fact that they're a Conservative Lord who favoured Brexit.
