Brexit Sub Committee Hold a Country Awayday
Theresa May and her senior ministers will today attempt to hammer out a deal over the government's approach to Brexit when they meet at Chequers.
The Brexit sub-committee will meet at Chequers and spend the day attempting to do what they have thusfar failed to do, namely agree on what we need/want from Briext.
It will of course fail:
1 Given they have failed thusfar, one day will not bring forth agreement.
2 Hammond and Johnson are diametrically opposed to what we need/want from Brexit.
3 May neither has the authority or respect of the Cabinet to be able to knock heads together.
It will turn out to be nothing more than a day in the country.

A Question of Tone
NEW Jacob Rees-Mogg: "The government's tone on Brexit needs to fundamentally change. If [Brexit's opportunities are] taken off the table then Brexit becomes only a damage limitation exercise. The British people did not vote for that. They didn't vote for management of decline."
