Ooh does that mean Junckers will resign like Cameron did?

Junkers and Davis are set to resign at the same time according to 'reports'. They could have a joint party.

I doubt the sentiments expressed are an entirely unique view.

The government need to get a grip of themselves.

Choreography.

Liam Fox:

We have already begun discussions with the United States, Australia and New Zealand about future relationships.
We have established a trade policy group to lead our trade negotiations of the future and recruited the terrific Crawford Falconer from New Zealand to head up a new trade profession, creating new skills and career opportunities in trade.
We have established 12 working groups with 17 countries from India to Brazil and from the Gulf to Australia.
As ministers we have travelled to over 100 global markets, promoting British exports of goods and services, encouraging inward investment to the United Kingdom and seeking overseas investment opportunities so that British companies develop a genuinely global footprint.
Am I optimistic about the future? Absolutely.
When people ask if I’m a glass half full or half empty man – I just tell them that I’m Scottish and the glass isn’t big enough.

That's a lot of potential - yet the naysayers insist in a Fraser-style cry of "We're a' doomed"!

We'll still eat yogurt post brexit. Go figure.

Remainers assured me EU business isn't bothered about the UK market, that they will easily find new untapped markets in Romania.


Why are they investing in this laughing stock UK cesspit?

David Davis explains what makes the British good Europeans, and how we can remain so after Brexit:

"And for those who claim that we are not good Europeans
Well, did you know that we spend one and half times as much defence as the European average? That is how we stationed troops on Europe’s border in Estonia and in Poland.
I call that being a good European.
We spend over twice the European average helping the poorest people on the planet.
Including in Africa where for many, British aid acts as a ladder for people to climb out of the hands of people smugglers.
I call that being a good European.
And we are the first to help our neighbours in the fight against terror … as both our Belgian and our French colleagues found last year.
I call that being a good European."

It is after all about Europe.
