The Architects Of Brexit Know The Game Is Up
Michael Gove is not my favourite person. He's obviously untrustworthy. He has nothing on his CV that commands any respect. And he is the man that brought Dominic Cummings into parliament. He does however have one unusual trait for a Europhobe in that he is thoughtful. In a movement that is all about instant gratification he at least is thinking ahead. So it is fascinating to hear his reply to a question about other countries leaving the EU.

So far from imagining that Britain is to be a trailblazer for a general exit from the EU he sees it continuing to exist and to develop. This is not exactly an unusual forecast, and it is pretty much the assumption of everyone around the world.
