5 months in, de Pfeffel has realised there is no glory in negotiating brexhit,
only the hope that others are more completely covered in shit.This outburst was his plaintive attempt to be sacked,
so he can resume his more comfortable position,
as a sideline whiner.I hope that May is sufficiently 'invested' in punishing the 'Woeful Three',
that none of them can relinquish the jobs she bestowed upon them,
certainly not before Article 50 is enacted in March 2017.I'm guessing the Saudis can be mollified with some discounts on whatever weapons deals
the current visits to the Gulf are enabling.
I can't see Boris Johnson lasting much longer as Foreign Secretary:

It's really amazing that Number 10 has to issue denials of what the Foreign Secretary says about foreign powers. NB I'm not commenting on what he said, but his role.
