If Brexit were a slapstick 1970’s movie, it would be funny. ‘Carry
on Brexit’ would be a fitting title for this utter farce that is more ridiculous
than I ever imagined it could be. When we left the union, I thought someone

about Boris Johnson’s new government wanting to attract the best talent from
