"Portugal is seeking an economic relationship with the U.K. post Brexit that is as “dense and rich” as it is now, the country’s foreign minister said, but he sees no prospect of the negotiations moving on to discussing those issues later this month."

"Britain, divided
What if a new border confirmed the UK’s new reality: Leave and Remain voters live in two different countries."

David Davis, the new prime minister of Britannia, fought to retain the name “Great Britain,” but was forced to back down due to the inescapable logic that his country is no longer formed of the Greater of the British Isles. But Britannia sounds grander, more historic somehow, he thinks. The passports are blue again too.

"Dense and rich"? So he's met Boris Johnson then.

Can't remember the exact wording but it was of the "Ooh, wouldn't live in London!" type.

She tweeted: "I apologise for the state of London, sir. The mayor has let us all down. It is simply not worth the risk."
In another tweet with video footage of the scene, she simply wrote: "London is not worth the risk."

Well, on The Sunday Politics, Dominic Raab said that he wants to extend the "arm" of friendship to the EU. You could ponder the meaning of that for a while, I suppose.

[Ruth] Davidson described Johnson as a “big intellect and big figure in the party”, adding that the prime minister had her support if she believed he was the best person to be foreign secretary. (Guardian)

Why not just say that he's a boorish self-publicist? Why do people continue to prop up this Boris Johnson fiction - created by himself for himself? I have seen no evidence of his "intellect" - only a memory for quotes and fragments of Latin.

Davidson claimed colleagues had forgotten that they were lucky to be serving the country. “It is not and should never be about private ambition.”

She added that “lying in wait [is Jeremy Corbyn’s] neo-Marxist government ready to take over”.

“It is apparent – even four years out – that the Conservatives face a real challenge in winning the next election,” Major wrote in an article for the Mail on Sunday. He said the alternative was a “Labour government led by two convinced neo-Marxists”.

The Tories appear to have a new catchphrase and theme to replace "Labour's mess".

LONDON — Former Democrat Presidential nominee Hillary Clinton says Brits who supported Brexit in last year’s referendum on European Union membership “voted against modern Britain.”

Clinton, who was defeated by Donald Trump in last year’s US election, told the Sunday Times in an interview: “They voted against modern Britain and the EU, believing that somehow this would be good for their small village. It made no sense.

To be brutal about it, she's about as helpful to the anti-Brexit cause as Blair.
