His think piece word and concept explorations in such august publications as The National are always a joy. Mibees he was actually better churning out classics such as "lookin' for Linda" and the one where he ain't gonna work for you no more.

Hammond's done even less campaigning than May had prior to being PM. Cowley might put him in, but Tories won't. Maybe he and Mark Carney will turn up in Whitehall in a tank one day.
He must meet quite a few "concerned businessmen". Not that I approve of the revolving door, but it would be quite funny if one of them persuaded him to spend more time with his boardroom.

Heh, apart from Stephen K Bush it's questionble how in the Labour camp they still are. I mean, Chris Deerin ffs. At the first sign of a Centrist Moderniser that looks half plausible and backs the Single Market, I'd think the likes of Cowley would be all over them, regardless of their party background.Last edited by Lang Spoon; 09-07-2017, 19:29.

Today, therefore, I am writing to give effect to the democratic decision of the people of the United Kingdom. I hereby notify the European Council in accordance with Article 50(2) of the Treaty on European Union of the United Kingdom’s intention to withdraw from the European Union. In addition, in accordance with the same Article 50(2) as applied by Article 106a of the Treaty Establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, I hereby notify the European Council of the United Kingdom’s intention to withdraw from the European Atomic Energy Community. References in this letter to the European Union should therefore be taken to include a reference to the European Atomic Energy Community.

As I understand it, we've given notice to leave Euratom in our Article 50 letter. So if we're allowed to stay in Euratom that means we've been allowed to revoke (part of? all of?) our notice to leave.
Why should the EU allow that?

Switzerland are, at least, an associate member of Euratom. Britain could take that route, no? Or would that still be considered out of the realms of reasonableness by the Brexiters because it would mean control by EU institutions?

I was assuming - like an idiot - that perhaps Britain wouldn't mind being subject to ECJ on nuclear stuff, given the wider benefits of nuclear cooperation.
I guess once you go down that road, you might start wondering why we'd withdraw from the EU at all...

Obviously, they'd be interested in a political fix to keep us in, but wouldn't that be very much at their discretion? They'd be fools if they didn't eg make it dependent on getting rid of the rebate.
