I'd say more likely France will use it for leverage during the exit negotiations, given that they are going to be handled by the Council rather than the Commission.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Is it right Theresa May in prepared to accept freedom of movement for the single market? If this is the case, why the referendum? We may as well stay as we are.

This was stated many many times by the 'remain' campaign. Access to the single market is dependent on the freedom of movement
I think Switzerland may be about to also find out this one...

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Some interesting thoughts by Kenneth Clarke, the former Conservative chancellor, mocking three of the leading candidates in the Tory leadership contest.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
I like Ken Clarke, he really doesn't give a toss who he upsets. Loved it when he was made Health minister - an overweight, chain smoking. spirit drinker...... He and Hestletine were usually right on the EU but his party never listened.

It was cool. Channel 5 News played it. The thing is, he's right from what I can tell.
