Pretty sure we released sewage before Brexit. And we should have our own laws, why would we be bound by EU laws any more than allowing the US EPA to dictate what we do?

It kind of reminds of the time when they wanted to get rid of redundant road signs and then they couldn't find any.

Equally the real objective might be to give JRM a job that keeps him out of the way of the grown ups.

A field day for those who like to make jokes about JRM being stuck in the past - he's been appointed Minister for Brexit years after it happened.

And very shortly after the previous incumbent bailed out having achieved precisely nothing during his tenure...

The best news is that the companies are having more paperwork and red tape due to Brexit.
