They are very lucky he's there, he seems to be the only sane person in a position of responsibility.

Yesterday he allowed a certain number of amendments, in an effort to allow Parliament to express its will, since neither the Government (May) nor the Opposition (Corbyn) have clearly stated what they want in terms that can actually be implemented (gross irresponsibility on the part of both).

Unfortunately Parliament bungled it, and passed the amendment that says "If only the EU would be reasonable, the Irish border would just go away"... The majority is in cloud cuckoo land with May, for whom this hopeless outcome is apparently a triumph.
