No wonder this letter was leaked. And look at the hopeless response proposed on page 2: (1) ask businesses to lobby the Commission and (2) co-ordinate Govt depts. What did Mr. Davis think Brexit would involve - oh yes, he thought we'd be able to get a trade deal with Germany!!! xitter.cf/PickardJE/status/95050…

Friends of Justine Greening tell me: “She should have absolutely expected to continue... she saw people who have been massively disloyal, others not competent, allowed to stay in Cabinet, and even given expanded briefs”

As @JamesColdwellUK says, the grassroots movements of @Labour4EU & @Remain_Labour need our Labour MPs to stand up.
