When Amber Rudd resigned on Saturday night, she offered the explanation that there is “insufficient planning for a deal” by Downing Street.
The only flaw with this explanation is that Amber Rudd did not sit on a single one of No. 10’s Brexit committees.
So she was not privy to negotiating information…
Rudd attended neither Downing Street’s strategic Brexit ‘XS’ committees chaired by Boris, nor did she regularly attend the daily Brexit operations ‘XO’ meetings chaired by Michael Gove.
Unsurprisingly, big leaky cabinet meetings don’t deal with the particulars of negotiation.
Is it any wonder Rudd wasn’t knowledgeable about the Government’s negotiating strategy..?
