Banging on about it every single day helps nobody.

Another mocked: You don’t need to be Turing Smart to know when your opinion no longer matters about something. You do however need to be a realist.

Cristian Terhes, of the European Conservatives and Reformists group, said some in the European Parliament had let their “anti-Brexit agendas” get in the way of doing their real jobs. His remarks come after more than 100 MEPs signed a letter calling for the European Commission to invite British students to participate in the EU’s Erasmus student exchange programme. Boris Johnson decided against rejoining the scheme after Brexit because the bloc’s offer did not good value for British taxpayers.

Influential MEPs want top eurocrat Ursula von der Leyen to undermine our Union and invite Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to join EU schemes. The move is seen as red meat for Nicola Sturgeon’s Scottish nationalists whose independence campaign is rooted in pro-Brussels sentiment. One insider suggested it was a deliberate “middle finger” to Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s efforts to reunite the UK after Brexit.

Spanish foreign minister Arancha Gonzalez Laya said the move to not participate in the bloc’s Erasmus programme was to the detriment of British and European students. Boris Johnson refused to sign up to the scheme despite holding intensive talks about joining it during the wrangling over the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement. Insiders say the Prime Minister shunned rejoining Erasmus because it favours middle class children and does not represent his “levelling up” agenda.
