Now on bbc news, dateline london. Hello, welcome to dateline london. Im carrie gracie. This week a thought experiment. Were going to examine the urgent in tray of the incoming british Prime Minister. When borisjohnson and jeremy hunt threw their hats in the ring, they knew that in tray would be bursting with inexorable brexit challenges. But now theres so much more.
