That Tusk-May conversation in full
Here is a fly on the wall video of Donald Tusk giving his answer to Theresa May when she asked him to reopen the Withdrawal Agreement in order to discuss possible changes to the Backstop.
As would be expected, it contains a few - ahem - choice words

Did anyone catch the end of the BBC News at 6? Recapping the main story of Teresa May heading to Brussels, they displayed a wartime video of a Spitfire coming in to land. Hilarious.

Re: That Tusk-May conversation in full
What I've wondered for some time, is how does she get to Brussels, RAF? Queen's Flight, does that still exist? Ryanair? Or even Eurostar?

Probably the Airbus Voyager from RAF 32nd squadron https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_trans ... IP_Voyager

Thanks Scott, that sounds right, 156 seater sounds a bit excessive though.
Good answer too, Mel

No - that was Margaret Thatcher.
Messrs Junker and Barnier .... she would have flattened them with a swish of her handbag and steamrollered on.

Surely RAF BAe 146 is more likely. Much cheaper than the large airbus for such a short hop. And it could go from City Airport.

Annoyingly, the Six is only available on iPlayer for 24 hours.
