As always, sensible advice from the President

Theresa May appeared on the Andrew Marr show this morning to discuss her meeting with President Trump this week.

Trump had previously come out and said that his suggestion to Theresa May on how to handle Brexit negotiations was ‘too tough’ for her.

When asked by Andrew Marr this morning what that suggestion was, the Prime Minister replied: “He told me I should sue the EU. Not negotiate, sue them.”

She continued: “But interestingly what the President also said at that press conference was ‘don’t walk away from the negotiations because then you’re stuck’.”
