"Well, Tony Blair did his absolute best to politicise a civil service that had been made neutral by Gladstone 140 years earlier. Yes, of course it is true: we have some people sitting in judgment who have actively been engaged in the process of European unity, and they – in those specific cases – should have absented themselves. But the real point I am making is dithering. Had the new Prime Minister triggered Article 50 immediately, there would be no court cases. We would not have Mr Barnier talking down to us. We would be getting on with doing the best we can under Article 50, though I am concerned – listening to your colleague, Mr Verhofstadt –that once we trigger Article 50 it may become so unworkable that we simply have to say, ‘We’re going, goodbye!’"@en1
