Bit by bit, slowly but surely, the folly of what they have committed to doing is beginning to hit home to Brexiteers. And they have started to turn on each other in the most vicious manner imaginable.

'Those in Government who favour leaving nuclear body Euratom are morons', says former Vote Leave campaign director
Dominic Cummings also criticised the 'truck loads of crap ideas' from Theresa May’s first nine months in office
Government officials who favour leaving the nuclear body Euratom are “morons”, according to the former campaign director of Vote Leave, who also criticised the “truck loads of crap ideas” from Theresa May’s first nine months in office.
Mr Cummings, who was one of the most prominent back-room operatives in the Vote Leave campaign during the EU referendum, launched the tirade on Twitter, suggesting it was “near-******** on every dimension” to want to leave the nuclear body.
It comes after the former Conservative culture minister Ed Vaizey and the senior Labour MP Rachel Reeves used a joint article in the Sunday Telegraph to condemn the decision to pull out of Euratom, the European civil nuclear regulator, which is underpinned by the European Court of Justice (ECJ).

Although the treaties relating to Euratom are separate to those keeping Britain in the EU, the agency requires members to be under the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice (ECJ), which Ms May has insisted the UK must withdraw from as part of Brexit.

Mr Cummings, who was also a special adviser to Michael Gove, also urged those in the Cabinet, including Boris Johnson and Mr Gove, to urge the Prime Minister leaving Euratom is “unacceptable ********” and “must be ditched or she will be”.
He continued: “Use first fortnight of August to ditch truck loads of crap ideas foisted on us by shambolic 1st 9 months of May government, reboot."
