Good news, Brexit does mean we won’t have to change our car number plates to a fancy Euro-format, so when and if we ever drive to France again, ours will still look like Janet and John compared to all others. And we can keep our personalised plates, although personally, to paraphrase Boris, I would rather be dead in a ditch than have one. Great email to my fave podcast on this: ‘Getting a personalised number plate was so expensive that I decided to change my name by deed poll instead, which was much cheaper. Kind regards, J472 KXW’.

My guess is that they asked the Treasury for a list of anything not involving income tax that they could get away with lightly, although they should already have learned from the winter fuel stuff that all publicity is not good publicity.
