I recall that in May 2016, the then still Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond, known to be a Eurosketptic, visited us and at the time hinted that once Brexit became yesterday’s migraine, that there would be fresh hope for the UK to engage in constructive talks with a new Spanish Government.

I don’t actually recall, in all my years, from the time I was able to comprehend the world around me, of having heard a British politician say otherwise; i.e. the hope of engaging in constructive talks with a `new` Spanish government.
