The BBC `understands` - in other words just a bit of unsubstantiated gossip, that Andrea Leadsom is trying to get Appeaser May to change some aspects of the draft document, primarily about the NI/Irish border. That should go down well in Brussels.

I thought he might be there to carry the civil servants bags. I can't see any other need for him.

Clearly a 'yes man', put in place to appear to support whatever May says.

Barclay is the youngest of three brothers. His father was a trade union official, and his mother worked in the civil service.[5]

He was brought up in Lancashire, and educated at King Edward VII School, a co-educational independent school in Lytham St Annes. After completing his A levels, he joined the army on a Gap Year Commission, attending the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and served as a Second Lieutenant with the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers for five months.[6][7] After this he read history at Peterhouse, Cambridge and later studied at the College of Law, Chester, qualifying as a solicitor in 1998.[5]

If his farther was a trade union official, what the hell is he doing in the nasty party?
