Back in July last year, Johnsom was waffling on about how, given that we could put a man on the moon in the 60s, how hard could Brexit be? At the time, I thought the comparison was pretty stupid and revealed rather more than the man himself realised. See my Letter on the topic.
Still pursuing the space metaphor, the chocolate teapot named his proposed ramping up of testing capacity in the UK as 'Project Moonshot' - only for it to be quietly cancelled a few days later.
And we also know that Brexit has already cost more than the International Space Station (see the London Economic Journal article).
Pleasingly, it at least gives Steve Bell the chance to take the piss.
