    OT: New job openings for the unflappable

    The government has started to recruit civilians to work in an emergency command and control centre being set up to make sure Britain runs smoothly in the aftermath of a potential no-deal Brexit.

    Briefing notes issued by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) to recruitment agencies state the EU Exit Emergencies Centre (EUXE) could stay open “potentially for two years”.

    The chief executive of the civil service, John Manzoni, has already said it is looking to second 5,000 civil servants, with volunteers sought in non-Brexit departments including the Department for Education and the Department for International Development.

    But with 50 days to go to Brexit, the civil service is widening the net to recruit external contractors to help with what appears to be a military-style “Gold command”, which will operate out of offices close to Westminster.

    According to briefing notes seen by the Guardian, the government is looking for “unflappable” individuals to help brief ministers and the Cabinet Office on any unfolding emergencies in a no-deal scenario.

    Candidates are being offered between £300 and £400 a day and must be prepared to start by the end of this month.

    Quite funny to see you two dinosaurs still clinging to your dream of a hard Brexit! It won't happen, because it would never get passed by parliament. The two options left are a soft Brexit or a no-deal Brexit. I think sanity will prevail in the end and a no-deal scenario will be avoided due to the chaos it will cause, but with this shower running it, who knows?
