I wish the Danish soccer team the best of luck. I thank the Irish team for entertaining us over the years. It would have been a high point for the players on the Irish soccer team to go to the World Cup and we hope that there will be brighter days ahead.

Unfortunately, there are not brighter days ahead when it comes to Brexit. In fact, there are 499 days to go.
