Before we go any further, I realise that many of you must have been listening to this podcast thinking,

I really like this. I really like the sound of the New European, but I'm not quite sure I want to

spend loads of money to find out if I do like it. So I have got a proposal for you, a whole month

of the New European for one pound. If you like it, you can carry on paying five pounds a month.

That's a little more than a pound a week. But if you've been sitting there thinking I'd like to get

the New European, but I'm not sure I really want to spend the money, now's the time to go for it.

Just one pound and it's yours for a month. Go to the new European.com.ukuk

forward slash two mats. This offer is the best you'll get anywhere and it's exclusive to two

mats podcast listeners. And you can cancel any time you like. So it's an unrepeatable offer to

dip your toe into a whole new world of

journalism. Hello and welcome to the new European podcast. I'm back from my holidays and I can hear

the sigh of relief. I'm joined by Steve Anglesey. Hello. And we'll get to the news firstly. Later on,

I'm going to be joined by Jerry Scott, who's going to look in some depth at mental health and how

Brexit will impact the mental health services our NHS provides. And then, of course, we will, as

always, get to crowning our Brexiteer of the week.

But Steve, firstly...

We've got some position papers.

They lay out our intentions.

It's good, isn't it?

Because the EU said we couldn't talk about trade and the customs union

until we've settled the divorce bill and the

rights of the UK, EU citizens in the UK and vice versa, and we'd sorted out the Irish border.
