Prince Charles seemed to have addressed Brexit yesterday as he visited the Cabinet Office to speak to Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
The heir apparent made the visit alongside wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, joking that he didn’t want the couple to get in the way of the Prime Minister’s busy day as he reshuffled the cabinet.

“I just want to say for me (it is) fascinating always to see what is happening in the heart of government in the Cabinet Office,” continued the royal. “When I was much, much younger I remember spending a certain amount of time going round various departments.
