Uk's "ambassador To The Eu" Resigns
http://
I meant to ask this before Christmas when Sir Ivan Rogers poked his nose into Brexit. Why does the UK (or anybody else for that matter) require an Ambassador to the EU? With the exception of those sent to the United Nations, I understood Ambassadors to be representatives sent by one sovereign nation to another. The EU is not a sovereign nation and there is certainly no reason why member nations should send "ambassadors" to an organisation where they send Commissioners and MEPs.
Sir Ivan, it is said, has resigned to give a new incumbent the chance to get his feet under the (dining) table before negotiations to leave begin. Surely this is an opportunity to cut the post entirely?
