Why is everyone doing that weird stance? Is it supposed to look powerful?

It’s called a power pose - it’s supposed to make you feel stronger and more positive and gained popularity after a TED talk a few years ago

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_posing

It has since been disowned by one of the originators and is generally regarded as bullshit.

When thinking about today’s cabinet subcommittee customs meeting remember:

1. Both gvt customs options already rejected by Brussels
2. Neither will be ready for 3-5 years anyway
3. Neither may ever work
4. The “partnership” might not buy off Tory customs rebellion

Enjoy!
