Another week, another new phrase coined in the name of Brexit. This time it’s “Norway-Plus Brexit”, which Amber Rudd has suggested could be a plausible alternative to the deal MPs will vote on next week.

Senior Norwegian politicians and businesses figures have rejected Norway-plus, the increasingly touted British cross-party plan for the UK to leave the EU but join Norway in a free trade trade area inside the EU single market. They attacked the idea as “neither in Norway nor the UK’s interest”. The UK would need Norway’s permission to join its Efta club.
