Delighted to announce my successor as Lobby chairman is @jameschappers. Baptism of ice, however, as he leads the crew back to UK #euexitdoor

Train grinds to a halt within tantalising reach of Brussels and the last Eurostar out #euexitdoor

Update: the entirety of the travelling lobby missed the 15.56 Eurostar to London – by 2 minutes. Every other train booked out. #euexitdoor

This is certainly going to endear them to Cameron’s European strategy…
UPDATE: By the skin of their teeth…
Intense joy: kind Eurostar are coupling a 2nd train onto the 16:56 to London, seats for everyone. We're coming home. #euexitdoor
