Johnson's Brexit vision 'impossible'
Boris Johnson is offering Britain a vision of life outside the EU that is "intellectually impossible", a leading European finance minister has said.
The foreign secretary reportedly told a Czech paper the UK was likely to leave the EU customs union post-Brexit - but still wanted to trade freely after.
However, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, the Dutch finance minister, said such an option "doesn't exist" and was "impossible".
Number 10 said a decision on membership of the customs union had not been made.
Jeroen Dijsselbloem was speaking in an interview with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Newsnight's James O'Brien.
