Brexit

[Oracle]

I entirely agree. I do not know a brexiteer who ever thought Brussels would negotiate in good faith. Brussels intransigence is why Many of us wanted to leave.

But I think May thought too highly of them. She is a remainer who hoped to show Brussels in a good light, but ended up seeing the reality. She accepted the negotiating order. If she had expected talks to fail, why then agree only to talk about things Brussels demanded, not what is important to the UK?
Why overrule davies on the negotiating order? It does not make sense..
I think May is to blame for much of the impasse. We should have walked away 2 years ago when they refused to talk trade.

A scenario for the 'experts' to discuss.

From day 1, May knew there was no point in negotiating with the EU, who were intent on frustrating the process. Hence preparations for no deal with the EU started in earnest over 2 years ago, and are significantly advanced. Unfortunately too many MPs failed to understand the situation, had their own agendas, and have attempted to prevent no deal. Whether their votes are legally binding is unclear.

Maybe no deal always was meant to be the outcome.
