Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
No surprise to anyone who's followed what France and Germany were saying in the months after the Brexit vote. Not sure what the UK can do about this so I'd welcome hearing any negotiating tips that will change the EU 27's minds.

Quote:
European leaders will formally reject British demands to hold trade talks at the same time as negotiating the terms of the UK’s ‘divorce’ from the EU, leaving both sides heading for an early stand-off in the Brexit talks.

The hardline EU response will be outlined in draft negotiating guidelines that will be distributed by the European Council to the remaining 27 member states at a closed-door meeting in Brussels.

Theresa May’s request that the terms of the future UK-EU partnership be negotiated “alongside” the terms of the divorce – rejected by the German chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday - was shot down again on Thursday, this time by the outgoing French president, Francois Hollande.
