I know from experience that they don't much like Conservative politicians and their ideas and so their reports and opinions can be rather negative at times.
Problem is, they seem to weigh up the cost of all the disadvantages they see without taking account of the considerable opportunities of getting out of this dreadful organisation of Eurocrats.

Bags of assumptions there on their political leanings and pretty much all wrong. I've met lots of civil servants. For their sins 90% voted Brexit and said it's the best thing ever to happen to their careers. Umlike most people on the UK. they're probably right. So if anything, their analysis would be pro-Brexit.

Theresa May’s Brexit advisers are secretly considering whether Britain could strike a customs union deal covering trade in goods with the EU, a move that would severely limit the UK’s ability to strike out on its own.
The Financial Times has been told by three UK officials that the discussions are “live” in Whitehall.
