Re: Brexit discussion

I wasn't aware you've been present in the cabinet meetings all this time and these negotiations have been made harder then they needed to be because of the attitude the EU had going into this. I know you prefer to attribute all blame on the UK government and let the EU off scott free but despite your opinion there is growing opinion that the problem is the EU and it's desire to punish the UK. They are not doing it out of any real dislike for the UK they are doing it to try and prevent other members taking our route in the future. When it suits the EU it's happy to forget it's rules to achieve a desired outcome and the irish border issue is solvable and could be made to work but it takes two willing to agree on the solution.

As i said if we said enough of this and walked away from the negotiations we'd quickly get a change of attitude but theresa may having weakened her position and being a remainer at heart doesn't have the stomach to do it. We voted to fully leave the EU not stay in some areas and a withdrawal that doesn't allow us to agree our own trade deals is a big red line to cross and will create major problems.
