Not at all. The electorate voted for Brexit - a straight divorce. It is the government that has been trying to get the best of both worlds, and why not try, indeed?

Whether or not the EU decides to sacrifice a limb so that it can feel satisfied with itself that it has given us a black eye and deterred others from attempting an escape will not alter the bright future we have outside the EU. We've done it before and we will do it again.

Industry will react positively to having the shackles of the EU removed. The government is here to aid those industries in the short term who are having difficulty in making a quick adjustment.
