How is seeking a deal with the EU while Brexiting a 'cliff edge', Dave? You'll need to explain that to me! This is the Government's stated intention, but of course we can't force the EU to do what it doesn't want to do. So, the only alternative for us if the voters' wishes are to be implemented is WTO conditions, and despite the labels put on this option, it is most certainly not a cliff edge. It is a wonderful opportunity.

Seriously, what else would you have the government do? Give up and say, "Voters, you lose?"

All the Brexiters on Theresa's team are saying is "Adhere to the wishes of the British people" and that is exactly what she is doing.

Rather than slagging the government off at every turn, it might be rather more productive to say what you would advocate in order to bring about the result of the referendum - to leave the EU.

The decision of the voters was to leave the EU. Your compromise would not achieve that, so it is not a credible alternative.

TM is attempting to thrash out a deal with the EU, but it takes two to tango.
