But surely the Remainers can concede that the EU is not nice to deal with and there are real grounds for breaking away properly.
Who would have thought that an organisation would try to negotiate the best deal for themselves - what is the world coming to?

And as for the assertion that has been raised that our negotiators "didn’t try hard enough" - I would just point out that the man who also asked for gravity-free areas, telepathy for every citizen and the Beatles to get back together is furious it hasn’t even been attempted.
