If the EU saw that the UK was fully prepared in every way to have a hard Brexit, they might have been a bit more prepared to come to an acceptable agreement.

I included this sentence.

The official WTO response versus an "expert". It is the EU insisting on the backstop.


As I've said before, if the Remain side are prepared to accept a 2nd referendum result that also went against them, they they should accept the result of the 1st. They don't accept the 1st, so they would only accept the result a 2nd if it went their way.
I've read some utter tosh in my time but that takes the biscuit. You're effectively saying that the negotiators/politicians etc. Couldn't concentrate on their jobs because people are 'making noise' this is akin to the excuse the child gives to a teacher for not doing their home work. this then leads to a couple of conclusions.

1) The politicians/negotiators aren't capable of doing their jobs and would not be able to secure a good deal full stop

2) The politicians/negotiators aren't competent because they didn't even to think that in such a close result there would be efforts to change the process.

D- Must try much harder
