I totally agree, I voted Remain, but I think all leavers would want an agreement that took us out of it the EU and all it’s institutions and which laid out a great new relationship with the EU based on trade and close cooperation on a whole raft of issues but with no political influence over U.K. affairs. Everyone would want that.
But that’s not on offer, the EU do not want to give us a deal of that nature, so if we can’t the great deal we want what do we do? We didn’t vote for Brexit on the condition that we got a deal.
We would all love the the right deal, but if no such deal is on offer, the default has to be to leave without a deal and negotiate our relationship from outside the EU.
