Because of this dither and deliberate delay from the Remainiac MPs - We are still in a transitional phase of Brexit, we trying to negotiate an arrangement with the EU still.
Those "Remainiac MP's of the last parliament" were voted in after the referrendum. Those Remainiac MP's were voted in via the same democratic process this country has used for centuries. But sure, let's just say remainers went on a rampage and thwarted everything, it was a shambles it was a disaster. Sure.

We then had another election where Tory/leaver MPs were overwhelmingly voted in, in a landslide not seen for decades. It was those MP's that voted for this WA. It was those MP's that ignored the warnings.

But it's the EU that's at fault, right?

Never mind that the likes of yourselves have been cursing the EU for years now, that Boris himself doesn't miss a beat in telling you how awful the EU are and that the ERG couldn't wait to walk away from the EU - they still signed an agreement that allowed the corrupt EU to get one over our country? Really? If the EU is so terrible, why would you sign something that could clearly be interpereted in such a way? Why give them that ammunition?

Couldn't be short-sighted politicians or sheer incompetance, nooo....

But that's my point. The question asked was "what was the alternative to the WA?". The alternative was nothing. No deal. Always has been. The slogan has been battered around that many times, how could we forget?

I thought this was answered, but I'll do it again - we signed the WA. It's a legally binding document. The EU is as legally bound to it as we are and they're exercising their legal rights.

Is it bad for the UK? Yes. Is the EU taking advantage of a bad agreement? Maybe. Hell, lets say yes as well. I would want our country to get the best deal possible using any legal means possible. The EU is playing their hand, you can like it, you can lump it, but the time to stop it was back in January.

Much like the time to stop brexit was 2016. Both ships have sailed. The only thing you can possibly do to stop it is to burn the whole ship down.
