I sincerely doubt any of the extremists on either side are ready to move on.

The Lib Dems are federalists. They are also irrelevant so they can afford a protest vote no matter how intellectually incoherent it is. The SNP ... well what can you say about that shower? They used to have intellectual consistency, prior to 1992 when they were as Eurosceptic as it got. Back then their desire for Scottish sovereignty allowed them to understand the growing threat posed by the EU. Since Alex Salmond turned them into the anyone-but-the-Tories party, they are tragically no longer able to acknowledge the logic of their own position.

If the trade deal promised Scotland a free unicorn that crapped pure gold every Tuesday they’d still find a reason to oppose it, because it’s a Tory project. Their bankruptcy knows no depths.
