Quite simply they don't do friendship. Many other important countries do.


To be fair, your team agreed the deal and signed us up to the deal. Maybe they should have read and understood what they were committing us to. It's a bit late now to be complaining about some of the terms, it should have been pretty obvious that the EU would look to add clauses with teeth especially when dealing with a government that's got form for willingness to change the rules post agreement. You reap the seeds you sow.
