I would point out that under our system of Government, it’s Parliament’s role (and responsibility) to check and challenge the work of the Government, make and change laws, check and approve Government spending, and to debate the important issues of the day.

In most places, the negotiating position is agreed by the internal groups, before being presented to the external parties - that way, you don’t have this kerfuffle...
