Re: [Updated] The UK’s future relationship with the EU
The civil service has a finite capacity and much of it has been diverted into crisis planning. To the extent that all the functions of government should continue, then obviously transition planning and negotiations should continue. But it is absurd to believe that anything in government can carry on unaffected by the present crisis.
I would much prefer the transition to end at the end of the original agreed period. But I think there is a snowball's chance in hell of that actually happening now. We are, realistically, in for a 6-9 month extension.
