That’s a fairly uncontroversial, straightforward thought process and one which was helpfully banged on about by the Remain campaign throughout the referendum. And yet, judging that the end result would be worth the effort, the majority voted for it anyway.
This isn’t the end result of Brexit. This is the process of getting Brexit done. And every missed truckload only further underlines our strategic weakness within the EU.

Nobody said it was a controversial thought process. It’s the fact it’s so blatantly obvious is why some sort of mitigation strategy could (or should) have been in place.
I do however think it’s quite a leap to say that every missed truckload shows our own strategic weakness anywhere other than here.
Getting Brexit Done is a lovely phrase. Captures the attention of those with a low attention span just enough to appear to have superficial meaning. However it glosses over the fact that when you scratch beneath the surface there is no plan other than to shrug shoulders and blame the private sector/public at large.
Dare I ask at what point would the Government become accountable? After the 50 years Rees-Mogg speculated it could take for the UK to be better off?
